About This Home

As of February 2025

PLEASE PUT IN YOUR BEST AND FINAL OFFER TODAY, MONDAY, 12/23/24 BY 5:00 PM! Welcome to this beautifully updated twin home, nestled in one of the most peaceful and convenient neighborhoods. Ideally located just minutes from public transit, the commuter train, Philadelphia International Airport, and major highways, this home offers unbeatable access for work or travel. Set on a generous 2,625-square-foot lot, the property boasts a charming front and rear yard, along with a spacious three-car garage.
As you enter, you’re greeted by a lovely covered porch with tile floor, large windows, and recessed lighting. Step inside through a second door into the expansive living and dining area, where you'll find gleaming hardwood floors, high ceilings, and plenty of windows. There is an abundance of natural light.
At the back of the home, the chef-inspired kitchen awaits. Featuring a large island, ample cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a stunning tile backsplash, this kitchen is perfect for both daily meals and entertaining. A convenient switch-operated exhaust fan vents cooking odors directly outside. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find a newly updated powder room.
Step outside through the back door to discover your private, fenced-in patio—ideal for summer cookouts or a morning cup of coffee. And don't miss the rooftop of your enormous three-car garage, offering a beautiful view of the surrounding area. The garage itself is remote-operated and has its own entry door from the patio, providing both privacy and convenience.
Upstairs, the home features three generously sized bedrooms, each with excellent closet space, and two fully renovated bathrooms. The primary suite includes its own en-suite bath and gorgeous hardwood floors. The hallway bathroom is complete with a shower/tub combo and a skylight, bringing in even more natural light and fresh air.
The finished basement adds even more living space, featuring a versatile bedroom or recreation room, a full bathroom, a brand-new HVAC system, laundry facilities, and abundant storage options.
This home combines modern updates with fantastic location and value. It truly won’t last long—don’t miss your chance to make it yours!
