126 Wetzel Ave, Beavertown, PA 17813

Check out this 2000 square foot Dutch Colonial on a spacious .25 acre corner lot in the sleepy, friendly neighborhood of Beavertown! Some loving care and improvement will make this house a charming home for a growing family, or it could be used as a profitable single or potentially a double rental unit. Some remodeling has been done (some updated wiring; some vinyl siding hung; etc.); some still remains to be done! Back in the early 1900s, many people began buying "kit homes" from Sears & Roebuck, Montgomery Ward, and other manufacturers. They would order the home, go to the railroad station, and come back with a kit that contained all the supplies needed to build their desired home! This home appears to be an adapted floor plan one of those (possibly the Rembrandt from Sears or 12322-B from C. L. Bowes). As such, it is full of character and history! The main floor of this large home features a very large living room (with working wood fireplace) with adjoining office or storage room, a foyer with cloak closet, a dining room, and a large kitchen (appliances included) with an adjoining 16'x8' laundry room and bathroom. Most of the wood floors (upstairs and downstairs) have been recently refinished, and a vinyl tile floor has recently been installed in the kitchen. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, a walk-in hall closet, a linen closet, and a full bath. There is a full staircase to access the spacious and easy-to-use attic area. The back yard is fenced in by a tall privacy fence--a perfect place for kids to play! For someone who enjoys fresh produce, there is adequate space for a garden. There are a number of fruit trees--apple, peach, pear, sour cherry, and sweet cherry, as well as several maple trees that can (and have been!) tapped for homemade maple syrup! Attached to one side of the house is a newly constructed carport, and on the other side, a large side porch runs the length of the house. The owner intended to rent the home long term, but has decided because of the distance that they are going to advertise it at a discount for a quick sale. Showings are available to serious potential buyers.
