A rare opportunity to purchase a first-floor condo in desirable Mifflin Park Condominium, this 2 BR, 1 bath unit is even more rare with only one step into the front door. It features public water and sewer, replacement windows, appliances that remain, a full dining room, a small family room in the lower level, low taxes, brick exterior, a great location (between Lancaster Avenue and 724), within walking distance of grocery stores and market, shopping center, medical professionals, a public swimming pool, tennis and pickle ball courts, and the Governor Mifflin Senior and Junior High schools, stadium and athletic fields. This unit has a rear porch that affords privacy and that sense of peace that comes from knowing somebody else is going to be cutting your grass so you can just settle in and relax. The laundry area is in the basement, and this property comes with a Bruno ISO 9001 Certified SRE-2000 Electra-Ride Elite Stairlift, so no concerns for heading down to that lower level to utilize the family room or basement area. One of only 50 units in this professionally managed community, this unit was passed down from owner to owner within the same family and has been taken care of as evidenced by the Repair and Upgrade list available to prospective buyers. Sorry, the condo Rules & Regs do not allow pets, and the seller has requested no Escalation Clauses. This easy access, ideally located, entry level condo checks all the boxes that buyers have been hoping for, and here it is! Don’t let it get away!
