Description

This spacious 1920's Craftsman-style home is accentuated with a sprawling front porch and beautiful landscaping leading up to it. The home has been updated by the owners while still maintaining some of the original architectural details. The interior is surprisingly spacious. There are hardwood floors throughout the majority of the home. The wood stove in the living room burns hot enough to heat the entire home in the winter! There is an extra room to the left of the living room which is perfect...This spacious 1920's Craftsman-style home is accentuated with a sprawling front porch and beautiful landscaping leading up to it. The home has been updated by the owners while still maintaining some of the original architectural details. The interior is surprisingly spacious. There are hardwood floors throughout the majority of the home. The wood stove in the living room burns hot enough to heat the entire home in the winter! There is an extra room to the left of the living room which is perfect for a playroom or an office. The laundry is on the main floor for your convenience, in the bright sunroom to the left. There is also another full bath on the main level, off of the living room. The upstairs consists of 3 nicely-sized bedrooms and a full bath with a step-up Jacuuzi tub. (Don't miss the walk-in closet in the Master Bedroom!) The kitchen is bright with natural light and has an eat-in dining room area that overlooks the fenced in backyard. The play set and shed in the backyard are staying for the new owners. Attached to the home is an oversized 29' x 18'garage with a workshop and loft area (which is sure to please any man)! The current owners use it for storage, but with a minor configuration to the fence and driveway this could be accessed again in the rear. Perhaps the best part of this home is that it is located in a country setting but convenient to major roadways 422, 724, and 176. It is also in close proximity to the Schuylkill River trail and Exeter Scenic River trail systems. The home is located in the highly-rated Twin Valley School District. There are replacement windows throughout and a whole house UV filtration system. A lot of house for the money! This home is also in a area eligible for USDA 100% Financing!
