Welcome to 279 Radio Rd, Elizabethtown — a spacious end-unit townhouse offering comfortable living, convenient location, and great features throughout! The first floor offers a bright living room, half bath, and an eat-in kitchen with tile flooring, pantry space, a broom/coat closet, and appliances that remain, including a refrigerator replaced in 2022 and dishwasher replaced in 2024. The second floor features 3 bedrooms and a full bath with a tub/shower combination. The finished lower level adds valuable living space with a family room featuring surround sound, a 90-inch TV home theater setup, and entertainment console — all remaining with the home. A natural gas connection is also in place for a future fireplace, as one was formerly connected. A unique touch of character can be found in the rear section of the family room, which features brick flooring made from bricks from the old Mars Chocolate factory, along with a wood beam accent at the brick hearth area in the front corner of the family room. The rear unfinished utility/laundry room includes the washer and dryer, wash sink, 200-amp electric service, hot water heater replaced on 1/11/2023, and additional storage space. Four window A/C units also convey. Outside, enjoy mature trees, a rear deck, storage shed, and a 4-car paved driveway. There is also a natural gas hookup running to the house, offering the convenience of connecting your gas grill. Conveniently located just minutes from Route 283, TJ Rockwell’s Grill & Tavern with outdoor seating, and a nearby school within walking distance. Some carpeting is in need of replacement, and some walls could benefit from fresh paint, which is reflected in the home being sold in its present condition. This end-unit townhouse offers space, convenience, character, and charm — with a great opportunity for the next owner to add their own finishing touches! Hurry, this opportunity will not last long in Elizabethtown.

High-Density Residential District
The R-3 High-Density Residential District is comprised of the highest permitted density of residential uses. A mix of housing types is encouraged. This district is located in proximity to the infrastructure to support higher-density development, such as transportation infrastructure, public water and sewer utilities, and commercial districts. Certain nonresidential uses are allowed by right, or by special exception, to provide for convenient access to the higher concentration of residents. This district generally coincides with public utility service areas. As a result, permitted densities and housing types require the use of these public utilities.
