Welcome to this charming Dutch colonial on one of the most attractive streets in Wyndmoor. You'll feel right at home when you take the graceful stone and slate walkway from the street and walk into this compact, manageable, elegant house with large windows that wash the interior with light. Tasteful glass-front fireplace and wood mantel bring a sense of warmth and comfort to the living room. Windows into the back and side yards bring the professionally landscaped gardens inside enabling you to see the seasons change through the colors of the shrubs and perennials that are throughout the yard. Enclosed front porch can also be used as a family room, home office, or second living space. The charming kitchen and back porch lead you into the back yard where a large slate patio encourages you to relax and take in the quiet, shady, fenced back yard with mature trees. With a walk-up attic, clean, dry walk-out basement and a garden shed in the back yard you have plenty of storage and expansion opportunities. The house and grounds are environment-friendly with 4-unit split-system heating/air conditioning along with hot water heat, permeable surface driveway, and small swales to absorb rainwater. With plantings covering 80 percent of the yard, you will find minimum mowing required. Original plaster walls, Pella windows and hardwood floors throughout make maintenance minimal as well. Enclosed porch on the first floor looks out onto the landscaped front yard and has a powder room. The three bedrooms upstairs are proportionally sized to accommodate a variety of needs. The hall bath finishes the second floor. Attractiveness of the location cannot be overstated as this house is in the award-winning Springfield Township school district and is one block from "downtown" Wyndmoor with eateries, banking, hardware store, service stations, and much more. Only a little further away are Chestnut Hill, a Septa train station, a full-size grocery store, and easy access to Fairmount Park. This home is priced to move quickly and the owners will review all reasonable offers.
