STUNNING inside and out is the best way to describe this delightful brick Colonial in sought-after Springfield Township School District. The covered front entryway full of character and charm is just the beginning of what this well-maintained home offers. As you step into the oversized Living Room, see yourself relaxing or entertaining in front of the brick wood-burning fireplace. The separate Dining Room w/ chair rail is conveniently located to the Eat-In-Kitchen. The Kitchen has 42" wood cabinets, plenty of counter space, newer GE appliances, including a built-in microwave, dishwasher, and five-burner gas range. The private home office (hobby room/playroom) w/ built-in bookshelves and adjacent Powder Room finish the first-floor space. The second floor features a spacious Owner's Bedroom w/ walk in custom closet, updated Bath w/ stall shower w/ tile floor/walls, and frameless glass door, newer sink/vanity w/ lots of storage space, and heated ceramic flooring. The hall bath has tub/shower w/ tile walls, sink/vanity, and ceramic tile flooring. Two additional Bedrooms are bright and airy w/ good closet space also featuring custom organizers. The basement is large enough to fully finish half the space to add to the overall square footage keeping the laundry, mechanicals, and storage separate. In addition, the basement has access to a covered walk-up leading to the backyard. The level back yard is manicured perfectly, with a natural tree line at the extent of the property, a variety of flowering bushes and perennials, and beautiful, meticulously maintained flower beds, another area of this property to be enjoyed! The two-car detached garage completes the outdoor space. Other notable features include a living room wired for surround sound, hardwood flooring throughout the house, high-efficiency gas heater and central air, newer direct vent water heater, whole-house surge protector, Honeywell alarm system w/ multi panels, and attic storage. Within walking distance to downtown Oreland. Conveniently located to schools, shopping, restaurants, train stations, Chestnut Hill/Center City, major roads including PA turnpike.
