The perfect home does exist. Come and swoon over this stately, stone Tudor single in the highly coveted Baederwood neighborhood. This 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom gorgeously updated home offers 3700+ square feet over two stories plus a walk up, semi finished attic and huge basement. Throughout the house you will find refinished or new flooring, custom modern windows, many with built in shades, and every space has either been tastefully updated, lovingly maintained, or both!
Be welcomed by the large well-groomed lawn and mature plantings followed by a new stone path with custom bench. Enter into the formal vestibule with coat closet and into the huge foyer, bright and welcoming. To your right you’ll find the elegant, spacious living room designed around a dramatic rounded fireplace with wood burning insert. Glass French doors allow you to close this room off without losing the flow or light of the 1st floor. To your left is the new open concept dining room and chef’s kitchen with custom chic counters and cabinets, huge breakfast bar for casual dining or entertaining, Café appliances, farmhouse sink, and with windows in every direction so the gorgeous back yard doubles as your art on the walls. Around the corner is the former butlers pantry area with access to the rear stairs, powder room, basement, and study- a charming room with built-in-shelving and additional fireplace.
The second floor offers 5 bedrooms, three of which have ensuite baths! The owner’s suite offers a huge floor plan, with enough room for a king sized bed, sitting area, and fitness equipment! A pass through dressing room with multiple closets leads to the full bath with separate­­­­­­­­­­ stall shower and soaking tub. Nearby are two spacious secondary bedrooms that share a hall bath. In another wing find two large bedrooms, each with a full bath perfect to be used as an au-pair suite, in law suite, or guest rooms.
Take the stairs to the attic to find an awesome open layout that is currently being used as play space and storage, but could easily be finished as an additional living area. The basement is huge and dry- with new French drain and sump pump system. There is a full, separate room that has been used as a dance/gymnastics studio in the past and is a kids’ recreational space now. There are a ton of possibilities! You’ll also find a nice laundry area down here with a new washer and dryer and new steam boiler.
From the kitchen door you can step out onto the rear patio, great for sitting or dining, with access to the oversized garage on the right and to the left take in the massive two-tiered, wrap-around yard. The owners have made your fantasies for relaxing, playing, gardening, and entertaining come true back here where the owner has installed a custom play set, sand pit, built into-the-hill slide and rock wall, cedar fencing, and carved tree bench. This yard is living it’s best life and you will too when you move into this home- the perfect space to live the loveliest life and make the happiest memories.
And if you ever want to venture beyond the yard, you’ll find you are a short walk from the regional rail line’s Noble Train Station, Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods (along with all of the other great businesses at the Fairway), downtown Jenkintown, the Abington Free Library and more! This home is within the highly-rated Abington School District, which recently added a huge STEM wing.
