About This Property

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.
