7 EMMA DRIVE

WILMINGTON, DE 19810

Tucked away in the small, close-knit neighborhood of Marianne in North Wilmington, this expansive 4-bedroom, 2 full and 2 half bath colonial is one of those rare opportunities that doesn’t come along often. With only a handful of homes in the community, properties here are seldom available, giving the area a true hidden-gem feel. Just off Shipley Road, this light brick home makes an immediate statement with its impressive size, long private driveway, and attached two-car garage. Step inside to a grand foyer with a sweeping staircase and light hardwood floors that run throughout the entire first level. Traditional in layout yet generous in scale, the formal dining room sits to the left and a spacious living room to the right, both ideal for entertaining or everyday comfort. A versatile first-floor bonus room adds flexibility, perfect as a home office, playroom, guest room, or creative space. Toward the back of the home, the updated kitchen features cream-colored cabinetry, granite countertops, a neutral backsplash, stainless steel appliances, pantry storage, and room for casual dining. The kitchen opens seamlessly into an expansive family room filled with natural light from skylights above. A fireplace anchors the space, while sliding glass doors lead to the rear deck—creating an effortless flow for indoor-outdoor gatherings. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms provide comfort and privacy. The hall bath offers a double vanity and tub-shower combination. The primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with a bright ensuite bath featuring double sinks, a step-in shower, soaking tub, dual closets, and an additional flex area currently used as a gym, but could be perfect for a nursery, office, or sitting room. The partially finished lower level adds approximately 1,000 square feet of additional living space and is truly an entertainer’s dream. Multiple gathering areas, a wet bar with seating for eight, a beverage fridge, and a convenient half bath make this level ideal for hosting. An unfinished section provides valuable extra storage. Located near top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes (with quick access to Philadelphia and the airport), this North Wilmington home offers exceptional space, classic colonial architecture, and the rare charm of a neighborhood that feels private, peaceful, and tightly connected.
