Charming 4 Bedroom, 3 Bath Stone Home with Scenic Views of Collen Brook Farm! Discover this deceptively spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath stone home that blends historic charm with modern renovations. Step inside to an open-concept living and dining area with gleaming, refinished hardwood floors and a slider that leads to a new rear deck—perfect for entertaining. The heart of this home is the custom-designed gourmet kitchen, featuring soft-close cabinets, Quartz countertops, ceramic tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting. A cozy breakfast nook with deck access overlooks the scenic Collen Brook Farm, offering a peaceful start to your mornings. The first floor also includes a large bedroom, a fully renovated bathroom with ceramic tile, and a bright family room with large windows, built-in shelving, and a stunning stone fireplace. This family room also has new wall-to-wall carpeting and a slider that opens onto the rear deck. On the second floor, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms with refinished hardwood floors and an updated full bathroom. One bedroom features access to a solarium with large windows, ideal for a reading nook or indoor garden. The daylight-finished lower level boasts knotty pine walls, a new drop ceiling, recessed lighting, and a newly added full bathroom. A second family room on this level, also with knotty pine walls, has two large storage closets and additional recessed lighting. The lower level includes a generously sized laundry room, workshop with workbench, and new high-efficiency HVAC system, gas hot water heater, and 200-amp electric service. Since a large part of the basement is above grade, it’s counted in the home’s overall square footage. Set on a spacious lot with a 2-car garage that borders the historic Collen Brook Farm, this home offers curb appeal and a welcoming ambiance. Additional upgrades include a new shingle roof, brick paver driveway, front walkway, and proximity to Philadelphia, the airport, shopping, and transportation. This property is move-in ready and offers a unique opportunity to own a beautifully renovated single-family home in a prime location. House is much larger than appears! Inspect and make a serious offer.
