This impressive home is less than a 5 minute drive to Chestnut Hill and is in the Springfield School District. It is convenient to many shops and restaurants and to 309 and the turnpike. There is a new Springfield Township state of the art elementary (K-2) school located across the street and that is nearing completion. This beautiful home is priced to reflect updating that is needed and is being sold in as is condition but rarely does an property like this become available so don't miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind property. 2020-08-26
