About This Home

As of May 2022

Welcome home to this Doylestown Township gem nestled on a quiet street just outside of the borough. The home features four bedrooms, two remodeled bathrooms and a powder room, an updated kitchen, a three-car detached garage and an in-ground pool. Stepping into the spacious foyer you will find a sunken living room to the left with hardwood floors and a wood burning fireplace. To your right a hallway leads to the kitchen with granite counter tops, 42" wooden cabinets, a center island and stainless-steel appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is the formal dining room, also with hardwood floors and a picturesque floor to ceiling bay window. The kitchen also features an eating area and a sitting room with a stone fireplace and a sliding door to the outdoors. The fenced in yard is a private oasis with a multi-tiered deck where you can enjoy your morning coffee or walk down to your heated in-ground pool and take an energizing swim in the summer. A separate laundry/mud room and a large second living room with a fireplace and a vaulted ceiling complete the first floor. On the second floor you will find a beautiful, updated hall bath, four generous size bedrooms (all with hardwood floors) including the main bedroom with a stunning, remodeled bathroom, walk-in closet and access to the balcony. Located in a very private setting in the Central Bucks School District and still close to shopping, restaurants, parks and major roads. Make your appointment today as this home will not last!
