Handicap accessible, this home offers unique possibilities. A large foyer entrance invites you into a beautifully lit dining room, leading to three generously proportioned bedrooms and a remodeled full bathroom #1. There is also a second full bathroom off foyer. The open kitchen, highlighted by breakfast bar, granite countertops, rich wooden cabinetry with ample storage, and modern appliances opens to the large entertainment room and rear yard. Outdoor living is a joy with a large deck and fenced in level yard. A newer addition features the fourth bedroom with full bath #3, and leads to a versatile space that could serve as a fifth bedroom/ or distinct in-law suite as it has a separate entrance from deck. Additionally, the home boasts a vast, unfinished basement awaiting your vision, updated with a newer water heater and central HVAC system as of 2020. One car garage and off street parking. Conveniently close to shopping, schools, parks, and key highways like Rt. 222, Rt. 422, and Rt. 625, it's ideally positioned for commuting to Lancaster, Allentown, or Philadelphia. This is a one of a kind ranch style, one floor living that you simply must see.
