About This Home
A brand new listing has entered the Drexel Hill market! You gotta come visit! This 4 BR, 1 1/2 bath Dutch Colonial, with maintenance-free exterior, sits on a street with all sorts of single home styles, and comes with lots of amenities! The CA system is a real plus! The radiators have covers... some with side shelves. Some of the doors have crystal knobs. What is typically a front porch has been turned into a vestibule entry w/a lead glass door, new LVP flooring & a wide coat closet, as well as a bonus room with a stone wall flanked by BI wood shelves for your books and prized possessions, a stained picture window that looks out to the well landscaped front yard (flowering birch ,cherry trees & azaleas), cast iron baseboard heat and carpeting. It could be an office, den, playroom or exercise space. You choose! Step into the LR, complete with a pointed, stone, gas fireplace w/keystone, a remote and is trimmed in a granite surround and wood mantel. There are turned steps here to the 2nd floor that go hand in hand with a similar set from the kitchen. The neutrally-painted, expansive DR will be great for entertaining. The dimmer switch will control the mood! It shows off new sconces, a casement back window, and a double side window. Check out the brand new ceiling fixture! In the kitchen you will find black and stainless appliances ( the fridge has an ice-maker), DW, microwave, double sink, new LVP floors, beveled granite c/tops, a CF and a tile backsplash. There's a breakfast nook just off the kitchen ,complete with a large window, a BI high top table with wine rack, stools and light fixture. The wood pantry and cabinets could easily be painted to give it your decorative spin. The steel door leading to the back yard boasts BI blinds. On the way to the lower level is an open pantry for extra foodstuffs. The basement area is finished for a rec room or playroom. It comes with a pellet stove, recessed lights, a lighted closet, a laundry room (W/D), and a powder room with vanity sink and oak mirror. Notice the exit steps to Bilco doors that lead to the private, fenced back yard. Summer living is easy in the back yard complete with a brick patio and cloth awning overhead w/lights put up for evening relaxation for friends & family gatherings. There is a pavered section too...and a spotlight regulated from a switch in one of the BR's. The Rubbermaid shed will be handy for storage. The one car, detached garage, w/siding to match the house, two windows and a white door sits at the end of the long, private driveway. Back inside, on the 2nd floor, are four good-sized bedrooms and a full bath. The BR's are all equipped with ceiling fans, wall-to-wall carpeting and good closet space. The light & bright, updated hall bath comes with grey and white tile walls and flooring, a tub/shower, a Kohler toilet and a white vanity sink flanked by extra formica counter space. The pine steps to the unfinished attic originate in the hallway. There is lots of room for storage here, and it has the potential to be finished. Part of the CA system can be found here. The linen closet is in the hallway too. The location on #738 puts it quite close to many schools, eateries, shops and a local baseball field. There are 3 large grocery stores just a short drive away...Giant, Shop-Rite and Acme.! Bus routes run along nearby State Rd, and the trolley will take you to where you can get to 69th St to board transportation to Villanova or Center City, as well as to Media to do some strolling, shopping & 'Dining under the Stars' on Wednesday evenings --so much easier than trying to find parking! Upper Darby performing Arts has lots of musical shows and theater to attend, and the newly renovated Lansdowne Theater, just a quick drive away, brings lots of big name entertainment to the area! The sellers are offering the lucky buyer(s) a FREE ONE YEAR HOME WARRANTY! How great is that? So...make a visit soon and check out all the amenities of #738 Foss Avenue soon!
