Gourmet Kitchen and Elegant Dining - The stunning kitchen renovation boasts two sinks, stainless steel appliances, quartzite countertops, gas cooking, and custom cabinets made by Pappajohn Woodworking, providing ample storage space. The kitchen's open design flows into the dining room, which features large openings to the living room and sunporch, creating an ideal space for entertainment. Luxurious Retreat - Upstairs, the second floor offers a spacious primary suite with ample closet space and a private bathroom with a stall shower. A second bedroom, hall bath, and laundry closet complete the second floor. The top floor features a third bedroom and full bath, perfect for additional family members, guests, or a home office. Versatile Lower Level - The lower level, accessed through the kitchen, features a finished bonus room with a fourth full bathroom, offering endless possibilities for use, such as an in-law or au pair suite, office, or recreational space. Prime Location - Nestled in a serene setting, this home is surrounded by mature gardens and offers direct access to walking trails of Cresheim Creek and the Wissahickon Valley.
