About This Home

#1224, Central Montgomery County: back on the market, but at a lower price: the "Harvey House." Fonda Schools! Once we called it the "Ugliest Home in Montgomery County", but we sure can't say that anymore. Instead of being smothered in weeds, the lawn has been reseeded and the now-remodeled home is, well, sharp - white with black accents. There are .6 acres here, all open, pretty flat, with a tiny stream at the back. 90' of frontage on Rte. 30A. There is an oversized one car garage, in fair condition. You'll find newly installed brick walks and recent crushed stone on the driveway and parking spaces. Room for up to 8 cars. The home has nearly 1300 square feet of living space. Downstairs is an 11x19' living room with refinished oak floors and knotty pinepaneled walls, with a vented fire-view gas stove, which not only heats but gives a warm and friendly ambiance. There are new (real) wood plank floors in 5 rooms. The kitchen and dining room (11x11.5') have an open floor plan and some new cabinets, some older (you won't be able to tell which is which) All cabinets have been freshly painted and have new pulls. Counters are ceramic and are new. Behind it is a dedicated full laundry and a spacious full bath. There is also a 9x11" bedroom on the first floor (no closet). Upstairs is a new half bath and two large bedrooms (both ~12x16'), each with a vast amount of closet space in each. All windows are thermopane ones. Foundation work and many floor joists & supports are recent. Most rooms have new hardwood floors, while the rest have been refinished. The basement stairs are new. The basement is under 3/4 of the home and is wet after rains, with the water directed away so no damage is done. Red pavers guarantee your feet stay dry while down there. There is a good drilled well, one good enough that it's shared by a neighbor. New water system (pump, plumbing, HW heater and pressure tank). The home has just been very well insulated and heats easily. Fresh paint is on every wall and ceiling. Nearly all are sheetrocked, no old crumbly plaster to worry about. There is a new 200 amp electric entrance and most all the wiring has been updated. Heat is gas hot air, 2 new units plus the fire-view, and there are a number of vents and ceiling fans for good air circulation, both summer and winter. The front porch was rebuilt from the floor up and a small back stoop was newly added. The home is newly sided, white with black trim and shutters. This theme carries over to the front and back porches. We've finished more than a year's full-time work on this and are now ready to sell at $133000. Best country home around anywhere near this price. Nothing competes. Taxes are around $1400, that's all. First come, first served; the early bird gets the prize.
