Property Description
Welcome to 539 Wallace Avenue, a lovingly maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home nestled on a beautiful 0.43-acre lot in the desirable Cornwells Manor section of Bensalem. Offering a wonderful combination of character, comfort, functionality, and opportunity, this special property is ready for its next chapter. Step inside to find a spacious and inviting layout with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the main level. The kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and plenty of workspace, while hardwood flooring lies beneath much of the existing carpeting, offering an opportunity to reveal even more of the home's original character. The full basement provides valuable additional space for a variety of needs, including a partially finished living area, storage, workshop space, and a charming vintage wet bar. A fireplace adds to the basement's character and creates possibilities for a future recreation room, home office, or gathering space. Outside, the beautifully landscaped grounds provide plenty of room to relax, garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the privacy of the expansive property. An oversized detached garage offers excellent versatility for a hobbyist, mechanic, collector, workshop, or additional storage and is equipped with electric service, an interior hose connection, and a floor drain. Additional features include central air conditioning, public water and sewer, two exterior entrances, and a whole-house generator for added peace of mind. The property is also located just moments from the Delaware River while remaining outside the federal flood zone. With its generous lot, flexible living spaces, detached garage, and convenient Bensalem location, 539 Wallace Avenue presents a rare opportunity to own a well-cared-for home with tremendous character and room to make it your own.
