BRIGHT, CHEERY, WELCOMING and COZY are just a few words to describe this renovated solid brick open concept cape situated across the street from H. Carroll Brook Park. An added bonus to this home is the detached 2-car garage with an upstairs loft consisting of 888 sq. ft. of space. Perfect for a workshop, rental space, in-law suite - the possibilities are endless. As you enter the main level from the front porch you will appreciate all the upgrades including: open concept, engineered hardwood floors, gas fireplace with custom built-ins, bar height kitchen peninsula and all new windows (throughout the entire house). The retro kitchen cabinets have been repainted (inside & out) and the hardware has been replaced. The second floor includes two guest rooms with fresh paint and new all to wall carpeting, In 2019, the primary bedroom suite (also on the second floor) was renovated. The two small dormers are blown out and replaced with one large barn dormer. This added square footage and made space for the huge custom walk-in primary closet and expanded and completely renovated bathroom. While the roof was opened a new AC system was installed in the attic and the duct work was replaced. Other improvements include: tin roof and wood beams above the front porch, downstairs bathroom completely redone, 3 new garage doors installed, overgrown trees taken down out back and beautiful sod laid, fence replaced down the left side of the property and a new roof was put on in 2022 on both the house and the detached garage. The basement floor and walls were just repainted and are ready to made into additional living space for the new homeowner! And if all this doesn't sound fantastic- the nearby amenities include: H. Carroll Brooke Park ( across the street), North Hill train station (. 4 miles), North Hills Country Club (. 6 miles), Pizza Box, Jerzees, Union Jack's and Wawa (around the corner) and quaint Keswick Village (only 1.3 miles). Also, 309 and the PA Turnpike are only 3 miles away.
