About This Home
As of August 2018New to the market!!! This cute and cozy Mercerville cape is every first-time homebuyers dream. With tons of great spaces, a fenced backyard, and extra recreation area in the basement this home has a lot to offer. As an added bonus... the tile and new fixtures have been chosen, and their contractor is all set to begin the demo and installation of a brand new main bath on the first floor. The main level of this home offers natural hardwood flooring and the eat-in-kitchen features a bright and expansive breakfast room. By-the-numbers, this home is fantastic, and inexpensive alternative to condo living.
