The spacious front porch provides the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day, or catch up with neighbors. Inside, original hardwood floors, deep window sills, built-ins, and other classic details showcase the character of this 1935 home. The traditional center hall floor plan offers generous room sizes throughout, including a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room with a bay window, and a convenient den with built-in shelving and a newly installed sliding glass door creating easy access to the new patio.

The primary suite features access to a private rooftop deck along with an updated bath finished with a double vanity and Travertine tile floors and shower. One of the home's standout features is the renovated attic loft.

The finished lower level, anchored by a second stone fireplace, provides additional living space for movie nights, game days, workouts, or hobbies. There's additional unfinished space providing ample storage. Outside, you'll find plenty of space to enjoy the warmer months, whether you're hosting friends on the patio, firing up the grill, or playing or gardening in the level backyard. A detached two-car garage provides additional storage and convenience. Located close to from shopping, restaurants, parks, Jefferson Abington Hospital, the Jenkintown-Wyncote train station, and award-winning Abington public schools and Abington Friends School, this home offers the charm of an established neighborhood with easy access to the amenities that make everyday life easier.

BC
Business Center District
Accommodate a mix of sustainable, complimentary uses, to include retail, office, and community service (and with the exception of Willow Grove Park Mall, residential). Where residential is permitted, develop a greater range of housing choices and more interdependent, round-the-clock development centers. The primary component of the District is and will continue to be retail uses, which serves the needs of both local neighborhoods and the larger region. Retail uses should provide a range of compatible and interdependent business activities, and should include dining and entertainment uses. Create strong pedestrian and bicycle connections within the District and with surrounding areas. Enable attractive building design and streetscapes inside BC Business Center District developments and along the external street fronts of BC developments. Provide public open space areas for passive recreation and gathering. Permit an intensification of uses in appropriate locations. Encourage town-center style design, with attractive buildings, circulation systems, and green spaces. Require creation of civic spaces suitable for hosting public events and gatherings. Ensure adequate separation and buffering between BC Business Center District and adjacent single-family residential districts.
