Upon first approach one is keenly aware this home has been lovingly maintained inside and out. Solid built wrapped in stone and siding with replacement windows providing a low maintenance exterior. Passing through the front door into the entry foyer we find traditional arched entries, classic glass door knobs and exposed, polished hardwood floors flowing throughout the first and second floors. So hang your coat in the foyer closet and let me take you on a tour of your new home. To your right through the arched entry is a spacious living room bathed in natural light cascading through sparkling replacement triple front windows creating a warm and inviting glow for all who enter. Focal point of this room is the striking well crafted stone fireplace complete with gas logs, brass & glass doors and slate hearth. As you can see the floor plan was designed for relaxed entertaining as well as casual living. At the far end of the room is an attractive leaded glass door leading to the flagstone screened rear porch. The arched entry on the left guides you to the handsome formal dining room sized just right to accommodate gatherings large or small. Finishing touches include chair rail, crown molding, an eye-catching ceiling medallion for the chandelier and sliding doors access to the screened porch. For the chef in you we have the designer gourmet kitchen and sizeable greenhouse breakfast room creating an impressive open airy living space. Appliances include GE Profile double oven smooth surface electric range, GE Profile French door refrigerator with bottom drawer freezer, built in Whirlpool microwave, Bosch dishwasher; abundant cabinetry with under cabinet lighting including a recipe desk, sub-mount stainless steel sink with disposal plus granite counterspace & glass& marble block tiled backsplash - all combine to make meal prep and clean up effortless. Note that the hardwood laminate floor is warmed by radiant heat. Take a step into the attractive greenhouse breakfast room to eat and partake in the beauty of the nature which surrounds you. A first floor front bedroom and ceramic tiled full bath complete this floor. Ascending the stairs from the foyer to the second floor we find a sizeable landing with a hall linen closet and pull down stairs to the attic. There is a ceramic tiled hall bath offering a tub with shower and sink vanity. This floor hosts 2 large peaceful bedrooms, each with hardwood flooring and good closet space. Venturing downstairs to the expansive multi-purpose basement level you will encounter a spacious & comfortable family room designed for casual entertaining & relaxation including a built-in dry bar, an eye-catching brick wall and built-in shelving. There is a 12 x 12 work room, a 23 x 12 laundry room with washer, dryer, double laundry tub & shelving for your laundry & cleaning products. Plenty of storage provided by 2 closets, a walk-in closet and storage under the stairs. Additional noteworthy features include: replacement windows, central air-conditioning, economical 2 zone heating system and more. The location is second to none close to Melrose Country Club, shopping & a variety of restaurants and quick & easy access to Center City.
