Description

Small Mid-Century riverside home on a dead-end street located in a quaint cottage neighborhood overlooking the Delaware River and reeds beyond. Wake up drinking a cup of coffee or tea sitting on the porch watching the sun rise as it brings the river alive as well as the occasional ship passing by. If a peaceful location and excellent view are a priority this is well worth the visit. There is a one car garage with room for small shop and plenty of storage in attic. The house has a nicely outfitted...Small Mid-Century riverside home on a dead-end street located in a quaint cottage neighborhood overlooking the Delaware River and reeds beyond. Wake up drinking a cup of coffee or tea sitting on the porch watching the sun rise as it brings the river alive as well as the occasional ship passing by. If a peaceful location and excellent view are a priority this is well worth the visit. There is a one car garage with room for small shop and plenty of storage in attic. The house has a nicely outfitted modern kitchen including garbage disposal, dish washer, stove,washer dryer stack and room for small table. There is a small area for desk or small dining table that leads to the living room. A convenient half bath is also located between the kitchen and living room . The living room looks through a large picture window and the porch out to the river. Upstairs there is a bedroom with window facing the river and east. Also located upstairs is a small loft for desk or workout and a bathroom. This humble home needs some TLC and work to bring it back to it's potential but well worth the effort once done.
