About This Home

As of May 2024

Welcome to 856 Skippack Pike, in the heart of Blue Bell, within the award winning Wissahickon school district. This wonderful 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath split level home has been completely renovated to include all major systems; hvac, windows, roof, and electric, plus a total interior renovation. Enter this stunning property through an electronic gate onto the recently expanded driveway. Upon entering the home, walk from the portico/mudroom addition and into the newly redesigned main floor level. Walls were removed to create an open area living concept. On this level you will enjoy the spacious chef’s kitchen which opens to a generous family room and dining room area.The floors are radiant heated tile to look like wood. Walk through the newly created doorway from the family room to the new gorgeous deck. Upstairs on the second level are three renovated bedrooms with new wide plank hardwood flooring on the entire level, and two beautifully renovated bathrooms each with a heated bidet toilet and wonderful shower. Walk one more level up where the roof was raised to create a dreamy owner's suite featuring wide plank hardwood flooring and a Juliette balcony and great closet spaces. Finally, enjoy a luxurious bathroom with a heated bidet toilet, a gorgeous shower with many spigots and a rain shower plus a soaking tub. Downstairs to the lower level enjoy the large family room with access to the backyard and the two car garage. Down one more level to the wonderful basement with a wet bar and laundry.
Once outside enjoy a flat and quite large yard to include a backyard, side yard and front yard with beautiful fruit trees and a vegetable garden with raised beds. There is a brick pizza oven and two sheds, one which is very large with a garage door. The property is fully fenced to protect your puppies!
With no carpeting throughout, custom solid wood doors, and an abundance of natural light, this home exudes warmth and sophistication. Your new sanctuary awaits!
