Milltown Village

Milltown Village was built by Benchmark Builders from about 2008 to 2017. Every home is now a resale.
Home types: single-family homes and attached carriage homes, in six floor plans.
Size: the floor plans run from just under 2,000 to about 2,770 square feet, and recent listings show up to about 2,900 square feet with a finished lower level.
Layout: two or three bedrooms, some with a den, and two to three and a half baths. The listings we have seen put the primary bedroom on the main floor.
Garage and basement: every home has an attached two-car garage, and many have a full basement, some with a walk-out.
Recent prices: 2025 listings ran from about $620,000 to about $750,000.
The exact size and layout of any home is on its listing, and we will pull it for you.

The amenities center on the clubhouse and the open space around the homes.
Clubhouse: a catering kitchen, game rooms, a billiards room and a card room.
Fitness: an exercise room in the clubhouse.
Outdoors: an outdoor patio and deck, and walking and biking trails through the open space.
Golf: there is no golf course in the community.

Milltown Village is set up so the association handles most of the outdoor work, on single-family homes as well as the attached homes.
The yard: lawn care on the front, side and rear yards is covered by the association fee.
Winter: snow removal is covered.
Trash: trash removal is covered.
What stays with you: the house itself, inside and out, is the owner's to maintain. Ask for the HOA documents to see where the line falls on roofs and exteriors.
We will get the resale certificate before you commit, so you see exactly what the fee covers.

Milltown Village has a Wilmington mailing address but sits in unincorporated New Castle County, in the Pike Creek area.
Health care: ChristianaCare's Christiana Hospital is about 15 minutes away.
Everyday errands: Acme at Pike Creek Shopping Center on Limestone Road is a few minutes away.
Outdoors: White Clay Creek State Park, Carousel Park and Middle Run Valley Natural Area are all a short drive.
Getting around: Limestone Road (Route 7) and Kirkwood Highway (Route 2) connect to Newark, Wilmington and I-95.
Schools: Red Clay Consolidated School District. Confirm school assignments with the district for any specific address.

Milltown Village has one homeowners association.
What the fee covers: lawn care, snow removal, trash removal, common area maintenance and the clubhouse.
Recent figures: 2025 listings show the fee at $254 a month.
At settlement: check the resale certificate for any one-time transfer or capital fee.
Fees change. We will get the current figure for any home you are considering.

Read this first: Active Adults Realty is not a tax, legal or financial advisor and nothing below is advice. Confirm every figure with your own tax professional and with New Castle County before you rely on it.
The state picture: Delaware has no state sales tax, no estate tax and no inheritance tax, and Social Security is not taxed.
The local picture: Milltown Village is in unincorporated New Castle County, outside the City of Wilmington, so the property tax bill is county and school tax with no city tax on top. New Castle County reassessed every property recently, so older tax figures on a listing may not reflect what you will pay.
