There is a spacious living room that leads into the eat-in 34 handle kitchen. The full bath and 2 bedrooms are on the next level. You will find a bedroom upstairs with the added value of an attached finished room that can serve as storage, a game room, an office or another bedroom. A bathroom with a shower stall is located off of the garage, which is perfect for coming in from a day outside working or playing. The large basement has so much potential. That is where you will find plenty of room and the gas furnace with meticulous records from the previous owner.

Enjoy local ballparks, parks and the Shillington swimming pool that are a short distance away. Seller willing to consider Seller Assist.
