About This Home
As of March 2018Spacious four bedroom Colonial in the heart of Bucks County with brick exterior and great curb appeal. Enjoy your lovely rear yard and paver patio surrounded by abundant perennial landscaping. Once inside, you will find a meticulously maintained home filled with natural light, softened with neutral tones, and an open and flowing floor plan with generously sized rooms. Enter into a two-story foyer with hardwood floors and a turned staircase. To the left is a study and to the right are the formal living room & dining room replete with crown molding and chair rail and separated by architectural columns for easy entertaining. The sunny gourmet kitchen with a large island, granite countertops, beautiful porcelain tile floor, updated backsplash and large pantry is adjacent to the breakfast room and from there you can access the paver patio via French doors. Just beyond the breakfast room is the large family room which features a brick fireplace, cathedral ceiling, circle top windows flanking the fireplace and a triple box window overlooking the beautiful yard. Upstairs, enter your exquisite main bedroom through double doors and be impressed with the generous size of both the bedroom and the walk-in closet. Main bathroom has dual sink vanity along with a lavish Jacuzzi tub and a separate stall shower with frameless door. Also on this level are 3 sizable bedrooms with ample closet space and a generous hall bath with double vanity. The finished lower level is not to be missed. There is room for everything?a second family room/TV area with a built in bookcase/storage unit; a large playroom (also with built-ins) which would be perfect for a pool table; a large exercise room with pocket doors to separate it from the other rooms; and still there is plenty of storage! Located within walking distance to Edgewood Elementary, the LMT pool, the library, the new community center, and many other recreational facilities. This is a special house within minutes of commuter routes and easy access to Philadelphia or NYC trains, and in the acclaimed Pennsbury School District. Truly a MUST SEE!
