About This Home

As of September 2023

The convenient Doylestown location is just one of the things to love about this home! A rancher with new carpet and paint, newer kitchen, sunroom, inground pool and 3 car garage on over an acre is ready for enjoyment. 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a large office room compliment the outstanding outdoor living space. The deck, the concrete pool and the privacy will delight while the solarium gives year round enjoyment of the yard. A full basement with outside entrance and pull down attic steps assure adequate storage. A short drive to shopping, hospitals and access to the 611 bypass make this location one of the best around. Also nearby: Delaware Valley University and the Septa train to the city. The owners picked this home for all the right reasons, as you will see. One level living with all the perks!
