Terrific opportunity to live in Yardley Run! Are you looking for at least 4 bedrooms and 2 ½ baths? Is a front porch on your list for your next home? Screened Porch? Two home offices? Two-car garage? With just under 3000 sq ft of living space, this 4-5 bedroom Washington floorplan home in Lower Makefield might fit the bill. Enter into the two-story foyer and you find a classic center Colonial with the office to your right and living room to your left. Follow the gleaming wood flooring to the kitchen which has been updated with Thomasville white shaker cabinets and Corian countertops. The stove and dishwasher are newer. The adjacent dining room features an exit to the covered screen porch. The breakfast area looks out onto the backyard and opens to the family room with built-in shelves and cabinets. French doors open to the large rear deck. The back yard is open and level with trees lining the rear, which borders 19 acres of township land. Just off the family room is the laundry room which exits to the garages. The laundry room was changed into a walk-in shower to accommodate the owners aging in place and could be returned to its original state. A powder finishes off this floor. Upstairs you have plenty of space in the main bedroom with two walk-in closets and the main suite with a soaking tub, double sinks and a separate shower. There are three spacious additional bedrooms that share the hall bathroom with new double sink vanity. There is an additional space that is open and could be used as another office, play area, or closed off for a 5th bedroom. Fresh paint and new carpet throughout. The basement is unfinished with plenty of space for all your needs. Pennsbury School District, close to I-95, Rt 1, PA Turnpike.
