About This Home
Completely renovated and set on a spacious 0.86-acre lot, this move-in-ready home offers exciting potential upstairs. A private staircase off one of the bedrooms leads to a finished loft that could easily serve as a third bedroom or primary suite retreat, complete with two closets and plenty of room for a king-size bed set. One of the closets has potential to be converted into a second bathroom. The main floor has been thoughtfully updated with brand-new wood-look flooring throughout. The fully renovated kitchen features sleek gray shaker cabinets, gold hardware, a subway tile backsplash, and bright quartz countertops with a stainless undermount sink. The updated bathroom includes a stylish vanity, matte black fixtures, a framed mirror, and wood-look flooring. Outside, the nearly acre lot extends to the corner of the property, offering plenty of space to create whatever outdoor oasis you can imagine. The driveway has new gravel and there is a deck that overlooks the spacious backyard. The property is also conveniently located near major highways, making for an easy commute to Philadelphia or a quick trip to the shore. This home blends modern updates with space and flexibility, a combination that won't last long. Schedule your showing today!
