Description

What an opportunity! Are you looking for a spacious property with tons of versatile space? If so, this is it! This beautiful farmhouse-style home has tons of charm throughout, an oversized garage large enough to throw a party in (it’s been done!) , a large and level lot, tons of driveway parking, and a walk up 3rd floor if more space is desired. The current owner has loved this home for decades and it shows. Pull into the expanded driveway (that is large enough to completely turn around in) and head...What an opportunity! Are you looking for a spacious property with tons of versatile space? If so, this is it! This beautiful farmhouse-style home has tons of charm throughout, an oversized garage large enough to throw a party in (it’s been done!) , a large and level lot, tons of driveway parking, and a walk up 3rd floor if more space is desired. The current owner has loved this home for decades and it shows. Pull into the expanded driveway (that is large enough to completely turn around in) and head on in at the back deck. The first floor has an open concept because the kitchen was opened up to the dining room. The living room is a total charmer with an open staircase and tons of natural light pouring in. The kitchen has plenty of oak cabinets, subway-tiled backsplash, and access to the family room addition with access outside for convenience. There are 3 sunlit filled bedrooms with closets and a huge hall bath! The original hardwood floors on the second floor have been painted but could easily be sanded and refinished, or carpet could be laid down. The walk-up attic offers tons of storage space for now but could be finished if needed to a 4th above-grade bedroom. The basement of the home is partially finished with separate laundry and utilities. Enjoy the landscaping once Spring arrives. Thoughtful gardens to enjoy as you sit on the back deck and enjoy the privacy. This home would be amazing for anyone who needs a workshop, art studio, or just a large garage! This property is one of a kind, located in the wonderful Methacton School District and Worcester Township. Take advantage of its centralized location and make it yours today!
