Beautiful in Broad Axe Village! Found in the center of a bucolic Ambler neighborhood full of mature trees, well-maintained homes, and an unofficial community association that hosts fun activities and social gatherings throughout the year is this stunning 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath, center-hall, Colonial-style home. This home truly is the stuff that dreams are made of. Backing up to preserved land at Prophecy Creek Park, a treasured area full of rolling meadows, walking trails, and an array of trees and wildlife that connects to the Wissahickon Creek, this home provides privacy and spectacular sunset views. Framed by a split-rail fence and elegant landscaping, this stately, sturdy, stone-exterior home will impress and capture your heart before you even step inside. Get ready, because once inside you won’t want to leave! To the right of the foyer area is a picture-perfect, spacious formal living room and dining room with an inviting stone-surround wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floors, crown molding, chair railing, and charming deep-silled windows that allow sunlight to flood the room, especially in the mid-afternoon. Are you imagining the holidays you will host in this space? Speaking of hosting, on the other side of the foyer is a jaw-droppingly gorgeous and large kitchen that is just begging for you to send out the invitations to your house-warming party. The seating area beside the big, bright front windows is a great space for your guests to relax with a cocktail while you prepare a feast. Or they may choose to perch at the lovely and long center island topped with Madre Pearl Quartzite where they can sip away while lending a helping hand. This thoughtfully designed magazine-worthy kitchen features hardwood floors, crown molding, luminous lighting, plentiful and creative cabinetry for your storage needs, an abundance of counter space featuring the same beautiful quartzite as the island, a perfectly coordinated subway tile-style backsplash, and high-end stainless-steel appliances, including a gas cooking range with a hooded vent. The kitchen sink is framed by a pass-thru providing views of the backyard and Prophecy Creek Park areas. It also peeks into the casual dining and family room areas that span across the rear of the home. These sunny rooms feature a handsome exposed-stone wall and stylish tile flooring. The family room area, boasting built-ins for your books and accessories and a gas fireplace, is separated by French doors to the adjacent formal living and dining room areas. Another set of French doors between the casual dining and Family room areas provides access to the magnificent stone patio and expansive back yard. The yard is large enough for a garden, lawn games, and just about anything you might want or imagine, and the layout of the home has the perfect flow for indoor/outdoor living and entertaining. Back inside the house, upstairs you will find 4 well-proportioned bedrooms—one featuring a classically styled, en suite bathroom with a stall shower and 3 others sharing an equally pretty hall bathroom with a tub/shower combination and radiant heated floors. All 4 bedrooms have hardwood floors, large windows, and plenty of closet space. Don’t miss the pull-down attic providing storage for your overflow items. A finished daylight basement on the lower level is the perfect spot for a media room, a game room, a home office, a gym—whatever best suits your needs. This area features even more storage space, a laundry area, and attractive and durable wood-style vinyl plank floors. Not to be forgotten, an attached garage provides room for parking and additional storage. Last, but certainly not least, this home is located in the top-rated Wissahickon School District and is near to all of the shopping and dining conveniences of downtown Ambler along with neighboring Blue Bell, Lower Gwynedd, Plymouth Meeting, Flourtown, and Chestnut Hill. Don't miss the photos, floor plans, video, and 3-D Tour.
There is no reward in this business comparable to successfully guiding people through the sometimes-daunting process of buying and selling a house.
