Description

Picture yourself in this delightfully spacious, 3,000+ S. F. Colonial on one of the quietest side streets in all of Jenkintown Borough! Just 4 blocks away from the Jenkintown/Wyncote train station and within easy walking distance to the schools on West Avenue and the shops along Old York Road, you will love its charm & character. Sited on an elevated lot, the property stands majestically on a rise, yet has a level rear yard for play or gardening. There is a detached 2-car garage with attic storage...Picture yourself in this delightfully spacious, 3,000+ S. F. Colonial on one of the quietest side streets in all of Jenkintown Borough! Just 4 blocks away from the Jenkintown/Wyncote train station and within easy walking distance to the schools on West Avenue and the shops along Old York Road, you will love its charm & character. Sited on an elevated lot, the property stands majestically on a rise, yet has a level rear yard for play or gardening. There is a detached 2-car garage with attic storage and ample parking for 3+ cars in the driveway as well. You enter into a delightful vestibule that has been enhanced with a marble mosaic tiled floor. The living room is anchored at one end by a stone fireplace and a large, rectangular bay window niche that faces the front yard. The dining room is huge, and has a large picture window with deep set window sills facing the side yard. The former front porch has been enclosed to provide additional living space as a 1st floor family/T. V. room that is accessed from either the living or dining rooms. The kitchen has been completely renovated and provides an abundance of custom cabinetry, all the necessary stainless steel appliances, granite counters and there's even room for a breakfast table tucked in the corner. The powder room is conveniently located near the rear mudroom. One accesses the upstairs via a butterfly staircase (from either the kitchen or the living room). On the 2nd floor, there are 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a separate office room and a cedar closet (with a laundry chute!). The master bedroom was combined from 2 smaller bedrooms, and now has ample room for a sitting area along with 4 closets. The 3rd floor has 2 large bedrooms tucked up into the eaves, a renovated hall bathroom and a "hidden" storage area. A portion of the basement is finished for those that need additional living space, while the laundry & a workshop complete the remaining space. Most of the systems in the house (roof, windows, electrical, chimney, water main, furnace, H/W heater, insulation) have been replaced during the past 10 years. Come discover one of the best "small towns" in suburban Philadelphia, where neighbors watch out for each other, you can still get fresh produce and other products at the weekly farmer's market (in season), enjoy a coffee and cupcake at Velvet Sky Bakery, take in a film at the Hiway Theater or enjoy fine dining at numerous restaurants (my personal favorite is King's Corner, an English-Scottish pub).
