About This Home

As of December 2021

Fantastic Governor Mifflin Colonial SMD with a very nice center hall design floor plan. One of the cleanest and best kept houses you will ever see! Original owner for nearly 28 years! Built as a 3 BR but the owner removed a wall between the front 2 BRS to make a very large MBR. Those 2 rooms measured 12x11 & 13x11. The wall can easily be reinstalled to make it a 3 BR again or leave as is for a wonderful MBR. Spacious sun splashed living room. Gorgeous modern 25 handle Oak eat-in kitchen with adjacent dining area and access to the very large rear deck. First floor powder room, large basement ready for finishing into a nice rec room. Laundry room in basement with access to the cemented patio. Nice fenced yard with shed. Electric baseboard heat with central air. Cemented driveway parking for 2 cars out-front. Excellent convenient location on a low traffic street dead-end street. The property backs up to Birdland. This special home is a MUST SEE! Priced to sell quickly!!
