17 SASSAFRAS DR Southampton, PA 18966

Welcome to 17 Sassafras Drive, a stone front split level on a quiet street in Northampton Township, in the heart of the Council Rock School District. Families spend years trying to get into this district, and this one sits on nearly half an acre in a neighborhood people rarely leave once they land in it.

One family lived here since 1977. Now it is ready for yours.

Step through the double front doors into a bright foyer and you get a sense of the house right away. Built well and cared for, with real bones and a layout that works. What makes this one different is the chance to put your own stamp on it. Choose your own flooring, your own colors, your own finishes, and build equity while you are at it. Opportunities like this in Council Rock do not come around often.

The kitchen is beautiful. Cherry cabinets, granite counters, tumbled tile backsplash, stainless appliances, recessed lighting. A granite peninsula gives you a place to pull up a stool for coffee, and a second granite counter at table height turns into the spot everyone gathers around when you have people over. Sliders open right off the kitchen to the deck, so summer dinners barely have to travel.

That deck looks out over the best part of the property. Nearly half an acre, level, fenced, framed by mature shade trees. Room for a garden, a swing set, a fire pit, a dog with somewhere to run, and still plenty of lawn left over. Yards like this are getting harder to find.

Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms, including a primary with its own full bath and double closets. Two and a half baths in all, plus central air, an attached garage, and a full basement with laundry, workshop space, and storage.

Council Rock schools, an established Bucks County neighborhood, minutes to shopping and commuting routes, and a yard you will actually use.
