Don't miss this opportunity to own one of Harleysville's original farmhouses, surrounded by mature trees, attractive landscaping, and located directly next to a fishing pond! Current owners of 20 years are empty-nesters who raised their kids in the renowned Souderton Area school district, and are ready to pass this magnificent property on to new caretakers. Built circa 1835, this was originally two homes (side by side) but is now combined into one big home, on a single deed. Situated prominently on a 0.76-acre corner lot, tranquility awaits as you watch the sunset over the pond each evening, from the comfort of your covered back porch. The home exudes historic character and charm that you will never find in a cookie-cutter house. Deep windowsills, random-width plank flooring, and hand-pegged doors have all been lovingly preserved. But it certainly does not lack in modern conveniences! The long list of upgrades includes a central air system, brand new roof and gutters, numerous built-ins, crown molding, modernly appointed kitchen and baths, a waterproofed basement with lifetime guarantee, extensive insulation, updated wiring and plumbing, and the option to easily upgrade to natural gas and/or a heat pump if desired. Separate from the house itself is a huge 2-level detached garage, with 3 bays on the upper level and 600 sqft of additional storage on the lower level, accessible from the rear. For the kiddos, there is a triple-level cedar treehouse that you must see to believe, complete with tree swing and rope basket! This treehouse is so amazing that it was featured in Family Handyman magazine. Majestic 100-year old Norway Maples surround the home to help keep it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Just across the street you can enjoy Lower Salford's extensive walking trails, which lead to local parks, ponds, and some of the area's most popular restaurants. Low taxes, no HOA, and plenty of space between you and the neighbors. Come see how very special this home is -- make your appointment today before it's gone!
