Property Description
MAJOR PRICE IMPROVEMENT! An exceptional opportunity in the heart of Jenkintown Borough! This handsome center hall Colonial has the space, character, natural light, and architectural foundation to be truly special. With many of the important infrastructure improvements already completed, a new owner can focus on the enjoyable part: cosmetic and design updates; furnishings, paint, lighting, and finishes that will completely transform the look and feel of the home without the expense of a major renovation. A lovely stone path leads to the front door, opening into a gracious center hall entry with generous 8-foot ceilings and hardwood floors flowing throughout the home. The living room and family room are just to the left, where a brick fireplace and built-ins create a warm, welcoming space. Two French doors bookend the fireplace and lead to a sun-filled sunroom. To the right of the entry, the dining room opens through French doors to a private screened porch, perfect for morning coffee or relaxed evening entertaining. The dining room continues into a spacious eat-in kitchen featuring Wood-Mode cabinetry, granite countertops, a professional gas range, and new flooring. From the kitchen, step outside to the newly renovated patio, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. Rounding out the first floor are a powder room, large entry hall closet, and a dedicated laundry/organizational room. With five bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, the home offers excellent natural light, comfortable room proportions, and a versatile floor plan with plenty of space for family, guests, work-from-home needs, or additional sitting areas. Outside, the home occupies a corner lot shaded by mature trees and includes a detached two-car garage recently upgraded with a new electrical panel capable of supporting charging for two electric vehicles, a valuable and increasingly sought-after convenience. Important improvements include new air conditioning, windows, garage door, lighting, storm doors, and the renovated patio, while the large basement and attic provide abundant additional storage. Ideally located near Jenkintown Schools, the Jenkintown and Noble train stations, the Boroughs shopping and dining district, the Hiway Theatre, and the historic Jenkintown Library, this home offers the charm and convenience of one of the areas most walkable communities.
