Property Description
Why rent? It cost more to rent a two bedroom in this area than the monthly payments to buy this property. Nestled on a quiet street close to Chelten Avenue, 5687 Morton, a tasteful two bedroom abode, offers both the activity and convenience of Chelten Avenue, and the tree lined escape of Germantown East footsteps away. Central Air will greet you on a summer day, as you enter through the red door into the open concept first floor living area with a decorative fireplace with mantle. The wall finishes add the feel of quality with custom wall moulding, chair rails, and quarter round baseboard floor trim above the hardwood floors. Recessed light fixtures and newer windows add to the modern feel. Tucked in the kitchen are stainless steel appliances,stove, dishwasher and microwave, and recessed lights. Upstairs you are greeted by an oversized bathroom with double sinks in an extended, cosmetic ready, counter space, and a custom tiled shower enclosure. Bedrooms bookend the bath, each with ample closet space. The ground level basement could be utilized in creative ways, while the garage area could be used for car, bike, or additional storage. Washer and dryer hookups are in separated utility room. An End Row is not on the corner, yet gives you the benefit of one connected neighbor like a twin home, and a porch and fenced in front yard allow space to enjoy outdoors. This home is close to public transportation at Chelten Avenue and the regional rail at Germantown station a few blocks away. This is an wonderful place to become your first home for a smaller mortgage than the rent of an apartment.
