Lakeview Estates sits on a 0.2-acre lot that backs up to a scenic horse farm, and you'll find a Ranch/Rambler style home built in 2001 with 4,165 square feet of living space that's got three bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two full and one half-bath, so there's plenty of room for comfortable living, and the finished basement with full windows, a sliding glass door walkout, and another half bath gives residents space to entertain or relax, plus there's a hot tub down there that was added in February 2020, which is a nice touch for those who like to soak. The home's got public water and sewer, forced air heating, central air, and a gas fireplace in the family room where you'll feel cozy in any season, and you'll see big vaulted ceilings in the breakfast room, an open concept design, and mostly hardwood floors that make the place feel easy to move around and bright most days. There's a formal dining space that works well for family gatherings, a living room with a tray ceiling and recessed lighting, and a kitchen with white cabinets, a two-tiered island with barstool seating, newer stainless steel appliances, and a big pantry with custom closet organizers, so storing food and supplies isn't an issue, and the kitchen opens right into both the great room and dining room through a large arched opening, which keeps it feeling open and connected. The master bedroom has vaulted ceilings, two walk-in closets with organizers, and a big bathroom with a double vanity, hair and makeup area, Jacuzzi tub, and a five-head spa shower, plus there's a front bedroom that can be an office or whatever space you need, while a second bedroom on the main level has its own walk-in closet and full bath. Upstairs, a big loft area works well as a third bedroom, letting people spread out or host family.
Outside, the home has a covered deck overlooking the backyard, a garage for two vehicles with a refinished slab, and lighted sidewalks with scenic walking trails through the community, so getting fresh air is pretty easy. The community at Lakeview Estates is designed for folks 55 and up who want a maintenance-free lifestyle, with a homeowners' association that takes care of things like trash, snow removal for driveways and walkways, lawn care, mulching, and even plant maintenance in the front beds-which means less worry about chores. Residents can join neighbors for gatherings, parties, and outdoor activities, or use community amenities like the clubhouse, fitness room, walking trail, library, movie theater, and spa room. The area is easy to get to with nearby transportation routes and train stations, and cities like Wilmington, D.C., Baltimore, and New York City aren't far for anyone who likes day trips.
Lakeview Estates does more than independent living; they have assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, and respite care, so residents can get help with daily needs, medication, medical care, wound care, and even specialized programs for dementia when it's needed, and the building's set up to help with non-ambulatory care with supervision, transfers, and help with bathing and dressing. There are plenty of services like housekeeping, laundry, move-in help, and meals served three ways: dining room, all-day, or restaurant-style, including special diet options and a chef on staff. Residents get private bathrooms, cable TV, high-speed internet, telephones, air conditioning, kitchenettes, and rooms that come furnished. With daily scheduled activities, fitness programs, game nights, movie nights, arts and crafts, outdoor areas, and resident-run clubs, people always have something to do. An emergency alert system adds peace of mind, and the community is set up so folks can make the space feel like home and enjoy time with others, or find a little peace and quiet when needed.
