About This Home

As of March 2013

This home is simply the best deal in Pennside. The home has been in the family for over 60 years and the current seller has decided to relocate. This is NOT a foreclosure or a short sale. This is a Solid brick (Whitman Split) and is as structurally sound a home that you will find. With over 2,850 sq. ft. of living space, it's large enough for most families to live comfortable with 4 possibly 5 Bedrooms. Seller is not interested in doing any repairs, however, is perfectly fine with any and all inspections. Interior features include Gas Hot Air with Central Air, hardwood flooring throughout, 1.5 Bath and a beautiful brick wood burning fireplace. Exterior offers a fenced back yard with a covered patio to enjoy those great summer BBQ'S. A 15x30 ft. Storage shed that needs a little TLC, but already has electric would make a very nice size workshop. Completing this home is a 1-car garage & off street parking! The property is eligible for Tax reassessment SOLD at the current list price, call agent for details.
