Property Description
This immaculate Mid-Century spacious split-level has surprises at every turn, both inside and outside! From the curb, a beautifully planted front garden provides four seasons of interest with a great combination of evergreens & shrubs that provide privacy from the street with numerous flowers & specimen trees. Approach the covered front porch and the modern double-entry door gives a glimpse at the space that one is about to experience inside. One enters into a vaulted living room (with a coat closet at the entry) that is anchored by the original full-height stone fireplace (now with a gas insert). The hardwood floors are in exceptional condition and the living & dining rooms are completely open to each other. A full bank of windows in the living room enjoy views of the front landscape, while a set of sliding doors and sidelights provide a great vista on the extensive & deep rear yard. The updated kitchen (renovated in 2003) provides an abundance of Hickory cabinets, Corian counters, a Bosch dishwasher, an electric stove & fridge. There is a sitting area within the kitchen that has a large window overlooking the rear yard that can accommodate a small table & 4 chairs. So let me take you down a half-flight of stairs to the large family room that has a wall of windows and a door to the rear yard & patio. A powder room is conveniently tucked into the corner, and one has direct access to the 2-car garage. But wait, there is another full level down another half-flight of stairs! Under the living room is another huge space that is currently used as an artist's studio that could be used for so many other purposes. Across the entire rear of this level (under the kitchen & dining room) is the laundry area, the mechanicals as well as a huge area for storage that has a full set of built-in shelving that provides great organization for all your stuff! From the living room, one ascends another half-set of stairs to the bedroom level. The primary bedroom overlooks the front yard with two closets and a completely renovated ensuite bathroom (in 2014) that provides a spacious stall shower with a frosted glass door. There are three more bedrooms and a hall bathroom on this floor. Now for the next surprise, and that is the scale & depth of the huge rear yard that has absolutely NO neighbors visible beyond! The lot is 0.77 acres, and the house's positioning closer to the street provides for an amazing yard. Close to the rear of the house, there are a series of perennial gardens that are just coming into full bloom at this time. Over half of the rear yard is left in a natural state with a huge grassy area. There's ample room should someone wish to install an in-ground pool, or simply use this space for soccer, baseball or other casual pursuits! With all of the nature that surrounds the property, and the lands beyond, mother nature is constantly in view, with an abundance of birds, deer, foxes and other visitors throughout the seasons. The roof, skylight, gutters, downspouts & soffits were all replaced in 2010, and all of the windows & doors have been replaced by the current owners. The H/W heater was replaced in 2017 and the electrical service was upgraded to 200 AMPs in 2022 along with a new panel & a whole house surge protector. It's the perfect definition of a move-in ready home, that is perfectly located within walking distance to 3 of the 4 township schools (Wyncote Elementary, Cedarbrook Middle & Cheltenham High). In 2 minutes one is on Route 309 with quick access to the PA Turnpike, or a 5 minute drive in the other direction will get one to the Jenkintown-Wyncote SEPTA station with the best scheduled service to Temple University, Philadelphia, 30th Street Station, the Drexel/UPENN campuses & even the airport without having to switch trains! There are numerous parks within close proximity as are all the various shops & restaurants in downtown Glenside, Jenkintown, Elkins Park & even Chestnut Hill is just a 15 minute drive.
