Situated on a large lot in the charming Borough of Newtown sits this quaint Colonial. With its origins dating back to 1923, this home has been lovingly transformed and updated throughout its 52 years of ownership. The main living level boats rich hardwood floors, beautiful millwork, a more formal living room, dining room with vaulted ceiling and a wall of windows, a very generously sized eat-in kitchen with center island and plenty of storage in the timeless custom cabinets as well as a cozy family room with beamed ceiling & wood burning fireplace and library with tailor-made bookshelves. The second living level offers a primary bedroom with walk-in closet plus two double closets, a sweater closet, custom cabinets, linen closet and full bath with stall shower & jetted tub. Two additional bedrooms with double closets, a full hall bath and a small flex space round out the second floor. A large brick patio off the rear of the home offers a wonderful place to enjoy your morning coffee, dine al-fresco or simply gather to enjoy the outdoors. The open and level yard is enclosed in front by a charming picket fence, and in the rear by a privacy fencing. Enjoy swimming in the in-ground pool at the rear of the yard – also surrounded by brick patios. Walk to town. Convenient to shopping and dining with easy access to I-95. Award winning Council Rock School District. Agent Elizabeth Danese has an ownership interest in this property and related to the co-owner owner.
