About This Home
As of May 2023This adorable Cape Cod - being sold by the original owners - quietly sits on a charming street in Newtown Square. As you walk inside, you’re greeted by a foyer with stone flooring that transitions into hardwoods, flowing effortlessly between each room of this home. The inviting living room is nice and bright with large windows and a brick, wood-burning fireplace where you can cozy up next to the crackle of the fire on a cool night. Next to the living room, the first bedroom would make a great space for guests who are visiting or it would make a nice, spacious office for those who are working from home. For convenience, an adjacent full bathroom with a stall shower accompanies the first floor bedroom. As you continue your tour of the first floor, an eat-in kitchen with crown molding is cheerful and sunny as it lets in the light from your enclosed sunroom through the back door. The sunroom has wood floors and looks out onto your expansive backyard that is partially fenced-in and includes a shed for storage. To complete the first floor, a formal dining room with a chair railing and crown molding creates a space to make memories around the table with family and friends. Take the extra wide stairs up to the second floor where you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms, each with an adorable nook to set up a window seat or book nook for the kids. A full bathroom with a tub/shower and a hall closet wrap up the second floor tour. Last but not least, an unfinished basement awaits on the lower level and with its tall ceilings and walkout stairs to the driveway, this space can easily be finished with your personal touches into a great playroom, movie room or bonus room to entertain. Newtown Square is home to lots of restaurants and shopping and has easy access to major highways. Come visit today to make this house your new home!
