Description

In Receipt of Two Offers. Please submit offers by 4 pm on Wednesday April 24th. Quality and character abound in this classic stone front Mt Penn Home. Located in one of the most desired neighborhoods in the area and just steps from the A-field park and playgrounds, this charming property is sure to please! You will appreciate the vestibule entry on rainy and snowy days. Next you will step into the center hall foyer equipped with a coat closet and powder room. From here you have access to both the wood paneled den to one side, which is cozy and quiet, and the formal living room to the other. The living room welcomes you to take in all its charm and character with its crown moldings, gas fireplace with a mantel that extends to encompass symmetrical bookshelves, cabinets and sconce lighting. The hardwood floors along with other custom amenities create an atmosphere of warmth and comfort. . Wind through to the dining room, with more hardwood flooring and crown moldings as well as corner hutches built specifically for this room with both style and taste. Leaving the dining room and passing through the swinging door, you will enter a bright, efficient, well appointed kitchen with plenty of cabinets, storage and direct access to the large two-tiered deck. Upstairs there is a primary bedroom en suite along with a large walk in closet area and an additional closet with access to the large attic space. There are two other ample sized bedrooms on this level both with oversized closet space, hardwood flooring, and dormered windows, adding more character and natural light. Few homes offer the quality and space that one will enjoy at this Philmay Terrace Beauty. Lets go back down stairs and out to the rear yard where this home continues to provide quality of life features that stand the test of time. There is a double deck, boasting 425+/- square feet, where there is plenty of space to cook, entertain, relax and enjoy the mature landscaping and tranquil setting that is this shaded enclave. Other amenities include a well cared for slate roof, gas forced air heat, central air conditioning, a two car attached garage with finished walls, loads of storage, and a one-of -a kind covered porch off the den. You will be hard pressed to find another home like this one. The current owners have loved and cared for this property for 50+ years and would like to pass the torch to another family who will love and care for it the way they did. This property is being sold in its "As Is" condition. The municipal inspection will be done by Seller but repairs will be the responsibility of the Buyer.
