About This Home

As of August 2025

This well-maintained Cape Cod is the perfect place to call home. The eco-friendly property includes energy and water-saving features including LED lighting, a tankless water heater (2013), additional insulation, Energy Star appliances and more. A custom designed full bathroom with walk-in shower, accented by Mexican tile, was completed in 2009. A new (2009) custom built half bath is located on the second floor. The living room and dining area offer an open space design, great for entertaining. The living room has built-in cabinetry with doors to hold a TV, books and collectibles. A new butcher block counter and cabinets along a row of windows, complements the bright kitchen and appliances, providing plenty of counter and storage space. The built-in, custom hand-painted table for two with matching stools is included. The first floor is completed by a master bedroom with a full wall of double closets, a second bedroom, currently an office, and the stunning full bathroom. Upstairs is a large, bright bonus room: that can be transformed into a family room, office or creative space. There is ample eave storage throughout the 2nd floor. A third bedroom with its new half bath finishes off the second floor. The quiet whole house fan is an efficient and cost-effective way to keep cool when the central air conditioning is not in use. The tilt-in replacement windows throughout the home provide extra insulation and are easy to clean. Outdoor living space is abundant including a covered patio overlooking a secluded garden oasis filled with evergreen shrubs, perennial plants and habitat for butterflies and hummingbirds. A newly built deck, off the patio, provides additional outdoor space and access to the new well-constructed shed. The showcase rain garden is not only beautiful but helps to manage stormwater on the property. The following additional upgrades have been made by the current owner over the past 7 years: 200 amp electric service, an efficient tankless gas hot water heater, new shed and deck (2011) with lots of storage, new lever-style door handles, water softener, 5 burner dual fuel gas range w/ 2 electric ovens, dishwasher (2013), additional GFI's, set-back thermostat and foam and blown-in insulation (2012). To top it all off, the home is within walking distance or a short drive to public transportation (SEPTA Regional Rail and Buses), shops, restaurants, theaters, local schools and parks. The driveway and entrance to the house are on Candy
