Description
A treasure. Not just because of its incredible location, but because of its attention to detail both inside and out. This home will melt your heart the second you pull up to it. Every inch of this home offers a one of a kind charm and takes you back to 1925, where life was simple and you appreciated being home. Because of its location within the community, it offers a lifestyle that many desire. Walk to the train in 2 minutes, Brookline eateries such as El Limon, Centrellas and McGillicuddys, the brand new state of the art library, schools, nature trails along Cobbs Creek and easy access to Ardmore, Wynnewood and all major highways. Nestled on a beautiful tree lined street, 536 sits perfectly on a spacious level lot with a long private drive, 2 car detached garage and a fully fenced backyard with privacy landscaping. Enter at the covered front door. A center hall greets you with warmth, space and natural light from all angles. The first floor has a gorgeous living room with built-ins, beautiful French doors that lead to the covered front porch and a stone surround and ventless gas fireplace. Notice the original hardware on the porch doors that have been restored. The dining room has a gorgeous bay window and is open to a custom kitchen with ample white shaker double hung cabinets, soapstone countertops, carved drainboard, stainless steel appliances and an abundance of natural light. Off the kitchen is the main floor laundry, perfectly tucked away, a powder room with board and batten trim and a one of a kind mudroom entry with built-ins for convenience. Again, the details. Upstairs on the 2nd floor you will find 3 large bedrooms, one of which has been converted into a primary suite. The new primary bath is absolutely perfect! A large and beautifully tiled shower, double vanity, the best tile and fixture choices possible, toilet closet and walk-in closet. The attic is a walk up, perfect for overflow storage and could be finished. The basement of the home has been partially finished to house a perfect office/guest room or play space, with a wall of built-ins and room for a nicely sized sofa. There is a large walk-in pantry closet as well as a utility room and one of the coolest half baths you've ever seen! The light fixtures, hardware, original oak with walnut inlay and pine flooring embraces you at every turn. When you walk into this home you just want to sit down and take it all in. This home features a detached 2-car garage wired for Level 2 EV charging, complemented by thoughtfully designed landscaping and hardscaping that create a serene setting both in the front and back yards. This is a very, very special home and the next owners will be able to enjoy every aspect of it. Take advantage of its exceptional location in Haverford Township. Truly one of the best walk-to locations there is, yet set on a very tranquil block in Brookline. Don't let this one pass you by!
