This well-manicured home has presence, is perfect for entertaining, and is arguably one of the prettiest homes on the street. Once you drive down the long, paved driveway and pull into one of the bays of the attached two-car garage you won't want to leave. A beautifully landscaped flagstone walkway leads you to the front porch and the main entrance of the home. Once inside you will be welcomed into a gorgeous living room area with new wide-plank flooring, recessed lighting, crown molding, and a handsome stone fireplace fitted with a pellet stove and an elegant white mantle with built-ins on either side. On the other side of the staircase, you will discover an elegant dining room with the same wide-plank floors, a bow window, crown molding, and wainscoting—it is the perfect place to host a dinner party or a large holiday celebration. Adjacent to the living and dining rooms is a bright and cheery custom kitchen with granite counters, an island, under cabinet lighting, a smooth cooktop range, two ovens, a tumbled marble backsplash, stainless steel appliances, wide plank floors, recessed lighting, crown molding, and everyone's favorite...a window over the sink! Wait until you see the view of the expansive backyard. Just off the kitchen through a glass-paned pocket door is a magazine-worthy mudroom area complete with custom built-ins and a convenient powder room. It leads you out the side door to the breathtaking, fenced-in backyard that will be the envy of your friends and family. It's the perfect space to host your housewarming party! There is a patio for dining and relaxing and plenty of space for lawn games and anything else you may desire. There's even a lighted basketball court area. The lower level of the home can be accessed from the outdoor staircase near the mudroom entrance or from the staircase back inside the home just off the kitchen area. This level of the home features a fantastic family room with LVP flooring, crown molding, recessed lighting, and a convenient closet. It's a great spot to continue the party or to kick back to watch a movie or sporting event. The other half of the lower level is used as a laundry/storage/utility area. The finished area of this level adds additional livable square feet not noted in the above grade square footage. When you’re done entertaining downstairs and outside your new home, you’ll be happy to retreat to one of the four nicely sized bedrooms, all with the same beautiful wide-plank flooring found on the floor below and plenty of closet space, too Three of the four bedrooms share a hall bathroom with a tub/shower combo, while the primary bedroom features an en suite bathroom with a stall shower. Don't miss the large balcony accessed via one of the back bedrooms. It's a lovely spot to relax with a book and enjoy some sunshine. Other notable features of this home include a new roof (2022), new HVAC (2021), newer windows (2017), wired for a generator, gas line running from street to home if you prefer gas appliances. Now let’s talk about the neighborhood featuring mature trees and plants, well-manicured homes, and an unofficial community association that hosts fun activities and social gatherings throughout the year. It's truly magical—like something out of a storybook. Are you a nature lover? You will love visiting the neighboring Willow Lake Farm Preserve and Prophecy Creek Park areas offering miles of breathtaking trails through pastures, streams, and woods. As if all of that wasn't enough, this home is also located in the top-rated Wissahickon School District and near to all of the shopping and dining conveniences of downtown Ambler along with neighboring Blue Bell, Lower Gwynedd, Plymouth Meeting, Flourtown, and Chestnut Hill. Comes with a one year home warranty!
