About This Home

As of December 2021

Welcome to the Melrose Park Gardens section of Upper Olney/East Oak lane. Just on the borderline of Philly and Cheltenham Township with shopping within walking distance. This home is priced well below market and ready for cosmetic TLC. Needs some paint and finishes to make this a show stopper. Deep front lawn and patio lead into a large living room with tons of natural lighting through the bay window and a formal dining room..both with original hardwood flooring. The kitchen boasts lots of wood cabinets and space for a table to enjoy your morning coffee. The lower level basement just needs flooring to make a great man (or woman) cave and there's also a powder room that would have to be revamped as it is not currently functional. There's a separate laundry room with exit to rear driveway and a built-in garage. The upper level consists of a large main bedroom with three closets plus two other bedrooms and a hall bathroom. Mostly replacement windows throughout, new hot water heater. Sold in as is condition. Hurry and grab this one!!!
