Craftsman, Straight Thru, Traditional

Loaded with character and charm and ready to move right into and enjoy, you’re going to love this porch-front Craftsman twin in the heart of Lansdale Boro. There are two very nice sized porches, front and back, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee and a book in the morning or a drink at the end of a long day at work. The first floor has an open layout, with the living room at the front door, a nice sized dining room with a box bay window that floods the space with natural light, and an amazing country kitchen that still has some of its original cabinetry as well as an oversized butcher block top island workspace and breakfast bar seating. This room is sure to be the heart of the home and a space that you’ll enjoy both daily and while hosting. A door leads off the kitchen to the covered back porch and fenced in yard, which also has a storage shed. If you wanted to create an off-street parking space, there’s an option here to do so off the back where there is an existing curb break on the street behind. On the second floor there are three bedrooms and a nicely updated bathroom. On the third floor, presently a walk up attic, there is potential to finish and condition this space, adding either a 4th bedroom or home office (this room would roughly be 12x12 finished). The unfinished basement has plenty of storage space. Throughout you’ll find original trim, doors, and hardwood floors, all of which give this home amazing old world charm. Outside is a beautifully landscaped front and back yard, containing many native plants and trees, some of which will flower in the spring and summer months and attract butterflies and hummingbirds. Just a few blocks away from this home you’ll find a number of restaurants, bars, shops and the Lansdale Regional Rail Station. Come visit 39 E 5th Street and find your way home!
