Relocation for work has the current owners of 400 Hoover Road moving much sooner than they would have ever expected. They were thrilled to find this charming three bedroom, two full bath home in Wissahickon School District and quickly worked to make it their own. They added to the square footage almost immediately by creating a fantastic family room off of the kitchen. They are sad to leave their home, the neighborhood, and the fabulous restaurants in downtown Ambler, but their unexpected change is a fantastic opportunity for you. 400 Hoover Road is a cape cod style home, located in a quiet pocket of Lower Gwynedd Township, just 2 blocks from Lower Gwynedd Elementary, Wissahickon Middle, and High Schools. If you travel two blocks in the opposite direction, you will find a large park, walking trails, and the train station. The location is fantastic and the home is adorable, offering a beautifully renovated kitchen, hardwood flooring, two full baths, central air, a garage, and a fenced yard. Entering the home you will find a living room off to your right, featuring a wood-burning fireplace, large picture window, and beautiful hardwood floors. The hardwood continues through the first floor and into the adjacent formal dining room. The dining room is open to the kitchen, making for a great flow, particularly when entertaining. The kitchen is a show stopper with beautiful cabinetry offering tons of storage, granite countertops and custom butcher block countertop, subway tile backsplash, undermount sink, stainless steel dishwasher, spectacular commercial gas range and hood, Terrazzo flooring, and recessed lighting. Through the kitchen, you will find a spacious family room boasting its own zone for heating and air conditioning, recessed lighting, and abundant natural light. This room has an interior door that you can use to close it off from the rest of the house, which the current owners felt was a must-have with a newborn napping upstairs. A first-floor bedroom and full bathroom round out the first floor. Upstairs, the second floor offers two nicely sized bedrooms boasting all of the character that a cape style home affords. The hall bath has been nicely updated and offers a built-in storage area. There is ample closet space and additional storage in the eaves. Outside there is plenty of yard to enjoy and raised beds ready for your vegetable garden. The most private section of the yard is fully fenced, great for little ones and four-legged friends. The garage is quite spacious and there is a shed for additional storage, as well. Wissahickon Schools, within the boundaries of Lower Gwynedd Elementary, incredible taxes, and the proximity to the train and major routes of transportation make this a commuters dream. The wonderful restaurants, breweries, shops, and entertainment found in downtown Ambler are just a mile away. Ambler Yards featuring Feine Coffee, a weekly farmers' market, pop-up beer gardens, and more is just three blocks away. 400 Hoover Road is truly a great place to call home, come see for yourself!
