About This Home
As of November 2020Prepare to be wowed!!! This immaculately cared for cape in Governor Mifflin Schools is the cream of the crop! Manicured beds with numerous plantings welcome you as you walk up to the front door. Before entering the home take moment to check out the wrap around covered porch which offers a place to sit and relax while admiring the beautiful landscaping. Once inside you will love the spacious main living area with oak hardwood floors. To the left you enter the custom Maple kitchen which features granite counter tops and tile flooring. The cook in the house will appreciate the ample counter space, double wall oven, and commercial grade 5 burner gas cooktop. A full bath is on the main level as well which has been updated and has beautiful tile work and a custom vanity with tile shower. From the dining area you can go thru the French doors to the remarkable three season room. Enjoy time in this great space most of the year or consider adding heat (220 electric available) to use year round. On the second floor there is a spacious master bedroom with 2 large custom built his/hers closets. For those needing more room the basement is clean and dry and could easily be finished to add more living area. Updated electric, gas mechanicals, and a newer 30-year architectural shingle roof will give the next owner years of low maintenance living. Last but not certainly least if the amazing multi- tiered garden. This is like nothing you have ever seen! Imagine being set up to grow healthy, nutritious foods right in your own back yard! Various types of peppers, tomatoes, beans, lettuce/cabbage. and the list goes on. An amazing feature that’s been painstakingly cultivated over many years. This is truly a one of a kind home that must be seen to appreciate. Set up a showing today!
