This charming property has been wonderfully maintained and is in absolute move in condition. If you have been in other Capes in Haywood Park, you will be surprised by the layout here, as it is unique to the neighborhood. You will be pleased to see the open concept that greets you. The wall that typically separates the kitchen and dining room has been opened up and there is a lovely bar connecting the two rooms. The eye is immediately drawn through the first floor into the living room at the far end (which is typically a bedroom). The space is vast, offering great connectivity, making it ideal for entertaining. If you enjoy cooking, you will love the amount of counter space and gas cooking. The kitchen offers outdoor access to a covered patio, the perfect location for grilling and al fresco meals. Back inside, the dining room is very large, however, with the open concept, one could easily have a smaller dining area and a huge living room. If so desired, a 3rd bedroom could be created in the living room space w/ the addition of some drywall & a door. Down the hall off of the living room is a 1st floor bedroom, full bath & large storage closet. The 2nd floor offers a lovely bedroom w/ built in storage & window seat, along with another full bath, tons of closet space, & a bright sitting room. This fantastic space could work as an office, library, playroom, studio space, you name it. There is hardwood flooring under the carpet in this area. The basement is unfinished and offers great work space, laundry area & tons of storage. The ceilings are high and the basement was waterproofed and comes w/ a transferrable warranty. Outside, the yard and patio are the perfect place to relax and enjoy a beautiful day. The perennials will bring you joy from Spring through Fall and the detached garage with electric offers a place to park or a work shop. Some highlights include the abundance of natural light, original random width hardwood flooring, open kitchen, charming patio w/ arbor that will boast clematis blooms, thoughtfully planted garden that will keep you in fresh cut flowers all season, central air and replacement windows. All of this in fantastic Ambler Borough & sought after Haywood Park w/ excellent Wissahickon Schools, extremely reasonable taxes and walkability to downtown Ambler, several parks & more!
