About This Home

As of June 2018

Truly the best of both worlds! This completely renovated 3 story single family home has all the benefits of new construction, along with all the charm of a 1910 Dutch Colonial. This 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath house was redone top to bottom, including new plumbing, new electric and HVAC, new roof, new windows, fresh paint, brand new hand scraped hardwood floors and a carpeted second and third floor. Enjoy the abundance of space as you walk through your finished front porch and into your breathtaking completely open concept first floor. The kitchen will be your new favorite room with a custom design, stainless steel appliances, double oven, double dishwasher, 2 sinks, solid wood cabinets, and high-end granite countertops. Walking through your spacious dining room area, you enter your you beautiful first-floor family room with newly refaced wood burning fireplace that will be great for those cold nights at home. Finally, the first-floor powder room will wow your guests, with a custom wood countertop and backsplash. Head upstairs to find a full hall bathroom and 5 spacious bedrooms that includes the master suite you always dreamed of. The walk-in master closet has a custom build and design, and the master bathroom boasts a large double vanity, freestanding soaker tub, and a shower deserving of the cover of a magazine. You can also enjoy the home from the outside with the ample curb appeal, a beautiful well-sized backyard, and detached single car garage. All of this conveniently located in the heart of Bala Cynwyd with award-winning schools, nearby train station, restaurants, and a short commute to the city. Don't settle for a house with numerous projects, move right into another beautifully done HouseItLook property! Be sure to check out included virtual tour!
