About This Home

As of March 2023

*We have received an offer. Seller has requested showings stop at 12 noon on Saturday 2/11 and offers due by 2:00 pm on 2/11. Wake up to stunning sunrises across the farmer’s field as you look out the front door of this well-maintained two-story home in the Conestoga Valley School District. This home features 3 bedrooms with the option for a 1st floor bedroom and 1 ½ baths with a large linen closet and ample closets throughout. The large 10’ x 20’ family room with triple windows, transom window, and sliding glass door gives you plenty of natural light. The first floor also has a library room with a built-in wood bookshelf, an eat-in kitchen, a dining room (that was used as a home office), and a second living room that was used as a 4th bedroom. Multiple rooms in this home are flexible spaces that can easily adapt to suit your needs.
Basement is partially finished and offers a ton of storage space and includes desirable extras like a laundry room with large utility sink and storage cabinets, radon mitigation system, water softener, and hybrid heat pump/oil furnace system for efficient heating and cooling. The attached 1-car garage has an electric door opener with keypad access, built-in storage shelves and pegboard wall, and offers plenty of room for a home gym or workshop. Outside, enjoy a low-maintenance composite deck with roof for use rain or shine, plus a generous yard with beautiful landscaping and mature trees and shrubs of all varieties; cherry, corkscrew willow, wisteria, red maple, forsythia, and lilac that bloom at different times of the year. Gather around the stone fire pit and hang a hammock between the trees to enjoy this relaxing outdoor space. The backyard also includes a shed large enough to store a riding mower, outdoor tools, and games and a wooden playhouse that is now an arbor with extra stow space for lawn chairs. Just minutes from Rt. 222 and the PA Turnpike, making it ideal for commuters traveling to the Harrisburg, Reading, or Philadelphia area. The area also offers many local conveniences, including multiple grocery stores, and restaurants.
All appliances are included in the sale of this home. New oil tank and new chimney liner were installed in 2021. Schedule your showing today before this house is gone!
