About This Home

As of December 2024

This 3 bedroom 2 full bath home in Old Shillington is full of character and waiting for the right buyer to bring it back to life. The property features a classic front porch, covered side porch and two wood burning fireplaces that offer warmth and charm.

The detached two-car garage has plenty of space for storage or projects. While the home requires some TLC and is currently without utilities, it presents an exciting opportunity for a buyer with vision.
