Property Description
This is it, the Ambler home that you have been waiting for. Fabulous open concept, tons of natural light, great updates, amazing back yard, and all for an incredible price. 229 Highland Avenue has been well maintained and is in absolute move in condition. The home features a spacious living and dining room, bathed in natural light with a vaulted ceiling, architectural details and recessed lighting. This lovely space is open to both the kitchen, and the hallway above. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed, offering tons of cabinetry and storage space, plenty of work space on the counters, bar area, glass tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and more. Upstairs you will find three nicely sized bedrooms with ample closet space, a full bath and access to attic storage. Downstairs on the lower level is a fantastic family room. This space was designed for entertaining and features a bar, complete with built in beverage fridge, surround sound, and access to additional storage. When this room was renovated, extra measures were taken to sound proof the space. Adjacent to the family room is a huge laundry/work room, including conveniently located powder room and access to the rear yard. Outside, you will fall in love with the back yard, it is perfectly sized, fenced in and private. Immediately outside the back door is a large patio, accommodating dining, lounging and cooking areas. There are lovely beds, filled with bulbs waiting to bloom this Spring, a fire pit, and nice sized shed for storage. While fenced, the rear of the property offers additional privacy in the way of a bamboo 'privacy wall'. This bamboo was installed the right way, in a retained bed with root(shoot) barrier, so it grows only where you want it. 229 Highland also features a newer, high efficiency heater, central air conditioning, off street parking for two cars and more. The location is incredible; sought after Wissahickon School District, and just a few blocks from downtown Ambler. Living in Ambler is a true joy, as not only is it a wonderful, tight knit community, but there is so much to do. Ambler boasts fabulous restaurants and bars, shopping and services, annual festivals and parades, seasonal farmers' market, a cooperative grocery store is on its way, there are several great parks, a library and more! Did I mention that this is all within walking distance??? This home is a special opportunity, one that you do not want to miss.
