About This Home

As of November 2025

Welcome to 79 Hillside Avenue, a meticulously maintained 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath twin located in the heart of Doylestown Borough. Built in 1901 and thoughtfully updated, this home blends historic character with modern amenities, offering nearly 1,750 sq ft of living space across three finished levels. The main level features a traditional living and dining room layout that flows into a bright, expanded kitchen and family room addition. Skylights, vaulted ceilings, and a gas insert fireplace create a warm, inviting atmosphere, while Atrium doors open to a fenced backyard with patio and shed. The kitchen boasts modern cabinetry, honed granite countertops, and plenty of storage. Upstairs, three well-sized bedrooms share a full bath on the second level. The entire third floor is dedicated to the primary suite, complete with vaulted ceilings, skylights, a walk-in closet, and en-suite bath—providing a private retreat. Major system updates include conversion from oil to natural gas heating, replacement windows, central A/C, 200-amp electrical service, an updated water heater, and a newer roof (2012). The full basement provides laundry and storage space. A rare bonus for Borough living—there are two off-street parking spaces with alley access. Just a 7-minute walk to State and Main, this home places you close to restaurants, shops, schools, and cultural destinations. With its blend of history, updates, and prime location, 79 Hillside Ave offers an unmatched lifestyle opportunity
