Live your best life at 55 Rugby Rd, located in Exeter Township within the award-winning Exeter school district. This is a delightful mix of 3.15 acres of both mowed and treed grounds, ideal for gardening, bird and deer spotting in a tranquil, yet conveniently-located suburban location. Situated off of Shelbourne Rd. , and close to the Reading CC, this is an expanded ranch, on a private flag lot, close to all that Exeter Township has to offer. Enter the hardwood-floored foyer and then the living room to your right, featuring a gas fireplace for those cool autumn nights. Located on the far wall, the fireplace is flanked by beautiful custom built-ins. The living room opens to a spacious dining area and kitchen; a large gathering space for family and friends and ideal for entertaining. The kitchen features custom solid cherry cabinetry as beautiful as the day where installed. To the rear of the home is the family room, with elevated cathedral ceiling and focal point of which is the abundance of windows for back yard viewing. Certainly, one of the things the current owners have loved about this space was to simply relax and watch nature go by along with all its daily animal visitors. French doors lead to a small brick patio at the rear of the home, a perfect place for grilling. The laundry room completes this side of the home, with access to the rear patio, the over-sized two-car garage and to the half-bath. Both the laundry room and half bath features loads of storage space. On the other side of the home are the three bedrooms with three full baths. Originally the nicely-sized front bedroom served as the master suite with it s accompanying full bath with shower; small but utilitarian. Again, loads of closet space here. An additional bedroom was added in 1998 at the rear of the home. This bedroom as well has a full bath attached; again, with a shower. The third full bath serves the third bedroom, currently used as an office. Each bedroom offers nice sized closets. You will love this home! A paradise for nature lovers, yet conveniently located all major highways, shopping and dining. Call today for your private showing!
