Property Description
Inside and out, 745 Preston Avenue is a modern cottage with 2 car garage that has all the charm you could hope for, and all the upgrades you could need. Over $50K has been spent on modernizing the home, including all new light fixtures and ceiling fans, custom blinds throughout, washer and dryer, mini-split heat and A/C in the finished basement, high-efficiency central heat, tankless hot water heater, 200 amp electric service, full attic spray insulation, front porch posts, garage roof and even access to gig-speed internet for working from home. Truly, no expense has been spared in making this home the quiet, relaxing retreat it is intended to be. When you step inside from the covered porch, the spacious living room greets you with lots of light, beautiful hardwoods and plenty of space for family and friends. The dining room features a large entry, crown moulding and the same open, airy floor plan. And the kitchen is an entertaining space unto itself, boasting plenty of room for additional seating, along with stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop, granite countertops, recessed lighting and access to the back patio. Outside, a fully-landscaped exterior, fenced-in yard, full-length private driveway and detached two-car garage make up the perfect outdoor space. Upstairs, a large landing and hardwood floors lead to three generous bedrooms and one renovated full bath. Overlooking the backyard, the primary bedroom is greeted by the morning sun and features a large closet. The second bedroom is the perfect nursery or office space. The full bathroom features penny and subway tiles, along with beadboard moulding and, yes, unlimited hot water. And the third bedroom is bright and cheery with ample room for kids, visitors or even an office. Downstairs, the finished basement is perhaps the best surprise 745 Preston Avenue has to offer. Perfect as a second living space, playroom or even a bonus guest room, it features a half bathroom, recessed lighting, separate heat and A/C, along with access to laundry and ample storage. This room is truly the extra square footage you will be hoping for in this price range. And finally, out the front door is the Main Line at your beck and call. Sitting steps from Preston Park and the Polo Fields, you are also a walk away from downtown Bryn Mawr and all its restaurants and shops, the serene walking trail at Haverford College, lattes at Green Engine Coffee, to-go cocktails at The White Dog Cafe and both the Bryn Mawr and Haverford regional SEPTA stops. In our current market, 745 Preston Avenue is a truly one-of-a-kind location and investment, along with easy commuter access to both Center City and the Blue Route.
