    What's special

    Welcome to one of New Britain Borough’s Treasures! 138 West Butler Avenue is the original schoolhouse of the area dating back to a time of keen architecture and quality craftsmanship. The current owners have lovingly cared for this home for over 40 years while adding space, thoughtful details, and modern conveniences. As we step inside, we find a recently remodeled enclosed front porch. Two large closets for storage, high ceilings and lots of windows. We enter the original homestead with gleaming hardwoods, deep window sills, dining area and exposed stone hosting the gas stove fireplace for those cold winter evenings. The open plan positions the kitchen right off the main gathering area ideal for today’s lifestyle. We pass through a room that could be used for a home office, reading area or the imagination of the next steward. You’ll also find a full bathroom with bead board, soaking tub, and plenty of storage space in the cabinets. The owners added the gorgeous four season sunroom with heated floors, skylights, windows that slide to let the summer air flow through and exposed stone & steps, that reminds you of the history of this home. Walking up to the 2nd floor with the custom spiral stairs to find an open landing area with lots of closet space and loft area for a multitude of uses. The primary bedroom overlooks the scenic backyard with a large picture window, exposed beams and stone. The full bathroom has a large vanity, sliding glass door shower and storage space for linens. Next the 2nd bedroom, currently being used as a home office, has a large closet for storage. The lower-level stairs are strategically placed allowing plenty of room for storage, workshop space and access to the back or side yards. Stepping outside we find the bonus space with a detached garage, parking and a heated space for a home office, gym, or man cave/she shed. The possibilities are plentiful to utilize this area for the new owner. The property sits on .78 picturesque acres with yard space for outdoor activities and privacy when entertaining or enjoying your morning coffee. 138 West Butler Avenue is conveniently located to major traffic routes such as 202, 611 and 152 and walkable to the New Britain train station with easy access to Philadelphia. Points of interest such as Peace Valley Park and Doylestown Borough to enjoy restaurants, shopping, museums and all the Borough has to offer. Schedule a showing today and let this piece of history be your next place to call home!
