About This Home

As of October 2019

Truly the picture of the American Dream complete with the white picket fence! From the moment you drive up, this house will make you smile. It could be the charming portico or the adorable window boxes, that draw you in, but once inside you will never want to leave. Cute as a button, & totally renovated! Brand new wood floors continue throughout the entire home, many recessed lights have been added as well & once you step into the kitchen, you won t know where to look first. There are gorgeous marble countertops with a beautiful subway tile backsplash, custom white shaker style cabinets (one cabinet hides the new washer & dryer which owners are including as well), new stainless steel appliances (including refrigerator) & a side door that leads to the large fenced yard sprinkled with colorful plantings galore, a storage shed & plenty of room for lawn games when you host your barbeques. The 2 bedrooms have ample closet space & overhead lighting. The nicely decorated full tiled bath offers a tub/shower & linen closet. Some other important highlights: brand new roof (5/19), new efficient ductless Mitsubishi HVAC (2017), new hot water heater (2017), new hardwood floors (2017), home completely rewired (2017), freshly painted, hardwired smoke/carbon monoxide detectors, there are bilco doors to a crawlspace & pull down stairs to attic storage. All this plus, award winning Central Bucks Schools & close to all of the historic attractions, restaurants & shopping Doylestown Boro has to offer!
