Property Description:

Located in the highly sought after Lower Merion Township, this 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath 1950 colonial offers convenient location to award winning Lower Merion schools, mainline town centers, and the city of Philadelphia.

The first floor includes the living room, dining room, kitchen, and family room, which walks out to the attached garage. The unfinished basement includes a half bath, giving the space wonderful potential for a finished guest and play space. The backyard patio overlooks one of the most spacious yards in the neighborhood and is fenced in, providing a safe and private space for dogs or children to play as well as for entertaining. Updated features to the home include a new roof (2018) and insulation/storage platforms in the attic, his and her closets in the master bedroom, and new fixtures in the upstairs hall bath. New stainless steel appliances in the kitchen include a gas stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher. Situated on a quiet street in the heart of Bala Cynwyd, this home offers both an oasis as well as exceptional convenience for those wishing to raise a family on the mainline. In addition to being close to multiple train stations and Route76, the house is a short walk to both Cynwyd Elementary School and Bala Middle School. Within one mile of the house are General Wayne and Bala Cynwyd Parks, the Cynwyd Heritage trail, and Bala Cynwyd center. The house is also located within the Jewish Eruv.
