BETTER THAN NEW! If you are looking for privacy and elegance in a peaceful setting, this is it! Conveniently located in sought-after Halford Tract, this stunning home sits high above the Schuylkill River and is the perfect retreat from the stress of everyday life.
Tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac on over 2 acres, almost every inch of this home has been upgraded by the original owner and is filled with high-end, top-quality features.
The custom-designed kitchen has floor-to-ceiling solid maple cabinets, granite counters, ceramic tile floor, bar sink, built-in appliances, Fisher & Paykel stove, and special lighting. Hardwood floors throughout rest of the first floor - entry hall, living room, dining room, family room and office/sitting room. Enjoy river and sunset views from the den in winter.
The primary bedroom has a cherry floor, substantial closet storage, sitting area, and an updated custom-designed bath with solid cherry cabinets, marble counter, porcelain floor with limestone accents, and travertine stone lining the walls and custom shower.
The basement is an entertainer's dream and its own special hideout. You'll find gorgeous custom solid cherry cabinets with a real stone bar, granite counters, special lighting and plentiful high-end Sub-Zero refrigerators for your wine collection. Other areas of the basement include a seating area around a gas-fired stone fireplace, custom workout room with commercial-grade floor padding, full bath, and sliders to the patio.
Outside, enjoy lush professional plantings, real stone patios with stone seating, firepit, and large multi-level deck. Other extras include a Cloudburst sprinkler system, security system and video security cameras, water softener/conditioner, cedar shed with a potting bench, a (truly) whole house generator, new driveway, and 50-year roof (with transferrable warranty).
In this meticulously-maintained, one-of-a-kind gem, you can enjoy the peace, tranquility and privacy of your own retreat at the end of the day - or work while you enjoy your lush surroundings. Or... take your bike for a spin on the Schuylkill bike path, which is just 2 blocks away.
