Welcome Home!!! This spacious stone Colonial is deceptively larger than it appears from the street. Slightly elevated on its corner lot, the side entry 2-car garage and large driveway provide ample parking while the quiet street is the perfect location to access all that Elkins/Melrose Park has to offer (CreekSide Coop & either the Melrose or Elkins Park SEPTA stations are within easy walking distance as are numerous parks). Step inside & the 1st floor provides ample space to relax & entertain. The dining room has chair rails and a large bay window overlooking the front yard. The living room has two arch-topped bookshelf niches & a central wood burning fireplace. A huge picture window overlooks the side yard, while a set of French doors lead into the cozy sunroom (heated!) with more built-in cabinets. The galley kitchen has all the necessary appliances including two ovens (1 wall, 1 range with gas cooktop), D/W, fridge & disposal and Corian solid surface counters. One entire wall provides ample storage on shelving and floor-to-ceiling cabinets. There is a mudroom that provides direct access to the garage & rear patio. The basement is completely finished with 3 distinct spaces. Half is dedicated to the family room area with a wet-bar. A quarter is dedicated to the laundry (with its own toilet) and the remainder is where a previous owner used to have a dark room (with another functioning sink) that is now used for storage. Upstairs, the master suite occupies the rear wing with a renovated en-suite bathroom, a walk-in closet and direct access to the large deck overlooking the rear yard. This was completely renovated in 2005 & provides a wonderful place to get away from it all. Another large bedroom also has an en-suite bathroom & another walk-in closet. Basically, there are 2 master suites upstairs. The remaining 2 bedrooms share a hall bathroom on the 2nd floor. The 3rd floor has the 5th bedroom and the 4th full bathroom. There is also a large cedar closet along with ample storage space in the remainder of the un-finished attic. The rear yard has a large slate patio tucked into the corner behind the garage with access to the 2nd floor deck via stairs. Currently, the majority of the rear yard is being used to grow organic vegetables by the current owners & could easily be re-seeded by the next owner. There is also an outside entrance to the basement. It's a lovely home that provides ample living & sleeping space for all your needs.
