About This Home
As of December 2019One floor living is possible in this Grande built ranch home. 3 bedrooms on Main level with master bedroom bathroom suite. This home is located in the community of Villages at Rivers Edge and Muhlenberg Township. Also has easy access to Jim Dietrich Park for recreation and entertainment. This home has been loved by the current home owner for only a short time as they are now moving out of the area. While here they added ceiling fans, new paint, landscaping, gutters, downspouts and gutter guards. Interior also has high quality laminate wood flooring along with tile and upgraded carpet. The great room has a gas corner fireplace with mantel and tile trim. The central room also has vaulted ceilings and ceiling fans. Laundry is in hallway off of the great room and next to the kitchen area. Plenty of storage space with the additional cabinets. Stainless steel appliances have been added during their ownership and a main feature is the gas range/oven for easy cooking. Dining area with a view of the roof covered deck and tree lined rear yard. The tree lined yard gives privacy during the summer and the flower beds are a nice addition to enjoy throughout the year. The covered deck is very spacious and is great for entertaining or gaining access to a wash line reel so you can hang out your wash. Or use as a pet line for allowing your pup to have some extra room to run. The lower level of the home has a partially finished basement with two large family, recreation or workout rooms. You decide what is best for your families life style. Loads of closet space. This lower area adds 660 sq ft of living space to your home. This area also has a bilco door to exit to the rear yard. Very few steps for carrying any items inside and storing in the other side of the basement which is a large unfinished area. This unfinished area houses the mechanical systems like the high efficiency gas heater/AC and gas hot water heater. Plenty of room for a work shop or just kept for storage. This home is ready for new owners - just pick your date!!
