As a home buyer, you probably have an idea of what you want in a home. You’re thinking hardwood floors are a must, an updated kitchen is highly important as well, and a nice sized master bedroom, well, that’d be nice too. How about a waterfront view, though?

“Can I really afford a home with a waterfront view,” you ask? Well with this spectacular 1960s contemporary, yes, you totally can, and for $300K no less.

Sitting above the Perkiomen Creek in Collegeville, this blue home stands out from the rest, and not just because it’s blue.

Those hardwood floors you were asking about are actually eco-friendly, and the updated, gourmet kitchen includes all new countertops, appliances and a breakfast bar.

A living room with built-ins and a fireplace has direct access to your patio and the deck, which offers perfect 360-degree views of your private riverfront. Meanwhile, upstairs in the master bedroom, you have the same stunning view right from the comfort of your own bed.

From just about anywhere in the home, you’ll be able to enjoy the sounds of the bubbling creek while sitting in contemporary paradise. Oh, and although you’re completely secluded from the hustle and bustle of the city, you’re just a few miles from the major highways.
