About This Home

As of November 2018

OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED for 9/15! Location, Location, Location! This Absolutely Charming Home Situated On Its Own Cul-De-Sac In Methacton Schools Is Move-In Ready w/New Bathrooms, Updated Kitchen, A Finished Basement, New Gas HVAC & More! Showcased by professional, low-maintenance landscaping, you can pull in to your double driveway and follow the paver walkway to your new home! The interior features fresh paint, new hardware and lighting, and other upgrades. Enter the combination living and dining room which is bright and airy with multiple windows and hardwood floors. Continue to the kitchen which has been recently updated with refreshed cabinets, granite counter tops, under-cabinet lighting and new stainless-steel appliances including a double oven! In the rear of the home, find the main bedroom with double windows and a two-tiered closet as well as the 4th bedroom which is currently being used as an office. The first-floor full bathroom features ceramic tile and a jetted soaking tub. Heading upstairs you'll see this is not your ordinary cape! The 2 bedrooms on this level are both well-sized and the roofline has been bumped for high, squared off ceilings. The new hall bathroom features a soaking tub with ceramic tile floor and surround. A delightful library/sitting area with window seats charms you with views of the well-manicured neighborhood. If you aren't in love already, head down to the large finished basement space. Recently finished in 2016, this oversized recreation room features plush carpeting, recessed lights, multiple locations for cable hookup, hardwired internet drops and plenty of space to spread out! The other half of the basement contains the laundry area, storage, a workshop and the new, high-efficiency 2-stage heat pump with gas (propane) backup installed in 2015. A new storm door in the kitchen leads out to the new covered porch addition with gate and lock that overlooks your private, expansive and fully fenced yard. You'll spend many days sitting and relaxing under the shade, soaking up the gorgeous setting or entertaining on this acre lot. Let's not forget about the attached 1-car garage with both inside and rear access and other upgrades like the alarm system, and a 10x24 shed, to stay. Just 1 mile from route 422, within walking distance to Audubon Village Shopping Center and the Perkiomen Trail, this location just can't be beat! Call to schedule your showing today; this one won't last! Owner is licensed PA Real Estate Agent.
