What's special
Welcome to 140 N. State St. in the heart of Newtown Borough. This lovely porch front twin has been beautifully updated while keeping all the nuances of a historic home. Enter into the parlor with random width hardwood floors that flow throughout the entire house, a brick fireplace with bread oven & wooden mantel. The parlor leads into the center of the home where the stunning kitchen opens to a large living room with custom built in cabinets & bay window overlooking the backyard. This gorgeous kitchen has been completely renovated with custom cabinets & corner pantry with under cabinet lighting, soft close drawers, leathered granite counters, marble tile backsplash, farm sink, gas range, stainless steel appliances & recessed lights. The center island with pendant lighting has a beautiful custom wood counter. Off of the kitchen is the dining room with built in cabinets & separate entrance. The first floor powder room was also renovated with marble tile floor, marble top vanity & conveniently located washer & dryer. (In the past some owners have used the dining room as a first floor master & the powder room could easily be turned into a full bath by relocating the washer & dryer to the basement) Upstairs you will find the Master bedroom with its own fireplace & mantel, double closet & ceiling fan. The 2nd bedroom is also a good size and offers ample closet space as well. The remodeled hall bath with neutral tile, newer fixtures and pedestal sink completes the 2nd floor. The finished 3rd floor makes a great office, or 3rd bedroom with 3 windows allowing great light & a closet. Head down to the basement where all the newer mechanicals & systems such as the energy efficient gas heater are located along with another washer & dryer & a ton of storage room & shelves. Outside there is an entertaining area that leads back to a 2nd building approximately 600 sq. ft. that is heated & cooled, has its own separate electric panel & can be used as an in home business, or phenomenal art studio, play room, man cave etc. Attached to this building is a work shop. Behind the building is a very private fenced in yard with storage shed, a perfect spot for kicking back and relaxing. Welcome to 140 N. State St. where no stone has been left unturned, from the basement to the roof, everything has been replaced or updated while keeping its historic charm & character. On top of this there's a driveway with off street parking for multiple cars plus the fabulous Borough location.
