Tucked away on an expansive double-wide lot in Bridesburg, this one-of-a-kind home blends cozy character with thoughtful, modern updates, including a brand-new mini split system throughout for year-round comfort. Plus, the convenience of gated two-car parking! From the moment you step inside, you’re welcomed by a warm, inviting living room anchored by original wood paneling, custom built-ins, and a wood-burning stove- details that give the home soul and a true sense of comfort. The main level flows effortlessly from the living room into a separate wood-paneled dining area and onward to a fully renovated kitchen, updated with today’s buyers in mind. Just beyond, a completely reconstructed rear sunroom adds bright, flexible living space and opens to the expansive outdoor area, perfect for morning coffee, casual entertaining, or simply enjoying the extra breathing room this property offers.
