236 5th St, Catawissa, PA, 17820
About This Home
Distinctive craftsmanship sets 236 Fifth Street apart. Offering over 4,500 square feet of finished living space, this one-of-a-kind home showcases beautifully handcrafted built-ins, custom shelving, thoughtfully designed storage, and quality woodwork that reflects a level of care rarely seen today. The spacious layout includes numerous rooms and flexible living areas that can adapt to a variety of lifestyles, with details throughout that simply can't be recreated in today's construction. While the home is ready to be lived in and enjoyed, a few cosmetic updates--including fresh flooring, paint, and your own personal touches--will allow the next owner to unlock its full potential. The quality craftsmanship and exceptional construction provide an outstanding foundation, making it easy to envision how this home will truly shine. Outside, you'll appreciate the private setting just outside the heart of Catawissa. A fenced area offers the perfect place for children or pets to play, while the backyard provides a peaceful retreat with more privacy than many in-town properties. Enjoy being just minutes from schools, shopping, and everyday amenities without feeling surrounded by neighboring homes. Some homes are difficult to appreciate through photos alone, and this is one of them. The abundance of living space, thoughtful layout, and remarkable craftsmanship are best experienced in person. If you've been searching for a home with character, quality, and room to make it your own, schedule your private showing today. Call Mike Capita (570-764-1200) or Samantha Capita (570-764-7355) for more information.
