About This Home
As of September 2022Welcome to 261 S Thistle Down in the charming McClellan Farms community in highly desirable New Garden Township. Situated at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, the home is nestled among mature landscaping. The paver walkway leads to the front entry, where you step into the large and bright foyer with a spacious closet for everyday use. The adjacent living room is filled with sunlight streaming from the grand decorative window, and the cathedral ceiling adds a warm, airy feel. Immediately flanking the living room is the formal dining space with a centered chandelier, chair rail, and open access to the kitchen. The large kitchen provides an abundance of countertop space and cabinetry, a spacious pantry, and an eat-in dining area. Double sliders lead you to the cedar paneled all-season room featuring recessed lighting, wrap-around windows, and private access to the rear yard from an upper deck. Moving down the hall you find yourself in the master bedroom. This large space is completed with a vaulted ceiling, overhead lighting with ceiling fan, walk-in closet, and private full bathroom. Ascending the partially open staircase to the second story, you come upon two bedrooms along with a full Jack and Jill bathroom. The fully finished basement is ready for your imagination to soar. This space can be utilized as a playroom, home office, gym, or additional living space, with a private section for storage and a workshop. The large, private backyard surrounded by mature evergreens is ready to be your oasis. The walk out basement opens to a tranquil paver patio, perfect for entertaining and hosting summer barbecues while the family and four-legged friends enjoy the backyard. There is also a lawn shed that can fit your mower and all your outdoor games. This home has been well loved and is looking for its next owner to fill it with memories.
