1712 Somerset St Dresher, PA 19025

Welcome to Dawesfield, a prestigious community in the award-winning Upper Dublin School District, known for its large lots, beautiful homes and friendly neighbors. 1712 Somerset Street stands out in this community for its impressive curb appeal with professional landscaping that complements the handsome stone/stucco facade, standing against a backdrop of mature trees. It's obvious the love the owners have given this home over the past 30 years as no detail has been forgotten.
Tending to the yard is made easy thanks to the underground irrigation system. As you approach the home you'll notice the new driveway and paver walkway leading to the front door. Upon entering, you step into the foyer, complete with hardwood floors and an L-shaped staircase leading to the second level. To the left is the formal living room and to the right, the impressive dining room with gorgeous floral wallpaper, wainscoting, new carpet and new chandelier.
The dining room leads into the bright and airy eat-in kitchen where timeless Cherry cabinetry contrasts perfectly with the white tile backsplash. The large center island offers additional meal prep space as well as room to pull up a stool to eat. You'll never run out of room in the kitchen thanks to the nice-sized pantry and built-in hutch and desk. There's also a garbage disposal, wine cooler, subzero refrigerator and built-in microwave. Even with the island there is still plenty of room for a kitchen table. Beyond the table, French doors lead directly to the rear paver patio that has been upgraded with raised flower beds that double as bench seating. It's a perfect spot to relax with a coffee in the morning, grill in the evening, gather around the fire pit at night or just sit and watch the birds, deer and occasional fox roam the large, private and level backyard.
Back inside, the kitchen is completely open to the spacious family room. When the owners customized the
floor plan of this home, they added twelve additional feet to the back of the house, allowing for a larger family room, bedrooms and kitchen. Built-in cabinets house the electronics for the whole house and outdoor patio sound system. You can enjoy a theater-style surround sound movie, or relax in front of a
warm fire with a glass of wine. Built-in window seats provide extra storage. An updated powder room, laundry room, three coat closets and interior access to the side-entrance 2.5 car garage complete the first level.
The finished basement provides another sanctuary for retreat with a dry bar, mini-fridge and microwave. The opportunities are endless here. The space is large enough to use as both an adult and kid-friendly area or turn it into a gym, recreation room or additional family room. There is closet space, a craft room and powder room for convenience. On the second level, you'll find four large bedrooms and a home office, situated above the foyer, with windows overlooking the front yard. A skylight illuminates the upstairs hallway. After a long day, you'll love escaping to your primary bedroom suite with new carpeting, ceiling fan, a new vanity studio, and large walk-in closet. The en-suite bathroom has been updated with a beautiful white double vanity, light fixture, plantation shutters, shower door, and toilet. Relax in the Jacuzzi with a bubble bath, the stereo on, and a glass of bubbly. Afterward, tell Alexa to turn on the gas fireplace and you can rest with the glow of a fire. The hall bathroom has also been updated with new flooring, new vanity and mirrors and new shower doors and fixtures. A door inside a bedroom closet offers access to storage space in the attic over the garage.

Conveniently located one mile from shops and restaurants (Promenade and Willow Grove Pointe) and parks. No buyer letters, please.
