About This Home

As of December 2023

Rarely available is a classic two-bedroom, two-bathroom red-brick townhouse in Happy Valley! Approach the home, and you will notice the electrified reproduction boulevard lamp post, cedar-shake roof, old-world brick sidewalks, Federal-style front door, and handsome exterior colors. Upon entering the living room, you will find hardwood floors, exposed beams, halogen track lighting, and tall windows with deep sills only found in homes of this era. The eat-in kitchen features cathedral inlaid white cabinetry with under-mount lighting, a Jenn-Air convection oven, recessed lighting, and a slider that leads to a multi-tier rear deck, perfect for entertaining. The main bedroom on the second floor also has exposed beams with a vaulted ceiling, dual closets with built-in shelving, a ceiling fan, and deep window sills, as well. There is also a large walk-in lighted closet outside the main bedroom, perfect for additional clothing and shoe storage. The lower level features an ample-sized bedroom with its own private full bath, closet, and slider leading to the lower-level deck. The home features a new hot-water heater (2022) and new flooring in the downstairs bedroom and bathroom (2021). The kitchen has an upgraded granite countertop, sink, and back splash (2016) and GE 150-amp electrical service (2013). All double-pane thermal windows were replaced and exterior wood wrapped (2008). Carrier Systems with wireless thermostat and water heater were installed in 2022 and a Carlisle EPDM rubber roof in 2001. Six-panel replacement doors throughout. It is a terrific location within the neighborhood with maximum rear privacy and quiet. Located just steps away from Brandywine Park and the Lovering pickleball courts and within walking distance to restaurants both downtown and in Trolley Square, this is a unique home at a fantastic price!
