20 E Waverly Rd Glenside, PA 19038

Looking for a dense neighborhood feel without actually having to live in the city? Looking for restaurants, independently owned shops and fantastic live music and cultural events? Welcome to Glenside; one of the best places to live in Pennsylvania! If you like parks and farmers markets we have them too. The Glenside Septa train station is less than a ten minute walk away. This 100+ year old house is a treasure. So much of the original detail remains. Beautiful stone exterior, thick six panel wood doors with glass doorknobs, wood floors underneath carpet, wide windowsills and large sunny windows (most have been replaced) 9+ ft ceilings, and six genuinely large bedrooms. Unusual for a property of this age is the amazing amount of closet space. These are not tiny little Victorian closets - these closets have depth and breadth and in some cases there are more than one to a bedroom! Another unusual feature is the two car garage and driveway parking. The driveway is shared with the next door neighbor but nonetheless, off street parking being a premium in these parts, you have room for multiple cars. There is also a side deck overlooking a completely fenced in yard. Inside, through a vestibule entry, is a living room with a lovely corner fireplace with gas insert. The living room is open to a formal dining room and then on to the kitchen with expansive cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and built in pantry cupboard. There is plenty of room for a center island. A winding rear staircase to the second floor rear allows for entry from the garage straight upstairs without waking the whole house. There are also stairs leading to the full basement which is great for storage. A laundry room, half bath and mudroom/pantry complete the main floor. On the second floor are three sizeable bedrooms and the full bath. Behind a door is the staircase to the third floor and three more bedrooms. The largest of all the bedrooms is in the front and this could make a terrific master suite as well. This room is plumbed for a second full bath. Beautiful vintage craftsmanship, modern convenience and a fabulous location combine for a great opportunity to purchase a property that has been in the same family for generations! You can put down roots and be the steward of this home's legacy, creating memories for the future.
