This home is beautiful, well-kept and up to date. It’s perfect for a first-time buyer or someone wanting to transition to one-floor living. The current owners added a garage in the rear. The finished basement adds additional living space. It has a lovely patio off the kitchen for summer entertaining, barbeques and enjoying tranquil evenings. The washer, dryer and refrigerator are all included. Broomall is one of the BEST places to buy a home for SO many reasons. It has a wonderful library, and an award-winning school district with land for room to play. There are excellent educational and sports programs offered by the school district. Local shopping, less than 2 miles westward, includes Whole Foods, Acme, and THE best place to shop for fruit and vegetables for many miles is Gentile’s Market. If you shop at Gentiles often enough, you will get to know the whole family (say hi to Bobby)! The Whole Foods shopping Center includes local restaurants such as LaScala’s Fire, Cava, First Watch. The Edgmont shopping center has a Regal Movie Theatre less than four miles away, and there you will also find a Giant Supermarket, PJ Wellihan’s and the Rey Azteca Mexican food restaurant. The Marple Crossing shopping center has an AMC Theatre, Marshalls and Walmart. The Lawrence Park Shopping Center has a Barnes and Noble, Home Goods, TJ Max, Panera, Five-Guys, PJ Wellihan’s, Home Depot and an Acme super market. Northward, if you want to dine on the Main Line, it’s less than 6 miles. The Wayne Farmer’s Market is about 6 miles away. Southward in Media, the farmer’s market, Dining Under the Stars, the Media Performing Arts Theatre and Trader Joe’s is less than 6 miles. It is perfectly situated for travel: there are four Septa bus lines one block away, the Blue Route (476) entrance is less than 2 miles away; Center City and Philadelphia night life is about 13 miles; Wilmington is about a half hour; King of Prussia is about 20 minutes. Philadelphia is known for its world class Educational Institutions, Hospitals, Pharmaceutical companies, and probably 15 to 20 colleges within a 20-mile radius—this adds to employment opportunity and economic stability. No matter what you want in life, you can find the best of everything in Broomall or not far away.
