About This Home

As of December 2021

This beautiful 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom "American Foursquare - Prairie Box" home is a testimony to architectural design that made it so popular in its post-Victorian, turn-of-the-century hayday. Lovingly maintained and updated by its owners, this truly spacious home is now available again on the market after nearly 35 years in private ownership. The list of recent updates is too long to detail. The homeowner remodeled the home with the quality furnishings that they would want in their next home. Gorgeous wood floors have been refinished; the kitchen cabinets, countertop, sink, and dishwasher replaced; the rear sunroom addition total renovated and fitted with a full bathroom; the front porch was repainted inside and out; the electric and plumbing professionally updated; and new window A/C units added/replaced. You've never seen a basement so clean and fresh. With over 700 feet of additional space that could be used for storage, utility, or be finished, it is dry, open, and even has bathroom facilities for your convenience. On entering this home, you will be amazed at the large enclosed front porch, and even more stunned by the enormous living room with fireplace, and gleaming wood floors. Open access to the dining room and dual access to the kitchen finish off the main part of the 1st floor, leaving just the newly renovated rear addition with brand new sunroom and bathroom - complete with radiant floor heat. The second floor boasts 3 bedrooms, full bathroom, and more beautiful wood flooring throughout. Continuing to the 3rd floor, you have the 4th bedroom with closets, and additional storage in the knee wall accessed spaces. With dormer windows front and rear, ceiling fan, and even a cedar cubby-closet to keep those long-storage clothes safe, nothing was left out when planning this space. For peace of mind, the roof was also recently replaced, along with the heating system, microwave, and stove.Consideration given to this sturdy brick home didn't come at the expense of the yard either. The owner has redone all the exterior gardening, with mulch and river-stone. The fenced rear yard is huge and comes with a nice storage shed for your yard equipment. The plantings are beautiful and well-accent this gem-of-the-block. When Realtors say "all you need to do is move in" - this is the sort of house they are borrowing the phrase from. Its really ready to go!Located in the quiet Reiffton suburbs of Exeter Township, you also have the convenience of being just minutes from major routes like 422, 176, and 222.
