As you approach the home, you are greeted by a bright and cheery enclosed front porch. This is such a comfortable space, it will serve as living space most months of the year. From the porch, you will enter into the living room where you will fall in love with the abundance of natural light that this home offers. The living room is nicely sized and open to the spacious dining room with deep windowsill. Through the dining room, you will find the kitchen offering a dishwasher and the all important window over the sink. Off the kitchen is a useful mud room/pantry space that offers access to the rear yard. The first floor also offers two bright bedrooms and a full bathroom with linen cubby. Down below, the finished walk-out basement includes two separate rooms that could easily serve as 3rd and 4th bedrooms (one is currently being used as a storage area), a large open room, the laundry area, and a full bathroom. There is walk-out access directly into the backyard which offers plenty of room for play and gardening. The yard runs all the way down the Wissahickon Creek offering your own private oasis. On the other side of the creek you will find the Green Ribbon Trail, which is a spectacular 12+ mile trail running along the creek from Upper Gwynedd to Flourtown (and soon to connect all the way to Wissahickon Valley Park in Philadelphia). The trail is quite the treasure in our area and this is a fantastic opportunity to have firsthand access anytime you want! Out front, there is a driveway that accommodates one car and there is always plenty of street parking out front. The roof is brand new as of February 2020. Downtown Ambler is a hop, skip, and a jump away offering fabulous restaurants, breweries, shops, theater AND playhouse, annual festivals, seasonal farmers' market, and Weaver's Way grocery store. Commuting is a breeze with the ability to walk/bike to the train station or hop in your car and be on route 309 in minutes. This is a great opportunity to own a charming single family home in sought after Wissahickon School District with unbelievably low taxes for a great price. Don't delay!
