Welcome to 405 Owls Nest Road — a private retreat tucked into one of the most picturesque stretches of Centerville, Delaware. Perfectly situated in the heart of Chateau Country, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home blends elegant design with everyday comfort across 4,009 square feet of living space. Set on a beautifully landscaped 2-acre lot, this home delivers the space, tranquility, and luxury you’ve been waiting for. The moment you step inside, you’re welcomed by an inviting floor plan that flows effortlessly from room to room. The chef’s kitchen is a true showstopper, thoughtfully designed with top-of-the-line appliances, a sprawling oversized island, and custom cabinetry that marries form and function. Whether you're hosting a lively get-together or enjoying a quiet evening at home, this kitchen shines as the heart of it all. The first-floor primary suite is a rare gem — spacious, stylish, and smartly designed for both rest and rejuvenation. It features custom walk-in closets, a dedicated dressing room with vanity, and a spa-like ensuite bath complete with an oversized walk-in shower and a unique jetted claw foot tub, plus direct walkout access to the pool that feels straight out of a luxury resort. Upstairs, you’ll find three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms, all generously sized and filled with natural light. A partially finished basement adds even more flexibility — perfect for a home gym, media room, or creative studio. Step outside and discover your own personal escape: a resort-style inground pool surrounded by high-end hardscaping, lush gardens, and open green space perfect for enjoying the outdoors. Whether you're unwinding poolside or dining al fresco, this backyard is designed for memorable moments. Additional highlights include a whole-house generator for peace of mind, and mature landscaping that enhances the home’s private, estate-like feel. Located just minutes from Centreville’s and Greenville’s charming restaurants, boutique shops, and scenic country roads, this home offers a rare mix of peaceful living with close proximity to everything you need.
