About This Home

As of August 2015

This home will surprise you! This charming single home in Shillington has so much more to offer than meets the eye. It starts with hardwood floors, a fireplace and a gorgeous, large kitchen. Plenty of room to gather and plenty of space for the cook. There is an addition to the home which could serve a number of purposes. This room could be a dining room, family room, sitting room or office. Very nice! Another surprise is the main level bedroom. The garage was converted and again this room could serve any purpose to fit your needs. Ample bedroom sizes and storage on the second floor. Huge paver patio which is very private. All of this on a gorgeous corner lot. Close to everything! Watch community days fireworks from your backyard! One Year AHS Warranty with acceptable offer.
