1930's Old-world charm and architectural details abound in this fabulous Shillington Borough 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath stone home with a truly magical backyard perfect for entertaining! Beautiful hardwood flooring flows throughout most of the home. The formal living room, adorned with crown molding and a beautiful stone wood-burning fireplace, opens to a side-covered private patio ideal for enjoying countless evenings. Original French doors open to a spacious dining area, accented by built-in corner cabinets, creating the perfect setting for both casual meals and formal gatherings. The dining area seamlessly flows into a large kitchen boasting ample cabinet and counter space, along with a convenient pantry closet for extra storage. The main level also includes a large family room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, a practical mudroom/laundry room providing access to the rear yard, and a half bath for guests. Upstairs, the second level hosts four very spacious bedrooms and a large hall bath, plus a delightful deck overlooking the backyard. A true highlight is the third-floor bedroom, complete with its own private full bath ideal for guest quarters or a tranquil retreat. The partially finished lower level offers incredible potential for additional living space. The focal point is a striking, oversized stone fireplace with built-in shelving, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Ideal for a game/media room or create a unique entertainment space with a modern speakeasy vibe. For the hobbyist or DIY enthusiast, the unfinished area provides a dedicated space for projects, offering the potential for a well-organized and functional workshop. Escape to your own private oasis.
