Property Description
This charming stone colonial on a picturesque tree lined street has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully updated. A classic center hall greets you with gleaming hardwood floors. The foyer has a convenient first floor half bathroom and coat closet. Adjacent to the foyer is a spacious living room featuring a newly serviced gas fireplace with arched built-ins on either side, crown molding and recessed lighting. A breakfast bar connects seamlessly to the kitchen. Off the living room is a light filled enclosed, heated porch with a beautiful, exposed stone wall perfect for a home office or playroom. To the right of the foyer is the formal dining room with a large picture window and crown molding. A swinging door opens to the lovely, renovated kitchen with an eye-catching copper sink, granite counter tops, double ovens and plentiful cabinets. A breezeway off the kitchen connects you to the 1-car garage with electric door. Ascend the main stairwell and you will find the primary bedroom on the right with an en-suite bathroom and large walk-in closet. The hall bathroom underwent a modern update. Two additional bedrooms with large closets as well as a cedar closet complete this level. The basement is semi-finished and houses the laundry and features a newer hot water heater, 200-amp electric service and new sewer line. This home also features an updated chimney liner and prudently had the slate roof serviced every year. Pride of ownership shines inside and out. The fully fenced in yard with paver patios blooms beautifully in the Spring and Summer providing an outdoor oasis. The large, private driveway provides plenty of parking. This home is a short walk to the Melrose Park Train Station for the Warminster/West Trenton Lines. Easy access to Temple, 30 mintues to Center City & 45 minutes to the airport this home is a commuter's dream.
