Description

Hobby enthusiasts, take note! Clad with insulated vinyl siding & a 50-year roof w/transferable warranty (2014), this updated ranch, sited on nearly a half-acre and contiguous with woods, beckons you to be its new owner. Upon entering, notice gleaming hardwood floors, fresh paint, newer carpeting &/or tile adorn every room in this remarkable, move-in ready ranch home. A pellet stove (2019) on a raised brick hearth warms an oversized Family Room. The tastefully updated Bathroom (2019) offers a stall shower and a clawfoot tub, and the expansive rear deck has a new Trex wood-composite surface (2023). The 22x32 Outbuilding (2011) offers significant additional space for the hobbyist, boasting electric service and an enclosed room, perfect for a small wood shop. A nearby shed is perfect for garden tool & lawnmower storage. While currently heated by oil, a natural gas line was recently run to the house. It's time to make the decision to simplify your world! Visitors should be advised there is a Ring audio-visual system present at both entrance doors to the home.

    "Easy access to 95 and route 1. Nearby stores within a 5 mile radius in both directions. Appo School district is preferred for most. Our Neighborhood is tucked back away from any main roads. Traffic is non existent and neighborhood is quiet. Traveling to local restaurants and entertainment is easy and within ten minutes. Commute to PHILADELPHIA and airport is approximately one hour. Traveling during summer travel and holiday weekends is painful on 95 and surrounding roads with influx and outflux of people traveling. "
