Property Description
Are you looking for a private sanctuary in award-winning Wissahickon School District? 1580 Penllyn Blue Bell Pike offers much more than a charming home on three tranquil acres. A location like this, with land, privacy, and serenity just within two miles of major transportation routes, employment centers, shopping, public and private schools and just a 30 minute drive into Center City Philadelphia is rare to find. As you make your way down the long driveway you will see a 1922 Cape Cod home set against a backdrop of tall pines. Stepping through the front door, you will find a warm and welcoming traditional Cape Cod interior with a spacious 26' x 16' open, living-dining area, hardwood floors, 6 panel wood doors with historic Bow House hardware, and an original antique, pine wall and deep mantle surrounding a brick fireplace. Just off the dining area is a large first floor main bedroom with a full bath, walk in closet and laundry room. The kitchen, open to family room features random width, old growth pine floors and a Vermont Castings wood stove bordered by Mercer tiles and brick. Upstairs you will find two additional bedrooms, a sitting area, built in linen storage and a full bath. Other features include a two car attached garage and a separate home office or media room, built for listening to or recording music. There is a full, unfinished basement and an exterior Amish built storage shed. The woods have trails for walking, jogging, or cross country skiing (three times around is a mile!) and mature trees with specimen plantings. The vegetable garden has raised beds, apple, pear, plum, peach, cherry and apricot trees, all organically grown for over twenty years. The roof was replaced in 2020. This bucolic beauty in Blue Bell offers a lovely place to raise a family or just settle into a quiet life surrounded by nature in a most convenient setting. There is an additional parcel included 66-00-05272-215 which brings total lot to 3.14 acres and allows for possible subdivision.
