Description

Welcome to the National Registry Historic District of Langhorne Borough and our Victorian Queen Anne charmer. Also known as The Stephen Kirk House, 127 East Marshall Avenue was built in 1886, just as its historic registry front door plaque proudly states. The current residents are the 13th owners and celebrate a 48-year span of loving devotion to home ownership. MAIN LEVEL: Walk onto your charming front porch (20'x8'x20') and enter through double French doors into your foyer. Notice the traditional circular floor plan and 10' ceilings. A sweeping wood banister/railing staircase leads upstairs, a hallway back to the kitchen and a large open doorway into your formal living room. Through the living room with tall windows, vintage pendant light, another set of glass French doors leads to an over-sized formal dining room with a $3K refurbished glass/brass chandelier. The dining room has a historically accurate additional exterior door. For modern convenience a main floor half bathroom was added. Venture into the retro black & white checkered floored kitchen with gas cooking, lots of white cabinets/drawers and countertop space, a seating area/space for an island and stainless-steel appliances. The Sunroom directly off the kitchen doubles as a morning breakfast room and evening sitting room. Through glass French doors enter your enclosed porch (10’x16’). LOWER LEVEL: Notice the newly sealed concrete gray floors, white walls, drainage system, lots of storage space, windows letting in natural light, room for a workspace and convenient Bilco doors. UPPER LEVEL: Bask in your large full bathroom with a stunning Carrara marble floor, glass door tub/shower, porcelain pedestal sink and a mirrored door to your laundry room. Multiple storage closets, 2 large and 1 mid-sized bedroom along with a small 6th bedroom/office complete the 2nd floor. The large front bedroom was previously used as the primary bedroom. A jointed door adds character as you're led up a set of stairs from the hallway to the 3rd floor. UPPER LEVEL 2: This level was used as a functional in-law suite, but could easily be converted into whatever space needs you have. Enjoy 2 large rooms with closets and windows which could be used as bedrooms/living room/office/playroom/extra storage. The kitchenette room has a working sink, space for microwave, refrigerator and a small dining set. There’s a nice full bathroom with tub/shower and window. Through the closet in the back room there is an access panel to the attic. EXTERIOR: The back yard has its very own choreographed character and features a mature perennial garden, a custom designed paver patio (15'X16'), wrought iron fencing, rose covered trellis, white picket fencing and gates, grape vine covered arbor and trellis, Americana detached 2-car garage and workshop and a long level paved driveway. Your garage could be used for parked cars, a woodworking shop, man cave or general storage area.
