Property Description
Your search has ended if you have been looking to find all the charm and character that Glenside and Keswick have to offer! The treasure you seek is located right here at 232 Woodlyn Ave. This stately, circa 1915 home is perfectly nestled on a quiet one-way street, in the heart of Glenside, within close proximity to highly respected Abington schools. The location is second to none being only a short walk to the SEPTA train lines traveling to Center City or the airport & to charming Chestnut Hill or quaint Doylestown. Travel no further when you have the walkability to discover all that delightful rejuvenated Keswick Village has to offer with its appealing shops, assorted bars & restaurants offering a quick bite or an elegant meal plus a variety of entertainment at the Keswick theater. Pride of ownership shows inside and out maintaining original architectural features including: traditional millwork, moldings, glass French doors with original hardware, deep sills, Inlaid hardwood flooring, front & back stairs, turned front staircase & more. The later expansion and renovations demonstrate the continued craftsmanship and attention to detail incorporated in the original design and construction. Step onto the completely rebuilt columned, covered front porch with slatted ceiling and composite decking & let your imagination take you away as you sit to enjoy the sights & sounds which surround you while sipping a cool drink to relax and unwind. Upon entering discover a welcoming interior featuring sunlight filled rooms filtered through sparkling windows landing on deep, rich polished inlaid hardwood flooring as it ebbs and flows from room to room. The charming entry foyer features bay window with window seat w/storage and a breezy lighted ceiling fan. To the left of the foyer glass French doors open to a warm and inviting study/library with lighted ceiling fan and the focal point being a raised hearth brick wood burning fireplace plus an impressive custom mantle setting the tone for a glowing fire to warm you. A second pair of glass French doors in the foyer open to a sizeable living room presenting a bay window with louvered shutters, inlaid hardwood & baseboard moldings. The Great room kitchen area presents an efficient workspace where everything is available for meal prep & clean-up right at the fingertips of the chef. The center island offers breakfast bar seating, a 5 burner gas cooktop, a Kitchen Aid s/c convection oven neatly tucked into the island & a Thermador range hood overhead. Plenty of custom Oak cabinetry & ceramic tile backsplash compliment the Corian countertop. There is a deep double bowl sink w/disposal, GE Dishwasher & Kitchen Aid French door refrigerator. Note the delightful sitting area has a wood stove, exposed brick wall and tiled floor. Spot the back stairs & the conveniently located first floor powder room. The Sunroom portion of the great room addition (2002-2003) features cathedral ceiling w/ceiling fan & recessed lighting, Pergo flooring, custom pantry, storage & coat closet. Just behind the bifold doors is a custom closet for your main floor laundry & a wet bar. Walls of Marvin casement windows with transom tops drench the room with natural light and a Marvin atrium door accesses the side composite deck w/bench seating, an extensive paver patio, gardens & yard. Ascending the stairs to the 2nd floor we find 3 bright & airy bedrooms, one used as an office with custom built in desk & cabinets each with hardwood floors, lighted ceiling fan, ample closet storage and an updated ceramic tiled hall bath w/stall rain head shower. The 3rd floor presents 2 generous sized rooms, pine floors, lighted ceiling fans, replacement windows, built-in desks, a large lighted walk-in cedar closet & full bath. The hall has a storage closet & an attic access panel. Completing this picture is an unfinished basement providing utilities servicing the home, lots of storage and bilco doors for outside access.
