Welcome to 6 Merion Rd. in Chestnut Hill Estates, a wonderful and convenient community, great for first time home buyers or downsizing. Some vision and sweat equity will go a long way with this one as its in need of updating. It could certainly be lived in while renovating. This is a classic front to back split level with vaulted main floor ceilings with a split staircase going up to 3 bedrooms and a full bath or down to a family room and bonus room or 4th bedroom, along with a laundry area and 1/2 bath. The garage has been enlarged and extended and includes a sun room off the back. She's not the prettiest one on the block but she's ready to become one. THIS IS A SORT SALE and subject to 3rd party mortgage company approval and subject to the sellers acceptance of those approval terms. The property is being sold as-is with no warranties expressed or implied. Home inspections are for informational purposes only. Buyer may be responsible for any of their own lender required repairs. Until all approvals are complete, it is recommended that the buyer not finalize their mortgage or title process.
