This architectural gem, built in 1952 and nestled on 0.26 acres, is situated in the heart of Mount Joy. The solid brick construction and modern windows of this Cape Cod home keeps you well-insulated year-round, providing both comfort and floods of natural light. As you step into the living room, the cozy fireplace, build-in shelving, and hardwood floors create a warm, welcoming space to escape from the cares of the day. Step through the arched doorway into the dining room to find elegant lighting, warm hardwoods, and more luminous windows. The kitchen offers a tranquil place to savor that first cup of coffee as morning light streams onto the laminate flooring. The tiled backsplash, ample cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances make for both a beautiful and functional kitchen. Add an island, dry bar, or coffee hutch to tailor the space to your needs. Walk up the stairs to the second floor where you’ll find 2 generously-sized bedrooms. In addition to spacious rooms, large closets, and beautiful hardwoods, there are unique, craftsman-style elements, such as dormer windows that create an ideal nook for a comfy chair and a good book. The full bathroom is bright and airy, with a full tub and shower. A third bedroom, with a large walk-in closet and another full bathroom, can be found in the basement. Also downstairs, closed off from the bedroom suite, is a large area for storage or a workshop. The backyard is fenced in, with a detached 2-car garage and massive driveway that can park up to 12 cars. This home is also located in the Neighborhood Commercial Zoning area so you can run an in-home business from your home as well. With so much warmth and space, unique character and central location, this is a Mount Joy home you need to come and see for yourself.
