Classic Upper Roxborough twin hitting the market for the first time in 49 years! The solid construction is evident. .. no squeaks or creaks as you walk from room to room or up and down stairs. The main side entry brings you right into the heart of the home, and right in front of the perfectly place coat closet. The comfortable sized living room has a faux fireplace and a three side-by-side double-hung windows to bring in the light from the back yard. The dining room is roomy enough to easily seat eight as well as accommodate formal furnishings such as a hutch and buffet. The eat-in kitchen has white cabinetry with 30 handles, tile backsplash, gas cooking, sprayer hose faucet, dishwasher, ceiling exhaust fan to the outside, and a bow window perfect for growing herbs or nurturing seedlings. Tucked away above the stairs to the lower level is a powder room and additional closet. The top floor is home to 3 nice size bedrooms with roomy closets, the full bath (with retro floor tiles you may consider working into your new design), a linen closet, and a cedar closet for storing off-season wear. The lower level has a finished family room/den with a brick hearth & flue that would be perfect for showcasing a wood/pellet/gas stove(gas line is just 5' away), and has access to the back patio and private back yard. The wide hall leading to the front driveway houses the laundry(dryer and new washer included) and mechanicals(gas heat/hot water, central air). There is one car driveway parking and a one car built-in garage with inside access(currently boarded over). Conveniently located around the corner from the Roxborough YMCA, Target, Shop-Rite, Andorra Shopping Center, and just across Henry Ave from Wissahickon Valley Park. This lovingly tended-to home is priced to reflect any needed or preferred updates the newer buyer may want to perform.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
