Description

Welcome home to 5 E. Benedict Avenue. This beautiful 1904 Craftsman Bungalow has been lovingly updated with over $120,000 in improvements, including a full kitchen renovation and completely reconfigured second floor. All renovations were completed with the intention of preserving and enhancing the historic character of the house, while at the same time modernizing its functionality. This 4-bedroom and 2 bath home is situated on a family friendly tree lined street in the charming Oakmont section of Havertown, and is easily walkable to many amenities, including the farmers~ market, restaurants, parks, public library, schools, YMCA, and public transportation. Walking up the front steps, you'll find an expansive and sunny 3 season porch. From there, the original entry door leads into an oversized living room with 9 ft ceilings and hardwood floors that continue throughout the home. The living room boasts a beautiful stone fireplace surrounded by original glass fronted cabinetry, two coat closets, and recessed lighting. French doors open from the living room to the spectacularly renovated eat-in kitchen boasting white Shaker style cabinetry, honed granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, Bosch and LG stainless steel appliances and carefully selected light fixtures. Off the kitchen is a mudroom that can be used as is, or easily converted to a first-floor laundry room. The mudroom looks out onto the flat fenced backyard and two-level deck. Rounding out the first floor are two generously sized bedrooms and an updated full bathroom. Once upstairs, you will find a bright and spacious loft style family room. Continue down the hall to a third bedroom, full bathroom and a very large master bedroom with two generously sized closets. Current owners plan to install a new Central A/C system. Whether you are enjoying your morning cup of coffee on the front porch, a summer happy hour in the backyard or cozying up by a warm fire on a chilly winter night, you will be sure to enjoy life on Benedict Avenue. Don~t miss this opportunity, this home will not last! 2019-10-02
