Sometimes an extraordinary home comes on the market that you just can't resist. Welcome to 15 Effingham Road in the coveted Westover neighborhood. Maybe it is the unique character and charm of a home built in a bygone era with exceptional craftsmanship and millwork, maybe it is the sellers' attention to detail in every update and upgrade, maybe it is the stunning natural light throughout that welcomes you, maybe it is a calling to live in a neighborhood within quick walking distance of the Delaware Canal towpath, maybe its the low taxes or maybe it is everything put together. Know that this is the one you have been waiting for! Just move right in and live the easy life for years to come - the current sellers have updated all systems, removed knob and tube wiring, and made this home truly turn key. Situated on a lovely double corner lot, this home oozes curb appeal from every angle with manicured lawns and landscaping, slate roof, recently painted exterior siding, newer PA bluestone walkways, newer expanded wrap around driveway and private backyard with patio. Enter the foyer and appreciate the newer custom millwork, gleaming hardwood floors, fresh neutral color palette, first floor plantation shutters and hardwood main staircase. To the left, the formal living room with custom built-in lighted bookcases beckons you to sit and visit for awhile. Centered around a striking oversized brick fireplace open on both sides to a sundrenched redesigned sunroom/office/den with new windows and rich slate flooring, this up-to-date open concept blends beautifully with the original early-century style. The kitchen has been remodeled with exquisite taste - clean lines, classic yet updated style with rich wood and painted mixed cabinets, center island, upgraded stainless appliances, coordinating tile backsplash, pot faucet over stove, breakfast bar and custom window blinds. Best yet, the sellers designed a charming new custom butler's pantry/bar that is simply a show stopper. A convenient laundry area near back door access to a lovely private patio and a fully updated stylish half bath complete the first floor. The second floor offers hardwood floors throughout with an elegant primary bedroom with ensuite bath, dual closets, and two other generous-sized bedrooms which share a chic updated hall bath. The recently finished third floor provides a spacious fourth bedroom with beautiful natural light, half palladian windows, brick interior walls, custom built-ins and a large closet. Cuddle up with a great book or use this space as a fabulous office. The clean, polished basement is ready for your future finishes or fantastic storage. Finally, the two car detached garage was completely redesigned with overhead storage and a one-of-a kind carport with unique custom scrollwork wall. Come see all of the new updates including a high efficiency multi-zone HVAC system. Easy commuting to NYC via local trains and Philadelphia, King of Prussia and Princeton via I-295, PA Turnpike and Route 1. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own one of Westover's finest homes in a quintessential Bucks County community.
