If you know Newtown Borough, you know Andrew Drive in Washington Village. With its wide, gently curving streets, mature trees, established homes and nearby open green space, this is the kind of neighborhood feel that has made it a special place to call home for generations. Offered for the first time by its original owners, this five-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home has been lovingly cared for, expanded and enjoyed by the same family for more than 50 years. From holidays and family gatherings to quiet mornings at home, there is a true feeling of love here—and plenty of room for a new owner to make it their own. A curved stone walkway, perennial gardens and the home's stone exterior create a welcoming first impression. Inside, hardwood floors extend throughout much of the home, complemented by custom millwork and thoughtful architectural details that add warmth and character throughout. The oversized living room at the front of the home is bright and sunny, especially in the morning, with a beautiful bow window that brings in an abundance of natural light. Its generous proportions, hardwood floors and custom trim make it equally suited for everyday living or entertaining. The kitchen was thoughtfully renovated by well-known local builder Bruce Lesser and features beautiful inset cherry cabinetry, granite countertops and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. Lesser also designed the all-season sunroom addition, one of the home's most special spaces. Surrounded by windows and overlooking the backyard, it's an inviting spot for morning coffee, reading or simply enjoying the changing seasons. The main living spaces continue with an inviting family room featuring a wood-burning fireplace with built-in bookcases on either side. French doors from the family room open directly into the all-season sunroom, creating a natural extension of the living space. From both the kitchen and dining room, doors lead down bluestone steps to the beautiful brick patio, making outdoor dining and entertaining easy. Beyond the patio is an expansive, well-kept backyard with mature trees and plenty of open lawn. Upstairs are five nicely sized bedrooms, a rare find and one of the features that sets this larger Washington Village model apart. The primary bedroom is generously proportioned, with a walk-in closet and an additional closet for extra storage. Two full bathrooms have been updated, and hardwood flooring continues through the bedroom level. The fifth bedroom is especially spacious, with a vaulted ceiling and skylights, offering flexibility for a bedroom, home office, studio or bonus space. This room has two large closets, a separate storage room, and access to the attic with additional storage space. An expanded laundry room that doubles as a mudroom adds everyday convenience, while a two-car garage and large unfinished basement provide excellent storage and additional possibilities for the next owner. Beyond the home itself, there is something special about life in this neighborhood. It’s the kind of place where kids still ride bikes and play outside, neighbors gather for cookouts and Friday evenings together, and the streets glow during the neighborhood’s beautiful winter luminary display. The location makes it easy to enjoy everything Newtown has to offer. Head down to State Street for coffee, breakfast, dinner, shopping, parades and community events, or over to nearby Village at Newtown for even more shopping and dining. Goodnoe Elementary School and Roberts Ridge Park and Playground are accessed from Andrew Drive. For commuters, the location provides convenient access to Philadelphia and Princeton via 195 and 295, and Hamilton Train Station, providing rail service into Manhattan. Now being offered for the first time, 130 Andrew Drive is a wonderful opportunity to call one of Newtown Borough’s most loved neighborhoods home. Some spaces may be shown with virtual/AI staging.
