This home has been very well cared for and maintained over the years. Entering the front door is the large formal living room with two closets. To the right is the dining room, big enough to host family dinners and Thanksgiving. Next to the dining room is the kitchen with updated wood cabinets and hardwood flooring. The kitchen appliances have been updated and include a wall oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher, microwave and refrigerator. Through the kitchen and down four steps is a large family room used for many years as a gathering spot to watch movies, sporting events and especially the Philadelphia Eagles. This level also has a half bath, utility/laundry room and access to the crawl space under the main part of the house. The highlight though is the 3-seasons room located on the back of the house and accessed through the utility room. This is a great area to watch TV, the birds that fly by or just to relax and read a book. Upstairs you'll find three well sized bedrooms and a full bath. In the owner's closet there is access to the attic for more storage. Home is located on a quiet street with some homes still owned by the original owners! Community is close to all major roads, shopping, and is a short drive to Old New Castle. Please wear a mask when touring the interior of the property.
