For 30 years, this home has been properly maintained and lovingly cared for by the same owners who built it. You'll feel at home right away as you enter the two-story sun-filled foyer with a clearstory window that shares this natural light with the second-floor hallway. Hardwood flooring can be found in the most popular gathering spots on the first floor – the open-concept family room and eat-in kitchen. The kitchen window offers a view of the paver patio and private backyard with mature trees - but your favorite spot will likely be right through the sliding door of the eat-in area… a gorgeous screened-in porch! The porch has a vaulted ceiling with fan, and was built to be spacious enough for entertaining, sharing family meals in the warmer months, or just listening to the birds with your morning coffee. You will feel spoiled with his and hers walk-in closets in the primary bedroom suite, and enjoy an en-suite bath that features a separate tub and shower, and double sink vanity. This spacious home sits in a popular neighborhood with close proximity to grocery stores, the Hanover Township Community Center and pool, restaurants, shopping, and quick access to Rt. 22. Don’t miss out on a wonderful opportunity to make this home your own! Radon mitigated and offered with a CLEAR CO!
