Here is your opportunity to reside in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Horsham Township with this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath colonial located in Chestnut Creek. Situated on just under 3/4 of an acre, this home is kept in meticulous condition. You'll first notice the professionally landscaped front yard and enter to a two story foyer with hardwood flooring. An office is off to the right and living room with crown molding to your left. The formal dining room has a chair rail and crown molding. Hardwood from the foyer continues in the kitchen which features 42" cabinets, granite countertops, recessed lighting and stainless steel appliances. A glass slider off of the kitchen leads to a large trex deck, with gazebo, that is the width of the home and perfect for sipping that morning cup of coffee. The massive backyard seems to go on forever and is awaiting your entertainment ideas. Back inside and off of the kitchen is the family room with a vaulted ceiling, recessed lighting and gas fireplace. The laundry room is off of the family room with the entrance/exit to your two car garage that has extra room for storage. A second stairwell in the family room takes you upstairs where you'll find double doors that lead to the master bedroom, a sitting room and master bath. Three additional bedrooms that are good size, with ample closet space, and two full bathrooms complete the upstairs. The unfinished basement provides the opportunity for you to increase your living space and a bathroom has already been roughed out. Schedule your showing today!
