About This Home
As of September 2022This large Shillington split-level is located in the desirable West Hills section of the borough and is located on a private, quite cul-de-sac. You will be surprised by its size as you begin your tour. The focal point of the living room is a brick, raised-hearth fireplace just waiting for this cooler weather to welcome you into the warmth of this room whose carpet hides real hardwood flooring and whose large front bay window lets in abundant light. The formal, eat-in dining room has a mirrored wall which adds depth and charm to the room, and a sliding glass door leads to the rear yard letting in all the natural sunlight. The eat-in kitchen has a double sink, convection microwave, cook-top stove, and all the appliances remain. From the kitchen you take a short staircase to a lower level that remains at grade and has a paneled, carpeted office, powder room, and laundry room. One more stairway takes you down to the finished rec room which will surprise you with a gorgeous brick fireplace and a whirlpool tub to ease you into its relaxing atmosphere. The rear of this property has a dry-laid patio, a BBQ grill and a koi pond making the rear of this property an oasis for family and friends to enjoy. The owners thought of everything by adding an additional, oversized garage, a generator to protect you from those power outages that always hit at the worst possible times, replaced the roof in 2015 and maintained the home well. This gem will check all your boxes!!
