About This Home
As of March 2020This Stately Hampden Heights maintenance-free brick single home is within walking distance to Albright College and has been well maintained throughout the years. Enter through the charming front door entrance into a separate foyer area which flows nicely into the living room with a wood burning fireplace and hardwood floors under the carpet. In fact, there are hardwood floors through out the entire house, much of it already exposed. The dining room offers 2 built-in corner china cabinets and a large wall mirror. Off the dining room is the eat in kitchen with all appliances remaining. The 2nd floor offers 3 private, nice sized bedrooms with one of them offering outside access. There is a classic and timeless black and white tiled bathroom, a walk-in cedar closet and a drop-down ladder trap door leading to a floored attic which provides for ample storage. The basement is dry, large and clean and recently repainted/sealed walls and offers more storage as well as the laundry area (washer & dryer included in sale!) with a double tub laundry sink. Outside is an attached 1 car garage with a newly resealed roof with rear alley access and a driveway large enough to accommodate up to 3 additional cars. The outside grounds are lovely offering flowering shrubs for all seasons, a side covered porch and extended patio perfect for family bbq's and a nice sized back yard, as well as a great front porch to sit and relax. Did I mention there is economical gas heat/forced air and central air too? This home also offers energy efficient replacement windows and is well built with the interior of the house being very quiet. As if that's not enough, the seller is offering a 1-year home warranty with an acceptable offer. Act quickly - before it's too late!
