Property Description
Welcome to 42 Clayton Ave, a home that has been in the family since the 1967 when the home was built. First time being offered for sale outside the family. This ranch home offers so much potential to someone who has the vision. This home sits on 1.3 acres of land located in Tilden Township. This property benefits from a light use easement from the neighbor that provides access to the rear of the property. The yard in its hay day was landscaped to the 9's and with a little love you can bring it right back to full life. The back yard has enough space to add a pool, play area, build an outside entertainment area and much more. Let's go inside - when you approach the front door you will be tempted to sit in the patio furniture and just enjoy the quiet while sipping on your favorite beverage. If you get past that urge and enter the front door you will be in a large living room that you can see straight thru to the sun room with Pella windows and back yard. Passing thru the living room you enter the dining area that is open to the kitchen. The kitchen offers appliances that are nostalgic but functioning. Just off the kitchen is a large family room with a fireplace, access tot he rear patio, garage as well as a private office area. The office area has a second private entrance from the driveway because it was used as a home business office back in the day. Buyer to verify with the township to determine allowed uses. If more space is what you want stroll back to the dining area to enter the spacious sunroom where you can enjoy morning coffee or afternoon tea. Plenty of sunlight for your favorite plants as well. The outside living space off the family room and sun room provide a sanctuary like space to enjoy those warm day and evenings. The main floor of the ranch has three private bedrooms with hard wood floors and a full bath just down the hall from the main living room. Under the carpet of the living room and dining area are the original hardwood floors. So you want more space, let's go to the basement that currently has a 3/4 bath and laundry room with the potential of finishing off the remainder of the basement into one of countless configurations. Finally the carport and garage area provides space for two cars in a stacking configuration. Currently the second floor of the garage is used as living space featuring one bedroom, living room and kitchen. This area is supported by a full bath and laundry area on the first floor of the garage. As a result the living space there is a support wall in the middle of the garage to support the second floor living area and parking a car in the garage is not possible. Garage and living space above garage is heated by electric baseboard. The cooking is propane. The solar panel on the roof does not provide electricity to the home it powers a fan/ventilation system that blows hot air into the home from the attic space as a supplemental heat source, old technology but still works . Come and visit this ranch home that is chuck full of potential before it is gone.
