About This Home

As of April 2019

The spring market has arrived early in Bucks County! I welcome you to 867 Simons Avenue - a desirable cape code nestled along a quiet road off of Bristol Pike in Bensalem. Approach an impressive lot with green space surrounding the home. Egress into a quaint living room space that segways nicely into the adjoining kitchen. Underneath the current carpets are the original hardwood flooring just waiting to be discovered and refinished. The kitchen has newly laid laminate flooring and plenty of counter space to showcase all of your ingredients and skills as a top chef. Continue through the main level and enter into two side-by-side bedrooms with an accompanying full bath room. Laminate and hardwood flooring plus freshly painted walls make these first level rooms feel more comfy and at home. The second floor resembles that of the first in adding two additional bedrooms, including the front facing master with an expansive amount of space for the king & queen of the home. A second full hall bathroom is located on this level. Both bathrooms boasts ceramic vanities, wooden cabinets, and sliding shower doors. The capacity of this property continues with the full lower level basement encompassing the whole length of the home front to back. Outside of the kitchen is a perfectly sized side patio/deck with direct access to the larger than life back yard. Summer afternoons and fall nights could be changed forever while you host your closest friends and family out back. Caddy-cornered to the side of the yard is a 24x24 fully heated and insulated two-car garage ready for the handyman and fixer-upper of the family. Located right past the famous Curran's Irish Inn (known for some of the best wings around), a short drive from the Street Road corridor, and I-95, by living here you can be in Philadelphia or any of the surrounding counties & states within minutes.
