About This Home

As of August 2024

Sought after property in Mercer Hill Village, with an addition of a two bedroom 1 bath in-law suite, make this suited to many uses! Enter to main floor with neutral color living room, dining room, and kitchen. A few steps upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms and a full hall bathroom. The primary bedroom is a good size with walk in closet and attached full bathroom. The lower level cozy family room has a 3 year new Blaze King wood burning stove (plenty of stacked wood in the rear to get you started!) Off the family room, towards the front of the home, is access to the two car garage and in addition, access to another lower level space. Tons of storage space and your HVAC are housed here. Bonus, a whole house Generac Generator (that has been completely refurbished and is practically new) for back up during those crazy storms that occasionally occur. Off the rear of the home, just off the Family Room is a lovely breezeway connecting to the two bedrooms and one full bath. This section of the home, could serve as a private in law suite. In the closet there is water hookup for a potential sink and additional electric. Lovingly cared for rear yard. Zoned air conditioning. 11 year old roof. Boiler and hot water heater both less than 2 years old. Shed for additional storage. Hardwood floors under the second floor carpet. Enjoy the town of Ambler. Close to Wissahickon Watershed, Routes 276, 476, 309 and Septa Rail. Here it is, make an appointment today!
