Description

Welcome to this beautiful 4 bedroom, 2 bath ranch situated in a park-like setting, complete with a rare water view of the pond in Chandeleur Woods. Before you enter the home, you will hear the birds and notice the manicured yard complete with Japanese maple trees, hand-chosen landscape rocks and beds that feature a variety of bushes and flowers that will bloom throughout the year. Upon entering the home, you will enjoy the open floor plan and views of the manicured backyard and tranquil pond from the spacious living room/family room. The main level also features beautiful custom hardwood floors throughout (including closets), as well as ample storage and closet space. The laundry room is conveniently located off of the garage entrance and can double as a mudroom. The kitchen was updated recently with new granite, stone floor, tile backsplash, appliances and light fixtures. The master bedroom and en suite bath are located off of the living room on the south side of the house with access to the deck. There is a sliding glass door from the master bedroom onto the deck for the new homeowner to enjoy the views... The bathroom is very large and features a double sink, walk in shower as well as comfy soaking tub with new custom tiling. The three other bedrooms and full bath are located on the west side of the house making it convenient for separate sleeping areas if so desired. The second full bath also features custom tiling and a marble vanity top. On the lower level you will be blown away by the (approximately) 1,000 square feet of finished basement (not reflected in public records) and perfect for entertaining friends and family! You will have endless fun in the large main room complete with a large, custom hardwood bar, new pool table complete with pool table light, and accessories plus a sitting area and built-ins near the fireplace. You will also find a dart area complete with cork board wall and separate room with new air hockey table, and table and chairs - perfect for a poker or card night or enjoying books or puzzles. There is no need to buy a pool table, air hockey table and table/chairs as these are included with the house! There is also a storage room complete with built-ins and access to the backyard through bilco doors. There was no detail that went unfinished - tile flooring, hardwood beams with custom hardwood cornish pieces, plenty of storage and so much more. You will also find another room on the other side of the basement which would be ideal for a home gym or large office. The basement also has a huge walk in cedar closet for additional storage. Additionally the basement comes with a TV and stand, server cart and microwave and all bar stools plus two gorgeous mirrors! Heading back upstairs, you will find a sliding glass door off of the kitchen leading to a freshly painted, sweeping deck which overlooks more meticulously maintained landscape beds and features a large shed which will hold much more than lawn tools and mower! The deck comes with a brand new grill and overlooks the small fire pit in the back perfect for relaxing by in the evenings. The tranquil setting is a nature lover's dream as you encounter birds singing, bunnies, geese and all types of wildlife. This house is a must see and will sell quickly! 2022-05-29

    "Easy access to 95 and route 1. Nearby stores within a 5 mile radius in both directions. Appo School district is preferred for most. Our Neighborhood is tucked back away from any main roads. Traffic is non existent and neighborhood is quiet. Traveling to local restaurants and entertainment is easy and within ten minutes. Commute to PHILADELPHIA and airport is approximately one hour. Traveling during summer travel and holiday weekends is painful on 95 and surrounding roads with influx and outflux of people traveling. "
