About This Home

As of June 2021

Searching for a unique property? This home offers the most amazing back yard which slopes down through the trees. The view from the kitchen, the dining room and the sun room are inviting and bring in the outdoors. Let's talk opportunity... Plenty of parking for 3 cars plus a garage. The basement was utilized for a Home Occupation with an Abington Township Business License. There was plenty of room for desks, shelving, phone lines, powder room, separately zoned heating, 80 gallon electric hot water heater and an outside entrance/exit. It's also all about the location. This wonderful home is just a quick walk to the elementary school, Abington Hospital and a short drive to the Willow Grove Park Mall, Target Shopping Center, Abington Pharmacy, Corner Bakery, Kitchen Bar, as well as both Crestmont and Roslyn train stations. If you're not on the move then sit back and relax with a glass of wine or a cup of coffee on the deck or in the sun room and listen to the melody of the birds on the beautiful terraced and treed back yard. You will be just a few blocks from the Briar Bush Nature Center. This home features 3 spacious bedrooms with the possibility of expansion to 4 and 1 full and 2 half baths. Lots of storage and closet space on the second floor. The first floor features a bright living and dining room. The wood burning fireplace currently has an electrical insert which does provide heat. Everyone can gather around the kitchen and help cook. The sun room off the kitchen is one of the coziest rooms of the house especially for anyone with a green thumb. The lower level is finished with a powder room and lots of room for entertaining, a game room, quilting or any of your creative endeavors. It could be the perfect "Man Cave" with room for a workshop adjacent to the laundry area and an exit to the lower level patio. This is the perfect place to enjoy the great outdoors, the wildlife and the incredible sounds of the birds chirping. The sloping back yard offers plenty of levels for outdoor dining and entertainment. It's just the perfect time to let your imagination run wild. Gas is available in the area. This has been a very "Happy Home".
