About This Home
As of February 2021Visit this home virtually: http://www.vht.com/434133142/IDXS - Welcome to Gordon Heights- a beautiful community of tree-lined streets and unique homes, a refreshing short walk from quaint and cute Bellefonte, convenient to Routes 202, I95 and I495. 222 Chestnut not only encompasses the charm of years past but also offers great modern updates! Such attractive curb appeal with the crisp, classic color scheme of white siding, black shutters and a red door. The interior is also impressive. Expansive eat in kitchen offers plenty of maple cabinetry, corian countertops, massive center island with plenty of seating, double sink; even window seating and an additional sink! The living room is the perfect comfortable gathering space with bay window and a gas fireplace (originally wood burning). The family room offers great flex space- watch the game, enjoy your favorite beverage, take in the sunshine and overlook the park-like yard. The dining room offers casual elegance as the backdrop for special meals with loved ones. Two first floor bedrooms....or one office and one toy room....or workout room...the possibilities are endless. First floor full bathroom with awesome retro appeal! Upstairs you'll find two huge bedrooms- both with double closets and new carpeting. Updated full bathroom with on-trend gray vanity with granite top, linen closet, fantastic new bath/shower surround. Hard to recreate elements to appreciate- wide baseboards, recessed and overhead lighting, hardwood flooring. Two patio areas, perfect for cornhole on the side of the house and hearing the birds chirp out back. Useful shed and one car garage, crawl space with easy access through exterior entry.
