Step into 3438 Primrose, an extremely well cared for 3 BD/1.5 twin that offers flowing living/dining space, a finished basement, pristine hardwood floors, and a rear yard with a deck (and GRASS)! We're certain it doesn't get much better than that. Pull into your front driveway and walk up your landscaped lawn. Enter through the front door and hang your coat in the convenient coat closet. The first floor offers a sizable living room that flows into a full dining room, which is perfect for entertaining during the holidays or working from home during a pandemic! The eat-in kitchen offers a gas range, a vintage oven, and a copious amount of counter and storage space, all accented by beautiful, original cabinetry; the two large windows flood the room with natural light so you can grow fresh herbs! A renovated half bath completes the first floor. Ready to unwind? Head outside to your covered porch for some fresh air or head downstairs to the finished basement and pop on a movie. The basement is home to brand new laminate flooring, dedicated laundry with a utility sink, additional storage, and access to the driveway and/or the one-car garage. When you're ready to call it a day, head upstairs to the second floor and choose one of three bedrooms, each with sizable closet space. There is a full bathroom with a shower-tub combo and a skylight; linen closet for all of your organization needs. Located nearby Dagwood's Pub, Three Monkeys Cafe, Starbucks, Chipotle, Wawa, Giant, Aldi, and more! Quick access to I-95 and regional rail.
