OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED! UNDER CONTRACT! Nestled in the quiet, established neighborhood of Andalusia, 1144 Highland Avenue offers a rare "best of both worlds" opportunity to enjoy a peaceful suburban retreat just a stone's throw from the vibrant shopping and dining of Bensalem. This home is exceptionally mechanically sound, featuring high-efficiency gas baseboard heat and gas cooking, along with a mini-split air conditioning system to keep the main floor cool. Major updates have already been addressed, including the replacement of most windows in 2022 and the installation of a brand-new basement sump pump with a battery backup in 2023. While the home is structurally robust and ready for move-in, it awaits your creative vision for the final cosmetic finishes and modern updates to truly make it shine. The interior layout is both spacious and unique, centered around a cozy living area featuring a working pellet stove set against a stunning decorative real stone wall. French doors lead to a covered sitting area in the backyard. This floor plan offers incredible flexibility with the second living area off of the kitchen having the option to alternately be used as a dining room. There's also plenty of private space here, with four bedrooms and three full baths in total. The main level hosts two comfortable bedrooms, while the upper floor features two additional bedrooms that both boast the rare luxury of their own private en-suite bathrooms! The upstairs is defined by its airy, open feel, as both the expansive loft and the main bedroom feature soaring vaulted ceilings. The main bedroom serves as a true retreat, offering two spacious walk-in closets and direct access to a deck balcony—a perfect spot for morning coffee shared with the adjacent loft. For those needing even more space, the loft could very easily be converted into a fifth bedroom with minimal expense, providing instant added value. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a large, flat, and fully fenced-in backyard that provides a secure oasis for recreation or gardening. An expansive driveway offers an abundance of off-street parking and there's a full unfinished basement that provides endless storage solutions. Perfectly situated with easy access to I-95, the PA Turnpike, and the Neshaminy Mall corridor, this property is the ideal canvas for a buyer looking to add personal value to a home with "good bones" and impressive architectural details in a premium location.
