About This Home

As of July 2024

Lovely cape cod home located just outside of Boyertown. This home has been well maintained for years by the current owners and is just waiting for you to make it your own!

There are plenty of cabinets and countertops for you as well as ample space for a table, hutch etc. Plus all the appliances remain with the property! Just off the kitchen is the living room with large bay window and access to the 2nd floor. Also on the first floor are a bedroom and office, which could be used as a 4th bedroom as well as a full bath with newer vanity, tile flooring and Luicana insert in the tub/shower. Upstairs you will find 2 additional bedrooms, both with built in drawers and closets as well as access to storage under the eaves. Another large walk in storage area is located off one of the bedrooms. The basement is unfinished with access to the rear garage. The home is situated on a large lot with a stream in the rear of the property, has a large driveway with plenty of parking as well as a nice storage shed. Major improvements made in the last 8 years are replacement heater, roof and upgraded electric panel. Don't delay, schedule your appointment today!
