Historic 2 bedroom 1 bath local stone farm house on 3.40 acres. The original parts of the house were built in the 1720's and then added to and renovated in the 1930's.

The original parts of the house were built in the 1720's and then added to and renovated in the 1930's. The house needs new owners to add on to it as it approaches the venerable age of three hundred years old in the 2020's. The house is on the Historical Register with New Garden Township and the ground is NOT sub dividable. The house has good bones, but has fallen on hard times recently. The house sits at the point where Newark Rd and Laurel Heights Rd meet and the ground has fairly extensive frontage on both Newark Rd and Laurel Heights Rd. There is lockbox but by entering the house you are doing so AT YOUR OWN RISK as the house currently has MOLD and some BUCKLED FLOORS. FHA, VA and Conventional financing are probably not available for this project. Perhaps a Renovation Loan will work or CASH. The house is to be sold in as-is condition and seller makes no warranties either expressed or implied. Please make an appointment to walk the grounds or to access the lockbox. If you are going inside bring a flashlight.
