Description

This sweet corner-lot gem is the kind of place that just feels like home the minute you pull up. Sitting on a generous piece of land, it offers space, character, and all the little things that make it feel like home. Inside, you’ll find a cozy living area and two main-floor bedrooms, all with wall-to-wall carpet—but peek inside the linen closet and you’ll see a glimpse of the original hardwood floors underneath, just waiting to shine again. Upstairs is the real standout: a huge second-floor bedroom with a cedar closet. Whether you’re dreaming of a private primary suite, a quiet home office, or a space for guests to spread out, this room has the size and charm to make it work. Downstairs, there’s a large basement with a beautiful stone, wood-burning fireplace—just waiting for someone to finish it off and turn it into a great hangout, family room, or extra living space. Out back, a covered porch invites you to relax, rain or shine. The detached garage is perfect for storage, hobbies, or a little DIY action. And with a newer roof on the house, you’re stepping into a home with solid bones and a lot of potential. It’s charming, welcoming, and ready for whatever you’ve got planned next. Located in a prime spot, you're within walking distance of three township parks, Ardsley Train Station and just a short drive to Keswick Village, the PA Turnpike, Route 309, shopping, dining, golf courses, and more.
