Description

Welcome to this charming and meticulously updated home, perfectly situated in the sought-after town of Glenside. Living here means enjoying the best of suburban charm with real community energy including walkable streets, seasonal festivals, and a downtown lined with local favorites. Catch a show at the historic Keswick Theatre or enjoy a cannoli from TreVi Cucina Italiano. It’s a town where neighbors become friends and weekends plan themselves. From the moment you step inside, you’ll appreciate the thoughtful upgrades, open layout, and inviting living spaces designed for comfort and easy entertaining. The heart of the home is the spacious, modern kitchen featuring granite countertops, white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, tile flooring, a large pantry, and recessed lighting. A bar-height counter with seating and a generous breakfast area create the ideal open-concept flow for gathering with family and friends. An inviting foyer with a coat closet leads into the bright living room, complete with recessed lighting, crown molding, and a modern ceiling fan. Off the kitchen, the formal dining room showcases gorgeous board-and-batten detail, chair rail, and hardwood floors, offering elegance and character. Just a few steps down from the kitchen is a cozy family room with vaulted ceilings, a white brick accent wall, and sliding doors that open to the spacious backyard. A full bathroom on the first floor adds convenience for everyday living and guests. Upstairs, you’ll find three nicely sized bedrooms, all with hardwood flooring, along with a fully renovated hall bathroom featuring a frameless glass shower, new vanity, beautiful tile work, and a linen closet for extra storage. The full basement provides plentiful storage options, while outside, the large paver patio creates the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying the peaceful view of the open fields beyond. A bonus is the detached man-cave/she-shed, complete with electric—an ideal spot for darts, watching the game, or simply unwinding. With its updates, charm, outdoor living spaces, and prime location in the Abington School District, this is more than a home; it’s a lifestyle in the heart of Glenside.
