About This Home
This classic brick-front and cedar shake Colonial is equal parts charming and spacious. The inviting front porch and white picket fence are just the beginning of the many features that make this property so special. Step from the expansive front porch into a welcoming foyer with beautiful newer wood floors that continue throughout the entire first floor. To the left is the living room, featuring elegant crown molding that flows into the formal dining room. The dining room is highlighted by three large windows, a beautiful tray ceiling, and an exit to the side porch. This room, currently used as a playroom, is ideal for family dinners and holiday gatherings. The updated kitchen will delight any home chef with its white cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. A door from the kitchen leads directly to the backyard, making indoor and outdoor entertaining effortless. The adjoining breakfast room is perfect for casual meals, while the coffee bar with a wine refrigerator adds both style and functionality for hosting guests. A convenient powder room completes the main level. The second floor offers three bedrooms with ceiling fans and stunning wood floors, along with a hall bath. The primary bedroom is generously sized and includes a large custom- closet. The two additional bedrooms provide ample closet space and are well suited for children, guests, or home offices. The hall bath has been recently updated with new tile in the tub area, new flooring, and modern fixtures. The full basement provides abundant storage as well as laundry and utility areas and includes an outside exit. The backyard is fully fenced and beautifully maintained. A lovely patio provides the perfect setting for barbecues and outdoor dining. The level yard is ideal for play, gardening, or a swing set. The oversized two-car garage is perfect for a car enthusiast or hobbyist, and there is plenty of off-street parking that can easily accommodate multiple cars. Recent improvements include a newer heater, central air, and a new hot water heater installed in 2022. This home is ideally located just minutes from downtown Ambler, where you can enjoy shopping, dining, and entertainment at the Ambler Theatre, local breweries, and farmers market. With easy access to the Ambler train station offering a direct ride to Center City Philadelphia, this location is perfect for commuters. The location within the desirable Wissahickon School District is the icing on the cake!
