About This Home

As of December 2019

This turn-key home is arguably the finest and largest split-level in the beautiful and centrally located neighborhood of Lincoln Park with easy access to major roadways, greenways/Wyomissing Trailway system, park, and community pool. Located on a corner lot, this home has been renovated and updated from top to bottom. As you walk into the main level you are greeted by a large and inviting foyer with flagstone flooring and a large closet. As you turn the corner you walk into the newly renovated and cozy family room. This room is flooded with natural light during the days and has new drywall/insulation, crown molding, neutral carpet, recessed lighting, and built-in shelves on both sides of the BEAUTIFUL ledger stone fireplace with a gas insert which makes this fireplace both functional and economical. There is also a renovated powder room and the laundry room off the foyer, and the 1 car attached garage has ingress/egress onto this floor. As you walk up the half flight of stairs onto the second level you will enter a large living/dining room/ kitchen open concept area flooded with natural light from the large windows, vaulted ceilings and hardwood flooring throughout. The kitchen was remodeled and designed with custom cabinetry, an abundance of granite countertops, a large island, and a built-in desk area. All kitchen appliances and island stools stay with the house! The door from the dining area leads you out to the large patio and gently sloping back yard which has been hardscaped to include mature perineal plantings, a retaining wall, landscape/exterior lighting, a large shed, a privacy fence, and mature trees to provide privacy. As you walk up the next half flight of steps you will see that there are three large bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The hallway bathroom/main bathroom has a custom tile in the tub/shower and a beautiful vanity. At the end of this hallway, there is a master bedroom retreat including a walk-in closet, a dressing room, and a GORGEOUS private ensuite. This master bathroom has a custom tiled walk-in shower with frameless glass doors. To round out the home, the fully finished basement recreation area has custom finishes including a bar, pool table (negotiable) with custom light fixture, newly painted walls, and closets tucked into all nooks and crannies throughout the basement for extra storage. All the mechanics in the house are fairly new and very well maintained. Currently, there is an electric water heater, but there is a natural gas hook up available. The electric Central A/C system (TraneXB16 model), and the natural gas heating system (TraneXB90 model) with a whole-house humidifier were installed in 2014. There is also a new outside Siemens electric panel with interlock switch for outside generator receptacle & whole house surge suppression, all done by a certified electrician in 2017. (Note: A backup house generator is not included. Just the hook-up is available). There are replacement windows and new window treatments throughout the home. You will see the pride in ownership as you walk through this home and you will realize that there is nothing left to do but to pack your things and move in.
