Property Description
At the corner of two lightly traveled side streets, you will find this delightful 3-story stucco Colonial, built in 1915 and completely remodeled in 2015. Tucked away from the crowds, yet within easy walking distance to everything that Elkins Park has to offer, this 2,600+ SF home is immaculate. A winding brick & bluestone pathway leads up to the front door, passing a huge Magnolia tree and other mature flowering trees. The covered entry provides protection from the elements & a custom, solid-wood storm door (that matches the storm doors on the 2 sets of French doors to the covered side porch) is a delightful touch. Enter the center hall, and there are two coat closets flanking the entry. The entire hall & kitchen has been re-finished in wood patterned porcelain floors. The full-depth living room has built-in storage cabinets, a wood burning fireplace and access to the side porch. The entire kitchen & dining room have been opened to each other. The entire kitchen was renovated in 2015, with recycled barn beams, exposed brick, granite counters, S/S appliances & bead-board white cabinets. A lovely mudroom was incorporated into the rear of the kitchen that provides direct access to the fully fenced rear & side yards, brick patio (with an outdoor fireplace, built-in BBQ & a large storage shed built onto the rear of the garage). The powder room is tucked at the end of the center hall. On the landing, there is a bank of casement windows that provide a lovely view of the rear yard. On the 2nd floor, there is a guest bedroom & a hall bathroom. The 2nd guest bedroom was converted to a 2nd floor laundry (and is large enough to use as a great home office area). The master suite was completely remodeled, with a brand new en-suite bathroom (with a barn door) and a huge walk-in closet with a unique, custom closet system made from pipe fittings! On the 3rd floor, you will find a sitting/family area over the central hallway (with a storage closet), the 3rd and the 4th bedrooms (one with those delightful -round windows and 2 closets). The 2-car garage also has a pull-down staircase to access the attic for additional storage. The entire house (all 3 floors) had central A/C installed in 2015 with 2 systems. A portion of the basement (where the laundry used to be located) was converted to a wood shop and significant lighting added. It is also located just 5 blocks away from CreekSide Coop and the E. P. train station & library.
