Welcome to 221 Mather Road in the sought-after Jenkintown Borough. This Victorian twin features 6 bedrooms, one full bath, and 2 half baths - one off the main floor mudroom and one on the 3rd floor. Thoughtfully maintained by the existing owner of nearly 30 years, the home features higher baseboards, large windows, and high ceilings typical of that era. Hardwood floors throughout. Entering the Chestnut-wood front door is a welcoming foyer with an arched entrance to the living room. Elegant, glass, sliding pocket doors separate the foyer from the dining room . The second level offers three bedrooms, front, middle, and rear, as well as a full bath with both soaking tub and stall shower. Linen closet in 2nd floor hallway. The third level offers three bedrooms, front, middle, and rear with a Cedar closet. The middle bedroom, features unpainted trim and is ideal as a Work From Home/ Office space for remote work. Lovely outdoor entertaining area begins with the front, wrap-around porch where a porch swing once hung (hooks remain) and provided years of enjoyment. The rear, low deck overlooks flower-filled, four-season gardens filled with daffodils, irises, and peonies. The spotlight of the back garden is the schist stone retaining walls with steps to upper terraced gardens. Washer/Dryer hook ups in the basement (used most recently) as well as a hook ups on main floor in the mudroom on the beadboard lined wall. The basement includes an outside entrance, built-in storage shelves, and a work table.
