70 Laurel St, Nanticoke, PA 18634

A beautiful 1900's colonial style single family dwelling. While this home coukld use a little TLC many of its recent renovations add to, or, improve the character of this once, upper-class manor. Located in a quiet, one way in, one way out neighborhood and standing 3 stories on a beautiful and spacious lot is a home that, from the outside, appears to be very modest while the only illuding to its beautiful and functional renovations are the 21 solar panels that eliminate the electric bill entirely. The landscaping, despite having seen better days is a bit of an echo of what was once a beautiful embodiment of the prestige this home carried perched atop a very old coal mining neighborhood that could only have been inhabited by coal company superintendent. Drive along the driveway to the rear of the house or access the property through an alley at the rear of the property and you will first come across the newly added "mud-room". What once was a small back porch has been transformed into a laundry room where the dirty clothes of a hard working man can be promptly thrown into the wash. Connected to the newly transformed mud-room is the completely renovated 3/4 bath. Both the mudroom door and the bathroom door lead into the no-expenses-spared renovated kitchen. Tall Craftmade cherry cabinets, brand new appliances, tile flooring and gorgeous granite countertops will grab your attention as well as anyone else who enters the house. All first floor rooms feature nearly 9ft ceilings and recently, professionally restored yellow pine and oak, hardwood flooring. the dining room, outside of the kitchen could use the loving touch of a professional drywall worker but this pales in contrast to the brand new stained pine doors in all rooms on the first floor, as well as the entirely replaced and custom fitted windows provided by the professionals at window world. Take notice of the vents in all rooms in either the floor or ceilings. The inefficient cast iron radiators and and prehistoric oil boiler have been gutted from this home as well as all window unit AC's as the newly installed centrall ac and heat system not only keeps the house at the perfect temperature year round but also makes certain that this home's air is as clean as any homes air should be. Also, with the addition of an internal french drain in the basement as well as an industrial grade dehumidifier and dual sump pumps with battery backup, water and moisture will NEVER be an issue. The first floor of this in-progress reno home leaves much to be desired from the second floor but nothing that cant be done with the help of a professional. Finally the third floor reveals the strong bones of the house. A wide open floor plan with no rooms or obstacles will have your imagination keeping you awake at night with the possibilities. as if that wasnt enough simply take a look at the view from the third floor window facing North and you will be left speachless at the view of neighboring Nanticoke and the beautiful Appalachian mountains with an expanse of woodland that seems to just keep going. Even the view from the first floor front porch will make you feel as though there is no better place to have a cup of coffe in the morning while your listen to the birds chirp or a beer at night after a long day at work while the sounds of the crickets nearly put you to sleep. whatever your plans, this house will be a beloved place you can call home for years, just as i have.
