About This Home
As of June 2017Perfectly kept twin on a quiet street in walking distance to Albright college and parks. Just up a few steps from the sidewalk you will be greeted by a cozy front porch. Walk in the front door to the bright open family room. Just beyond you will find an eat in kitchen which leads to the back porch and off street parking. Bilco doors to the basement make storage simple and there is plenty of space downstairs for your belongings as well as the laundry facilities and a bonus room that could be finished if you desire. Basement is clean and dry, owners recently had work done. Upstairs the full hall bath has new floors and is in great shape. The home at one time had 3 bedrooms and possibly could again but for now you will enjoy a huge master and closets. An additional bedroom faces the rear of the home making this house complete. New windows, kitchen appliances included, off street parking, front and back porches, alarm system, central air, clean and move in ready!
