• Remarks Public: Tucked away from the street and sheltered by mature trees, this property is a sweet surprise. Houses with a first-floor bedroom are hard to find. Houses with a first-floor bedroom in move-in, updated condition are impossible – at least until now. Here it is! You have now found what you have been looking for. This single beauty is stunning from the time you pull into the driveway until you check out the two-car garage with in-law suite above. Stroll the grounds that are planted with just the right amount of shrubs and flowers to be appealing and also quite manageable. The front stone porch is welcoming and shows character and a hint of the extremely well-built house that is before you. Stepping into the living room will reveal the open concept, and yet it will feel cozy and inviting. The hardwood floors, natural light through newer windows with honeycomb shades and neutral paint set the stage for the brick, natural gas fireplace with mantel and hearth and the renovated kitchen and breakfast room beyond. The layout flows throughout all the rooms, including the full dining room just off the living room and adjacent to the kitchen for convenience. Custom backsplash, granite counters, recessed lighting and state-of-the-art appliances, including a trash compactor are sure to make you a very happy cook. A side entry door offers another way inside directly from the driveway which can accommodate over 10 cars for ease of parking. In the hallway is an updated bathroom with double basins, heat lamp, a laundry chute, and opposite that is a unique staircase to the second floor tucked away in a nook. Farther down the hall is the primary bedroom with three double closets that can hold all the clothing you have and then some. The primary bathroom was created in 2017 and has an oversized frameless shower tiled to the ceiling, double basins, granite counter, plus recessed lighting. Through the breakfast room’s French door is a wonderful Trex two-tier deck with a natural gas hookup for grilling, plus a pergola, whose roof is covered with a mature trumpet vine and orange flowers that are loved by the hummingbirds. The level backyard, slightly over half an acre, is serene with mature trees, flowering bushes and evergreens, offering privacy. The yard is 75% fenced and 25% being a natural fence of vegetation. A different set of stairs, accessed from the breakfast room, takes you to the second floor that has three bedrooms, with lots of natural light including a skylight. Any of these rooms can be a bedroom, office, craft room, playroom, music room – whatever your needs might be. Three-zone heat (some radiant floors) and 2-zone a/c. The finished lower level is the perfect place to relax with a second fireplace or play a game of pool on the pool table with fringed pockets that conveys with the house. This level has additional storage space with shelving for all your items you need but want tucked out of the way. As if an awesome house and grounds were not enough, this special property gives you an over-sized two-car garage with an in-law suite above it, adding another 600+ sq. ft. to that in the house itself. The in-law suite is perfect for overnight guests or for parents or other relatives, older children who want to be somewhat independent, or adult children returning to the nest for a spell. The location is very convenient for everyday shopping, banking, restaurants or access to the mall or the PA turnpike. If you want to avoid the hassle and expense of updating your next home and feel like all you want to do is to hang up your clothes and start enjoying life, then this property is a surprise of the most pleasant kind for you.
