About This Home

As of June 2025

Being the very first house on Linden Ave puts you at the edge to the center of sought after Doylestown Boro, yet it is quiet and strictly residential. This is a most unique opportunity for you and your family. From the outside, 305 Linden Ave appears to be your classic 1950s Cape style home. But this home is so much more! Last purchased in 2003 and lovingly improved to accommodate a multigenerational family, a live in Nurse or Au Pair, this has to be seen to be appreciated. The original home features a sunny front sitting room with built-in cabinetry and a wood burning Fireplace. As you round the corner through the sitting room the home opens up into the ultimate family gathering spot. The open concept kitchen living and dining area will be your family's favorite place, whether you are hanging out on the weekend or hosting a holiday feast. The kitchen has ample Granite counter space and newer kitchen appliances. This spacious living area over looks the totally fenced in backyard with a tranquil water fall and Koi Pond and beautiful personal in-ground pool. Pool has been maintained by Sapphire Aquatics and will be conveyed with a brand new Pool Vac. Stay cool in the AC while you watch the kids play in the pool in the summer or feel the warmth from the skylights and wall of windows that drench the room in light in the winter and you cozy up by the gas fireplace watching the snow fall outside. The built-in entertainment features a DVD player and 6-speaker Bose system surround sound. The second floor of the original house has 3 bedrooms, a hall bathroom with shower and tub, a 2nd floor stackable washer and dryer and built-in cabinetry in every room. The second dwelling is the newer portion of this property and is an all first floor home build in 2003. The front of this home is an office with Gas Fireplace and half bath. This is also an open concept living space with a full Kitchen, 2 Bedrooms, and a large Bathroom with a double sink, Combo Washer Dryer, and oversized walk-in shower. The main bedroom features a double closet and French Doors leading to a private deck. Both homes are accessed by the main front door but are both totally separate and private, but can be more integrated or co-joined for a multifamily living experience with minor structural alterations . This property provides flexibility to accommodate your personal multigenerational needs. There are two, 200 Amp electrical panels powering this property and it will be sold with a Generic Manual Gas Powered Generator with chord to power the essentials when needed. Outside you will find a detached 2 car garage with additional storage and separate side entrance. And if you still need more storage the unfinished basement is not only spacious but functional with a large egress window allowing quite a bit of natural light and an outside entrance. You cannot often find properties like this in Doylestown Boro!
