About This Home
As of March 2018Location, Location, Location! It doesn't get more convenient than this Ridley Twin, without sacrificing a peaceful residential setting, with a quiet fenced backyard. Parks, playgrounds, shopping and restaurants are all just minutes away! And with the Blue Route and I-95 nearby, Philly and Wilmington are just a quick 15 minute drive. A lengthy setback from the street provides a large front yard and long shared driveway. Inside, you'll be delighted to see the floorplan is different than others in the neighborhood, boasting an "open kitchen" concept; the wall was removed to expand the original galley kitchen, creating an open floorplan and much better use of space! You will love to entertain in this "hub" of the home that leads directly to the level, fenced rear yard! The kitchen has newer cabinets, appliances, a double sink, and flows nicely to the backyard for grilling and entertaining! A large picture window in the living room lets the natural light shine in. Hardwood style flooring throughout the main level makes for a clean, streamlined "look." You'll also appreciate a powder room on the main level for added convenience. Upstairs, an extra spacious master bedroom provides a private retreat and a very spacious master closet. A remodeled hall bathroom offers wainscot, tasteful ceramic tile floor and newer vanity. A large linen closet completes the upper level. Enjoy updates including new carpeting on the stairs and upper level (to be installed in late January-same color), fresh paint, new back exterior door (late Jan) and basement exterior door (2018), newer interior doors (2017/18), and newer downstairs windows (2016, include a LIFETIME GUARANTEE from Home Depot!). The basement is unfinished (but offers a walk out feature, so finish, if you choose!), so it offers all the storage you could possibly need, and a laundry room! 727 Fairview has been lovingly maintained and updated throughout the years, and is just waiting for its new owner! Grace Park Elementary School, too! Don't miss this Ridley gem!
