Welcome to a new offering in the desirable Custis Woods community in Glenside. This custom-built stone ranch home features stunning craftsmanship and original architectural details, such as the hardwood flooring, arched entry ways, and crown molding. There are 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, an oversized 2-car side-facing garage, and many updates and upgrades throughout. The home has 1,924 square feet of living space according to the seller’s appraisal at the time of her purchase. This number includes the family room/sunroom addition. There is hardwood flooring in the Living Room, Dining Room, and Bedrooms. The sun-drenched kitchen has quartz countertops, stone backsplash, stainless appliance suite, wine fridge, a double sink, newer luxury vinyl plank flooring, and two windows overlooking the patio and fenced rear grounds which are studded with mature trees and plantings. The living room has a wood-burning fireplace with marble surround as its focal point, and has two windows facing the front yard. There is also a large picture window facing the driveway and side yard. The Dining Room has a door behind which are stairs leading to the attic. The lucky home buyers may choose to finish this space as some of the neighbors have done. The sun/family room addition, completed in 2017, is equipped with electric baseboard heat, flagstone flooring, and a ceiling fan. It has been insulated, so it can be enjoyed year round. It is accessible from both, the Dining Room and the Primary Bedroom, making it a perfect space to enjoy your favorite cup of Joe or glass of wine… or to hang out with friends and family after dinner. The Primary Bedroom features two closets and has an updated bathroom with a newer shower enclosure. There are two other nice-sized bedrooms, one of which is currently being used as a sitting room. The hall bath has been updated and features a separate area with a bathtub and overhead shower. The basement is unfinished, but was professionally waterproofed by BQ Systems during the previous owners’ tenure. The back yard, partially enclosed with a split rail fence, offers lots of privacy and has a children’s playset and a paver patio, making it a great space for relaxing and grilling during the summer months. This delightful property, offering the convenience of one-story living, is minutes from shopping as well as casual and fine dining in Chestnut Hill, Keswick Village, Downtown Glenside, and Ambler. It is also walking distance to the Glenside Train Station. It is convenient to major routes including 73, 309, and the PA Turnpike.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePoor - My child has had one or two excellent teachers and the rest of the time got stuck with teachers who were known to the administration ineffective - which is unfortunate. I will not be sending my younger child there.Parent Review6y ago - Elkins Park School
- 5-6

- 652 Students
6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a student, I think I can speak correctly about the overall school. The current principal there Dr. Clark only cares about her "image" she does not interact with the students and when she does only to yell at them at the office door. She has rules in place that help but can be inconvenient and not helpful to most students. The overall school is poorly taken care of there is water leaking from the ceilings in the bathrooms and gym. For most of the bathrooms, there are locks missing from half of the stalls most of the stalls have inappropriate graphite on the walls that have been there since the 2021-2022 school year. Bullying is a nightmare if you are being bullied they tell you they will stop it but never do. Where most of the bullying goes on on the buses the people on the buses make a child's school day miserable. The kids will fight and throw stuff curse and bully anyone minding their own business. They let the kids off with a warning which does not work. There is little punishment and when they try punishment it never works. My friend had racist things said to her but they said "That is not ok we will talk to them about it". They tell them to stop they don't and they don't receive punishment. This has been an ongoing thing. The lunch is too long with short recess and they make you come in and sit down and make everyone quiet for 5 minutes then you can get your food which you should be able to do when you walk in and not have to wait to waste your recess. The teachers are pretty good some can be too much. When you are in 6th grade in music you have to do the "On tour Project" nobody wants to do it you are not even making music and they make you perform in front of two classes. This doesn't sound so bad but when a lot of kids today have social anxiety it can be too much. The students are quick to judge and talk about people none does anything about it. I will say you will make friends here that will be your friends for life but that Is one of the only things I look forward to.Parent Review1y ago - Cheltenham High School

"I wish the houses had a little bit more land in between them for grass. Or of the patch of grass between the sidewalk and the curb was a little wider than they would be definitely plenty of spots for dogs to go to the bathroom. But otherwise everything’s good, almost every dog owner here picks up their poop."
