About This Home

As of September 2020

Welcome to Maplewood, the charming, leafy Doylestown Borough neighborhood originally developed to provide housing for veterans returning from WWII. Every street honors a fallen veteran and at the end of Kershaw Ave, you will find this sweet ranch home, lovingly maintained by its original owners. There are three bedrooms, a sunny living room with wood-burning fireplace, a large kitchen open to the dining room, and a huge screened-in porch - perfectly suited for quiet days working from home, or for hosting socially distant gatherings spring through fall, no matter the weather. Hardwood flooring throughout the home, including under hallway carpeting. The full hall bathroom was recently redone and the main bedroom features its own private powder room (with potential to expand to a full bath). There is a full, unfinished basement for storage, as well as a garage. The laundry was moved to the main floor for convenience and is now situated off the garage. As added bonuses, the home offers an underground sprinkler system and an 11kW propane generator included with the sale. The home sits in a serene back corner of the neighborhood where you'll find a trailhead into Buckingham Township, allowing you to bicycle or walk all the way out to Bush Park and beyond. Veterans Memorial Park within the neighborhood offers two playgrounds, ballfields, and a picnic pavilion you can reserve for parties and events. If you're a gardener, you can get to know your new neighbors by joining the Maplewood gardening club that maintains the garden at the entry to the neighborhood. All of this only a good walk away from all of the shops and restaurants of Doylestown Borough, and in the award-winning Central Bucks School District!
