About This Home

As of June 2023

When you walk into this home you will notice all the recent improvements while keeping some of the original character. The expanded kitchen with breakfast area has great wood cabinets, newer appliances, tile flooring and a backsplash that replicates pressed tin. This will surely become your favorite room in the house! Also added just off the kitchen are a wonderful half bath and laundry room with tile flooring as well. The dining room and living rooms are both generous in size and feature the original hardwood flooring, high ceilings plus the living room has a wonderful oak banister leading to the second floor. Upstairs you will find two large bedrooms with pergo flooring and lots of closet space which is unusual in a home of this era. There is also a remodeled hall bath with tile flooring. You can expand the living space by finishing off the attic into a third bedroom or it's a great place for storage. Relax outside on the 23x18 two tier deck or sit on your covered front porch. Other upgrades are replacement windows, newer hot water heater, electric service plus all the appliances are included. This home is within walking distance to the heart of Boyertown and schools. Don't miss this opportunity!
