About This Home

As of March 2015

This Charming Cedar Shake Cape is tucked away on a quiet and tranquil 1.3 acre lot, surrounded by mature trees and plantings. The natural stone feature wall with wood fireplace and built-in book shelves brings a rustic spirit to the living room. The center island Kitchen with breakfast bar offers light oak cabinetry that adds country-style charm. Newer stainless Frigidaire 5-burner flat-top range/convection oven and stainless Whirlpool Conquest refrigerator are included. Stunning great room connects to the kitchen for informal living. Tongue and groove wood ceiling and floor to ceiling brick surround/hearth complement the great room, along with the free standing airtight Vermont Castings wood stove. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level and both have access to the full bathroom. As you make your way upstairs, past the oak rails and spindles, you'll enter the spacious master bedroom, including a 6x9 walk-in closet and sitting area that gets morning sun light. The fourth bedroom also includes a walk-in closet with attic storage and both share the hall bathroom. There is a well-situated, mudroom off the 2-car garage with first floor laundry and powder room. In the garage, pull down steps provide safe attic access to valuable storage space. The basement is partially finished with a rec room, hobby room, workshop and additional storage. In the past few years, the electric was upgraded and new panel added, updated plumbing, replaced pipes, toilet and sinks. The water treatment system, well pump and well tank have been replaced and the new boiler is energy efficient. The whole house generator (20KW) fueled by propane was installed in Oct. 2011. New paver walkway, landscaping and new garage doors with openers were also recently added. Beautiful sunroom with hardwood flooring provides the perfect spot to enjoy full open window views of nature. Come and see this well maintained home located close to Lake Towhee and the Marina at Nockamixon State Park! USDA 100% financing available.
