Description

It's popular Penn Acres! This solid, split-level 3BR, 1.5 Bath home offers a new buyer so much. We begin with a double driveway, level lot with mature trees and fenced backyard. As you step inside the bright, wide foyer, convenient access to all three levels immediately becomes apparent. The lower-level space to the right could easily be an additional bedroom, office or recreation space. A generous laundry and utility room round out this level. Going up a few stairs is a lovely living room with fireplace and large front-facing window and a separate dining room both featuring original hardwood floors in great condition. To round out this great home is an updated, eat-in kitchen featuring granite counter tops, cabinets and stainless steel appliances. On the top level are three bedrooms all with hardwood floors. A convenient full bathroom in the hallway includes an updated vanity and a high efficiency, dual-flush toilet.
Additional conveniences include interior access to the 1-car garage, a relaxing enclosed porch with exterior access to a fenced backyard with mature trees and shrubbery. Popular schools within a short walk or drive make this an ideal property. This well-maintained home is being sold As-Is.
