Listing description

Tucked away with lots of mature landscape, this well cared for cape cod home has many upgrades and special features. The custom kitchen and millwork throughout the house are exceptional. The home offers a traditional cape floor plan with an expansive living room, first floor family room and a lower level recreation room. Attic storage is also expansive for those who love closets and lots of nooks and crannies to place items. The rear deck and pavilion overlook much of Spring Township and are especially nice to watch the fireworks or air shows. The outside recreation area of multiple levels is expansive enough for large gatherings and use of the inground Anthony Sylvan 18’ x 36’ kidney-shaped pool, with a steel-reinforced concrete, gunite-finish. The location of this home is just a hop from Rt 222, Rt 422, Rt 724 and the PA Turnpike. Shopping, eateries, schools and places of worship are all close by.
