Description
Welcome to 79 Madison Drive, a move-in-ready four-bedroom home offering space, flexibility, and a convenient Newark location.

Home is being sold as-is.
With four bedrooms and a legal rental designation, the home offers excellent versatility for a primary residence, a University of Delaware rental, or a buyer looking for a property with future income potential.
