Broad Axe Village is known for its friendly neighbors, fun social gatherings throughout the year, colonial stone homes, and quiet charm so, it’s no wonder this is one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Ambler. Beautifully situated on just over half an acre with over 2,300 sq ft of living space inside, this home has been lovingly cared for by the owners for over 40 years. Important upgrades include a newer 80-gallon hot water heater, boiler, central air conditioning, and Anderson windows throughout the main house. Providing even more value, buyers can feel secure knowing a new 200 AMP electrical panel and new wiring throughout the home was installed a few years ago. A brand new roof, downspouts and window flashing were just installed this year.
The picturesque covered front porch is the perfect place to curl up with nature and a good book anytime. Entering from the front porch, you’ll notice original hardwood flooring in the foyer area. Although carpeting is the sellers’ preference in most rooms, the original hardwood flooring can be easily revealed. Step into the traditional living room and plan to enjoy cozy winter nights by the wood burning fireplace. Moving through the dining room with chair rail and crown molding, take time to notice the beautiful deep-silled windows providing natural sunlight not only here but in most rooms throughout. The kitchen was entirely remodeled many years ago, adding under cabinet lighting, a peninsula, and a stainless steel under-mount sink, and more recently was updated with granite tops and new flooring. Enjoy the ambiance of the wood burning stove in the family room by yourself or gather to play some board games stored in the built-in cabinets. A bonus room, currently used as an office, a powder room and a laundry room are also conveniently located on the first level.
On the second level, find the primary bedroom with dual closets and private full bathroom, plus three nice-sized bedrooms, a hall bath with a tub/shower combination, and pull-down stair access to the partially floored attic. The basement is partially finished with recessed lighting and carpeting, and is ready for your personal touches.
Adding even more reason to love this home, the screened back patio is located just off the family room where you can have fun entertaining, rain or shine, or simply unwind with a favorite beverage and a meal. Two exit doors from the porch give you entrance to your fully fenced, flat, and wide-open, back yard offering plenty of space for pets to roam, hosting parties, and playing outdoor games on those warm sunny days. The entire lawn has been professionally cared for, annually, and boasts a perennial garden just waiting to bloom, as well as, a fenced vegetable garden area for the avid gardener. There is a shed with a brand new roof in the back yard for all your outdoor storage. Located in the top-rated Wissahickon School District and just a short ride to downtown Ambler, Blue Bell, or Plymouth Meeting and only minutes away from wonderful parks, walking trails, shopping malls, dining and the Septa Regional Rail for quick travel into Philadelphia.
