About This Home

As of July 2020

A short drive down a Cul-DeSac Street sits 36 Houk Road situated a stones throw from Doylestown Borough. This 5-bedroom home is practically new both inside and out. Including but not limited to a renovated interior with new kitchen, 2.1 baths, new tiled flooring and bamboo engineered flooring, and more. Since day one the owners continued to improve this home adding even more style and function. For example adding to the Sun Room with vaulted ceilings an insulated glass garage door. The 2 car garage has been insulated, dry walled and has heat and air conditioning and currently being used as the in home gym. The home recently had a new roof installed, new 6 bead board siding, and a new driveway. The fully fenced rear yard provides safety for all sizes. There is a newer HVAC with 3 zoned heating and two zoned AC, and the huge perk is the whole house generator. The heart of the home starts in the spacious kitchen with granite counters, tiled backsplash and white quartz center island and overlooks the family room with tiled flooring, a vaulted ceiling with shelving and accent lighting. Off of the family room is the sun room surrounded by windows and complimented with two skylights. The first floor lends itself well for gatherings with family and friends allowing them to spread out with a great floor plan including the dining room and living room. Completing the first floor is the office which could be used as a fifth bedroom and the laundry room with full sink and cabinetry. Upstairs each of the bedrooms are well sized with ceiling fans and good closet space. Both second floor bathrooms have been redone with tiled floors and showers including the master bath with soaking tub. Retreat outdoors to relax by the fire pit or tend to the animals. You choose the best use as there is a shed in the rear yard that has been converted to a small home for the chickens or could be used as a nice garden shed, or maybe a combination of both. Regardless of what your flavor is this home lends itself well to whatever your needs are. Please note the layout could be a 5 bedroom however the septic system is designed for a 4 bedroom home.
