Set on a quiet 1.1 acre lot in the Tulpehocken School District, this well-kept bi-level offers generous space, thoughtful updates, and a long-term advantage in rising energy costs. The owned, ground-mounted solar array is fully installed and conveys with the home, providing meaningful insulation from increasing electric rates and allowing future savings to grow as utility prices continue to climb. Inside, the main level is bright and inviting, with hardwood floors and a layout that flows easily from the living room into the updated kitchen. Quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an open connection to the dining area make the kitchen both functional and visually striking. Sliding doors lead to a deck that extends the living space outdoors and overlooks the peaceful setting. The primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, excellent natural light, and updated luxury vinyl plank flooring, along with a private half bath, walk-in closet, and direct access to its own deck for a quiet retreat. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level. The lower level adds substantial flexibility with a large family room featuring new carpet and a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting space for winter evenings. A bonus room provides options for a home office or additional bedroom, along with a separate storage room and laundry area with access to the backyard. Fresh paint throughout gives the home a clean, move-in-ready feel. Outside, the expansive yard offers room to relax, garden, or entertain while still being conveniently located near major routes, shopping, and dining. This is a home that balances comfort, efficiency, and long-term value in a setting that feels both private and connected.
