The potential of this property is not readily apparent when you look at photos or drive up. The four bay garage doors are in front of you and they are the back of the house that was built facing the rear of the property for the best view. The entrance to the raised one-level living space is around the right side of the large driveway area. Built on one acre of partially wooded land, there is room for an addition or a spectacular outdoor entertaining space, a vegetable garden, a pool, and sitting areas among the trees and landscaping that enhance the beauty of this tranquil oasis. The floor plan, large room sizes, and the “bones” of the house provide an opportunity to create a beautiful home on a private piece of land on a private road. Step inside to an enclosed 3-season sunroom. Eight windows, a ceiling fan, knotty pine ceiling, and limited air conditioning (but no heat) provide a multi-purpose room that is a wonderful feature. The kitchen has oak cabinets, vinyl plank flooring, a laundry area and a door to the lower level workshop and garage. New carpet has been installed and the entire house has been professionally painted in a neutral color. The dining and living rooms are light and bright with a bay window in the living room and a door in the living room opens to a balcony. One of the two bedrooms has built-in bookshelves. The hall to the other bedroom has a coat closet, linen closet, built-in ironing board, and a full bathroom. The primary bedroom and bathroom suite has a fabulous built-in with drawers and there is a large walk-in closet. No lack of space here. The bathroom has a new shower and vinyl floor. The lower level is a workshop and storage area that leads into the immense, high ceiling and open garage. It offers possibilities for conversion to rooms or for housing a car collection or whatever suits your needs and lifestyle. A large carport to the left side is yet another opportunity. Bring your vision and creative ideas to this house and land in a wonderful location that is close to the shopping, dining, entertainment and recreation amenities of New Hope and to the commuting routes to Princeton, Philadelphia and NYC. A discerning buyer will recognize the potential to create an exceptional home that will provide comfortable daily living and be great for entertaining, inside and outside. You will be welcomed back home each time you return. Well water and public sewer. 1-Year Home Warranty included. Home Warranty included!
