About This Home

As of April 2022

Hello. My wife & I have decided to sell our house in Glenside. We moved out of state two years ago, but held on to the property as a rental. We love this house and the neighborhood is amazing. 228 Berkeley road has three bedrooms & two baths. The upstairs bathroom is a shower/tub combo and the downstairs has a shower only. All three bedrooms are upstairs. One of the three is a larger, master bedroom that faces the street. The backyard is quite large, completely fenced in, & has two entry/exit gates. The backyard also has a shed where we kept the lawnmower and other items for the garden. It's a beautiful space with giant, mature trees and multiple flowering plants that we added. A deck and screened in porch (that we completely rebuilt in 2016) overlooks the backyard. The kitchen is L-shaped, and has a super cute nook for a breakfast table or sitting area. The fridge is older, but the range and dishwasher were all brand new in 2015. There are two common areas that are adorable. The front area has a large bay window that overlooks the street and a working fireplace. Built in bookshelves add a lot of charm. The living/TV room in the back has windows that overlook the deck and a huge bay window that overlooks the backyard. It can be pretty magical to sit in there and look at the leaves in fall, the snow in winter, or the flowering plants in the warmer months. The basement is what I would consider 'half finished'. We tore out all the carpet when we bought the house and put down a high-sheen concrete paint. We also sealed the walls with dry-lock extreme to eliminate dust and keep most of the groundwater out. We replaced the furnace in 2016 and hot water heater in early 2022. The air conditioning unit is older but works fine. The garage is extra deep and would allow you to park a car + have additional storage. I can't say enough about the neighborhood and people who live there. The neighbors are very friendly. The Glenside train station is an 8-10 minute walk away and Primex, a well-stocked local garden center, is a 5 minute walk. We have tenants living in the house and their lease does not end until June 30th 2022. They want to stay until their lease ends.
