The Yellow House at 6525 Brighton Road, one of the earliest Ben Avon builds, makes 1898 feel young again. Featured in the 2019 Ben Avon House Tour, this 6BR, 2Bath home recently underwent thoughtful improvements, seen in the refinished 120-year hardwood floors, the marble countertop & farmhouse kitchen, and exterior restorations. A spacious entryway leads you through original pocket doors, to the fireplace in the family room & a second set of pocket doors, which connect to the Dining Room with its own fireplace & nearly 10ft ceilings. Off the Dining Room is the fully renovated kitchen & 1st FL full bath. The 2nd FL features four large bedrooms, a completely redone bathroom with wainscoting, and conveniently placed laundry. The house goes on to the 3rd FL, for BR5 & BR6, which could be used as an office or guest space. Large auxiliary rooms have been rehabbed as reading rooms & play areas. A cozy backyard patio & an expansive front porch provide even more space at this Ben Avon beauty.
