About This Home
As of October 2015Talk about LOCATION! Ideally situated on 3/4 of an acre in Blue Bell's bucolic rolling hills of Mt. Pleasant, this stately stone & stucco 4 bdrm, 2-1/2 bath colonial has much to offer. Walk through the front door into the entry foyer with warm 3/4" tongue-in-groove hardwood floors that flow right through the office, living room with stone fireplace and formal dining room. Step through to the sun-filled kitchen with large bay window overlooking the back yard. The familyroom, with another stone fireplace, has access to the patio and the laundry area/mudroom. Enjoy the tranquility of the country, yet be within walking distance of the quaint shops, restaurants & pubs, and entertainment venues of downtown Ambler. Additionally, SEPTA's Regional Rail Ambler station is conveniently located 1 mile away. Enjoy an invigorating hike or bike ride along the nearby Wissahickon Green Ribbon Trail. This solidly built Westrum home, on beautiful grounds, in a great established community, is a rare find. This home is in need of some updating, and your decorator's touch... the house is priced accordingly.
