Property Overview
5301A Mountville Rd is a brick ranch positioned on 0.88 acre in Adamstown. The setting is one of the strongest features here, with a large usable yard, mature landscaping, split-rail fencing, and open views across surrounding fields.
The main level has hardwood floors, a functional kitchen and dining setup, two bedrooms, updated full bath, and a large enclosed sunroom. The attached garage and expansive lower level add considerably more utility than the above-grade square footage alone suggests.
