The bathrooms have upgraded fixtures and both the kitchen and main bath have ceramic tile flooring. There is also ceramic tile flooring at the entryway of the front door and berber carpet in the living room. The kitchen is updated with a contemporary sink, new range, range hood, dishwasher and disposal. No detail has been spared, all the windows are double hung replacement windows and the house also has an updated electrical system. The roof was newly replaced in 2002. Use the finished basement for a 4th bedroom suite or a lower level family room. The smallest bedroom was converted into a large walk-in closet with shelving which can either remain as a closet or be converted back to a bedroom before settlement. Why pay an association fee when you can have all the conveniences of a new townhouse with the charm of this lovely Shillington neighborhood! Move right in!
