About This Home

As of August 2021

Get ready to fall in love with this rarely offered 4-bedroom 3.5 bath split-level Colonial-style home in the coveted Militia Hill neighborhood in Fort Washington, Whitemarsh township. The current owner has been here for the past 38 years and has lovingly maintained, updated, and expanded to perfection and has everything you could hope for or dream of. The first floor features a large entry foyer area with a convenient coat closet and a spacious and sunny formal living room with hardwood flooring, a gorgeous fireplace with a handsome wood mantle, and stylish and on-trend wood paneling. Adjacent to the living room, separated by an equally stylish wood beam, is a sizeable dining room with access to both the kitchen and the magical screened in porch area that will surely become the place where you spend most of your time. It’s the perfect spot to sit back and relax with a book, your morning coffee, or an after-dinner cocktail. It’s even roomy enough for a dining table for covered al fresco dining, and let’s not forget to mention the wonderful views of the lovely, landscaped back yard area offering mature plants and trees and unmatched privacy. The pretty eat-in kitchen features the same hardwood flooring as the rest of the first floor, a built-in desk area, classic white cabinetry with plenty of storage, black granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a window over the sink with a fantastic view of the lush greenery in the back yard. Just a few steps down from the kitchen is the spacious den area featuring a beautiful brick fireplace, a powder room, and access to the side entrance and mudroom area featuring a large closet and slate, stone flooring. To the other side of the mudroom is the spectacularly large, bright, and cheery family room area thanks to the abundance of windows this room offers. The possibilities for this space are endless. It has room enough to entertain, relax, and work out. It will surely be tied with the screened-in porch for the room that gets the most use. This level of the home also offers a large laundry room with ceramic tile flooring, clever cubicle-style storage, more closets, and access to the attached garage. The second floor is home to 3 large bedrooms, all with plenty of closet space. Two of those bedrooms share an updated hall bathroom with a tub/shower combo while the other bedroom features a lovely en suite bathroom with a stall shower. The third floor features a gorgeous primary bedroom suite with a luxurious en suite bathroom with a large, jetted tub, a glass-enclosed shower, a dual vanity, and a large linen closet. Just steps away is a fantastic custom, walk-in closet for all of your organizational needs. The sleeping and sitting areas of the bedroom suite provide a serene escape from the worries of the day and offers great views of the front and back yard areas. There is also a large attic a few steps away from the third-floor primary bedroom and a second pull-down attic area to satisfy all of your storage needs. Now let’s talk about the location. The yard is spectacular and backs up to Fort Washington State Park for additional privacy and incredible views! Just imagine nightly strolls and bike rides through this gem of a neighborhood located a steps away from Fort Washington State Park and a short drive to the Wissahickon and major roadways like the Turnpike and routes 309 and 476. Be sure to enjoy all the wonderful dining and shopping options in nearby Chestnut Hill, Ambler, Conshohocken, Plymouth Meeting, and Lafayette Hill. You love to golf you say? You’re in luck. This home is a stone’s throw from several prestigious golf courses, too. Don’t miss your opportunity to call this home your own and enjoy all that it has to offer!
