Description
Serene Farmhouse in a bucolic 3.5-acre setting. You've been waiting for a historical charmer on some ground that's modern enough for your gang, but offers the opportunity to make it your own. The extensive landscaping features a skilled gardener's selection of plantings, perennials, and trees. Southern facing gently sloped fertile soil promises a knock-out veggie garden you've always said is a must-have. This home is a gorgeous historic Pennsylvania Architectural brick with a sprawling front porch over a stone foundation. Lovingly upgraded and updated, the heart of the house is a fantastic eat-in kitchen with modern appliances, which opens to the extremely private back patio. Unique wide plank flooring from a bygone era. Contrast the history with most modern concepts like high-efficiency wall-hung gas hot water and central Air. 121 Metka is a hard-to-find and stunning little farmette awaiting new owners who desire to surround their lives in a setting that supports animals and kids and is big enough for everyone's dream and vision of home. A stone's throw to Limerick Community Park, a remarkable 70 Acre treasure featuring two pavilions, 3 softball fields, two little league fields, a baseball field, two sand volleyball courts, two basketball courts, two restroom facilities, and a 1.1-mile paved walking/running track with 12 fitness stations. Wow! Within the excellent Spring-Ford school system and a bus stop at your driveway. You would be right to guess that this type of forever home is rare. Showings begin Thanksgiving weekend.
