About This Home
As of October 2020Don't miss this opportunity to own a wonderful Greth built home with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and located in the Whitford Hills area of Muhlenberg Township. Upon entering the foyer, you will notice the French doors leading to the formal living room- an area that provides privacy if needed and could easily be used as a study or office. The well-designed kitchen, with granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances is open to the adjacent family room with brick fireplace. Upstairs there is a spacious master bedroom suite with master bath and an over-sized walk-in closet. Three nice size bedrooms and a hall bath complete the second floor. The recently updated mechanicals and quality 2 x 6 construction make this property easy on the monthly budget! A high efficiency Heil gas heater and A/C unit were added in 2018, a gas hot water heater in 2019, and all new double hung replacement windows and patio doors in 2017. The owners also added a new water softener and reverse osmosis system in 2019. Relaxing and entertaining is easy on your 26' x 16' rear deck which overlooks a well-manicured lawn. Pet owners will surely appreciate the newly added vinyl privacy fence. There is a garden shed for extra storage. Other highlights of this value enhanced home include: new roof in 2014, over-sized lot, 2 car garage, a partially finished basement, and a first floor laundry and powder room. All appliances stay including the high quality Samsung washer and dryer. If you are looking for a well-maintained home that is move-in ready, energy efficient, and located in a great Muhlenberg location, look no further! You just found it!
