Welcome to 12 Vining, a classic West Haven beauty!  This distinguished home sits on one of the larger lots in the West Haven community.  As soon as you drive up to this traditional all brick and siding home with wonderful curb appeal, it is evident that there has been over 50 years of pristine stewardship. Natural light abounds as you enter the foyer with views through to the rear of the home and French doors out to the yard. The center hall is flanked by a cozy front living area with fireplace that lends itself to many spatial options.  As you continue down the hall, the dining room leads to a thoughtful kitchen addition on one side and a family room addition with second fireplace on the other.  The kitchen addition/renovation was designed to enjoy views of the curated back yard with layered landscaping and mature beds.  This light-filled kitchen includes 42” off-white cabinets, Bosch stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and high-gloss ceramic subway tile that naturally reflects the light. Generously sized workspace for the chef who enjoys cooking as well as dual ovens with convection microwave and Bosch gas cooktop.  Counter seating at the peninsula , provides a great spot for morning coffee or guests while entertaining.  For ease of modern-day living, enter from the driveway via the mudroom door. This “hard-working” space of the home triples as not only a mudroom, but laundry and utility room with additional cabinets, a sink and plenty of storage.  The family room addition with a 9 1/2 foot elevated ceiling, includes a second wood-burning fireplace with an oversized slider out to the deck. Exposed brick wall adds character and charm.  During their ownership, the current sellers thoughtfully opened up the floor plan to provide the best views of the yard and its beautiful gardens.  The deck along the rear of the home, offers a seamless connection between the home and the gardens.  A half bath completes the first floor. Second floor includes an ensuite primary bedroom, and two bedrooms sharing a hall bath.  There is an additional bedroom (4th) off the front left bedroom that has been used as an office and sitting room, and could be a yoga studio or designated play room with oversized closets for storage.  The basement has been meticulously maintained with fresh paint and new lighting and provides additional storage.  Enjoy the spectacular yard which has been masterfully designed with gardens and native plants that have layering and scale perfected! The layered landscaping makes the outdoor space feel like a private retreat.  By deliberately arranging plants by height and blending them with functional zones - like a grill area and fire pit – sellers have lovingly created depth, visual interest, and distinct outdoor “rooms.” It is a gardener’s pure delight.  Brand new shed, 8x12 just constructed and painted.   System updates include: Roof (’24); Hot water heater (’25); Furnace (’24).  All of this in a great location with proximity to local Wilmington-area attractions, easy access to Greenville, and Rt 95 make it very desirable in today’s market!
