About This Home

As of May 2017

This solid Brick Cape Cod style home, within the Kenhorst section of the Governor Mifflin School District is a solid home, with 2 bedrooms on the main level, and 2 "studded-out" bedrooms on the second floor, that simply need drywall & flooring, to make this a 4 bedroom home. The roof is only a few years old, and this could be a terrific project for a handy 1st time buyer or an investor. Backs to Alvernia University, this home is priced to sell!
