About This Home
As of March 2019PRICED TO SELL! Welcome to the exquisite community of Headley Trace, located within the award winning Council Rock School District, and walking distance to historic Newtown Borough. This spacious townhome is offered at an attractive price, with low taxes. One of the largest floor plans in the community, at 2,000 square feet, this 3 Bedroom, 2.5 Bath townhome has been recently painted in fresh neutral colors. The kitchen has just been updated with brand new stainless steel appliances, and is fully open to the den, across an island for gathering and additional space. The step-down living room and adjacent large dining room create a feel of the open-concept floor plan that everyone loves today. Glass sliding patio doors lead to the outside deck, rear yard, grassy common area, and outside storage closet. A main floor half bath and ample storage closets complete the first level. A sweeping turned staircase will lead you upstairs to a large master bedroom suite, big enough to fit a king-size bed, plus two additional spacious bedrooms with ample closet space and windows. The hall bathroom includes an oversized soaking tub surrounded with tile, and a convenient upstairs laundry area. Look for the pull-down stairs leading to a FULL attic for more storage. The detached one-car garage is just steps away, plus additional parking is available in front of the townhome. New HVAC system, and new hot water heater were installed in 2018. The community includes a swimming pool, tennis and basketball courts, clubhouse, trash collection, lawn maintenance, and snow removal of the common areas, all incorporated into the low monthly HOA. Conveniently located within minutes from shopping, dining, and history, plus I-295, U.S. Route 1, or transit to Philadelphia and New York. Hurry, this home will not last!
