Very nicely maintained, brick Cape Cod style home, within Spring Township and the ever popular Wilson School District. Located on a quiet, low traffic street, this home has a nice covered front porch, has a very nice front and rear yard, with a driveway that wraps around to the rear, and a one car, attached garage with a brand new garage door. This home has a bedroom on the main level and two additional bedrooms on the second floor, and also has a very nicely finished lower level with convenient second full bath, and a walkout to the rear yard, and a covered rear patio.
