This charming, move-in ready stone ranch is perched on a pretty lot on a cul-de-sac street in Lower Pottsgrove. Enter from the wide covered front porch into a spacious living room with beautifully refinished original hardwood floors and new bay window that is open to the sunny dining area. The brand new kitchen has gorgeous white soft-close cabinetry, new slate appliances, stylish range hood, stainless sink with gooseneck faucet, built-in pantry cupboard, breakfast bar overlooking the dining area, and plenty of recessed lighting. The real hardwood flooring flows down the hallway and into all four bedrooms with ceiling fans. A nicely-sized main bedroom has a deep double closet and updated en-suite bathroom with stall shower, and the remaining bedrooms share an elegantly remodeled full hall bath with pedestal sink. Whether you need additional entertaining space, in-law possibilities, or a separate play area for the kids, the partially finished walk-out level has all new flooring, tons of recessed lighting, and is ready for anything! A large combination laundry/powder room with utility sink, large storage closet, heater room, and 2 car garage complete the lower level. Outside there is a large yard with paver patio, mature trees that provide tranquility and privacy, and an attached storage shed. It's often said that they don't build homes like this 1960s gem anymore, but a home is only as good as the owner that maintains it, and no detail was left unattended here. With new windows, new interior and exterior doors, new garage doors, central air, replacement 2 zone heater, new roof, and new well tank, there is nothing you need to do but pack and move!
