A PLACE TO HANG YOUR HEART! This expansive 4 BR, 2BA stone, brick and stucco English Tudor twin in the popular Aronimink section of Drexel Hill has all the I want's! Premier, convenient location! Close to shopping, eateries, doctor's offices,transportation and schools. The local Drexeline trolley stop to 69th St and to Media for all the fun things to do there is a short walk. The bus line takes you where you want to go as well. Twins like these are among the largest in Drexel Hill! The appeal of these homes is that they are the only twins on this area of State Rd with on-street parking! This home looks out onto the cross street instead of another house. Much more private! Lots of old fashioned charm mixed with all the "youthanized" amenities that today's buyers desire. Only 4 owners since 1940. These owners added some nice updates in their tenure here. Hardwood flooring t/o with double walnut inlay , crystal door knobs, archways galore, modern wall colors. Enter through the sun-filled, stone-arched enclosed porch with ceramic tiled flooring and "sunburst" enhanced windows and doors. Step up through the French door with sidelites to the large living room, complete with a corner, stone fireplace w/sconces overhead and a wooden mantle and tile hearth, as well as a high triple window on the side wall. The Dining Room shows off sconces too,another set of side windows and a new chandelier. There is a beautiful coat closet here, with period molding and beveled glass on the door. In the updated, open concept kitchen and breakfast room area you'll find granite counter tops and peninsula, some stainless steel appliances, antiqued maple cabinetry, (corner cupboard w/glass insert, travertine tile backsplash w/smaller tile accents), a wine glass holder, recessed lighting,CT floor, a side-by-side fridge,GD, Ikea cabinet and a gas stove. The kitchen/breakfast room spans the width of the house! The back door opens to a fabulous roofed deck/balcony that looks out onto the long, fenced back yard and pavered patio that sits pretty right in the middle of the yard. Who knew that these yards in this section of homes are so big? Start shopping for the patio furniture for this area for next Spring! Upstairs you'll find 4 good-sized bedrooms and 2 full baths! The Master BR is in the front of the house. It has a ton of lighted closet space, a triple front window, a chandelier and its own full black & white subway-tiled bath with shower stall. The up-to-date vanity sink has a mirror to match overhead. The other three BR's are spacious and painted in modern colors.The updated hall bath, also w/ black and white subway tile,features a pedestal sink, a ceramic tub and new 3-light bar over the beveled mirror. The basement is clean and unfinished. An exit door leads to the carriage style door of the large, integral garage and 2 off street parking spaces. Only this home and the one next door share the driveway, then it turns left for the private parking for #4930. The seller offers a FREE HOME WARRANTY to the new buyer(s)...WOW! So, throw away your wishbone, and MAKE THIS ONE YOURS! You won't regret it!!
