Available for the first time in more than 60 years, this classic 1928 Colonial is a home you must see in person to fully appreciate. Located in desirable Old Wyncote, the home is perfectly situated along the curve on scenic Hewett Road, directly across from Thomas Williams Park. 141 Hewett has many original features that make this home a timeless beauty, from the spherical gable roof over the front entrance way, to the gorgeous oak floors that extend throughout the home's three levels. As you enter, you step into the spacious center hall, with the bright and welcoming living room to the right. There's a gas fireplace with brick surround, a large picture window overlooking the lush and private backyard and a mid-century built-in desk with shelving. The side porch has been fully enclosed with windows on three sides and can serve as a den, office or a peaceful spot to soak in the sunshine. A rear door provides access to the elevated back porch that sits above the attached garage. The formal dining room offers plenty of space for large dinner parties. The kitchen consists of mid-century flat panel wood cabinets, pantry cabinet, a built-in desk, under-mounted sink, gas range and a built-in eat in breakfast table positioned under a large picture window offering excellent views as you sip your morning coffee. A door from the kitchen leads to the back porch, making cookouts a breeze. A powder room under the stairs completes the main level.
The second level has three bedrooms, two of which share a Jack & Jill bathroom. The large primary bedroom extends the depth of the house, has two closets, windows on three sides and an updated en-suite bathroom with shower stall. The third floor consists of two bedrooms with built-in cabinets, drawers and desk and a third full bathroom. The finished walk-out basement provides additional living space for a rec room or media room as well as a workshop and laundry. The driveway leads around the rear of the property, and directly into the rear-entrance two -car garage. The backyard, currently covered with low-growing plants, is extremely easy to maintain. Need more space to play and enjoy the outdoors? Walk across the road to the 9 acre park where you'll find four tennis courts, full outdoor basketball court, playground, tot-lot play area, one softball field converted for soccer, and covered pavilion. Half mile from the Jenkintown-Wyncote regional rail station (with multiple lines into Center City) and easy access to Route 309 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Conveniently located within minutes of excellent shops and restaurants in Keswick Village, Glenside, Jenkintown and Chestnut Hill.
