Beautiful hardwood floors extend through the living room and dining room. The living room has two large picture windows, an open beam and wood plank ceiling, and an inviting stone fireplace with a wood stove insert.

A powder room completes the main level. The upper level has three nicely sized bedrooms with dormers and built-in drawers and shelving. There is also a large open alcove on the 2nd floor which is perfect for reading or studying. A large walk in closet and a full bath with a bathtub, two sinks and built-in storage shelves complete the upper level. The full walkout basement, attached 1-car garage, and oversized shed offer plentiful storage and utility. Wonderful picture windows in the kitchen and master bedroom provide breathtaking views of the classic Bucks County landscape.

Home is solid and has replacement windows but needs cosmetic updating.
