Colonial

For the first time in 52 years, this rare Lawrence Park Colonial is now available for a new owner to make it their own. Wonderfully maintained by its longtime owner, the good bones of this home is ready for someone to dress it up again for the future! Before you consider the actual property, consider what the location offers; easy access to major highways, the airport, public transportation, shopping, restaurants, public parks and the low taxes often associated with Marple township. In addition, the Marple-Newtown school district has been a destination school for many Delaware county families for decades, with the Loomis elementary school within walking distance. The home itself offers 3 large bedrooms, a primary bathroom, Hall bath and two powder rooms. One on the main level and one in the finished basement. Entry is from a covered front porch into a center hall. To the left is a Family room with built in shelving and window seat. The main level powder room is located here along with direct access to the kitchen. To the right off of the foyer is the formal living room with a large picture window with a custom sliding window treatment, truly unique. Moving forward is the formal dining room with a convenient pass thru access into the kitchen to facilitate your dinner parties. The kitchen offers a dishwasher, disposal, gas cooktop and electric double wall oven. The cabinetry is fantastic and beautifully built. There is a separate eating area in the kitchen as well. From there you have access to a large laundry room with some nice shelving and storage that can double as a pantry. From here you can access the rear screened porch with storm windows as well which could easily serve 3 seasons and rear fenced level yard with a storage shed. The second level offers a primary bedroom with a ceramic tile bath plus two other large bedrooms and hall bath. There is hardwood flooring under all of the carpeted areas on the first and second levels. The basement is finished and features a large area to entertain, and a built-in wet bar is ready to keep everyone refreshed. A multizone gas hot water heating system will keep you warm during the winter. There is a gas fired back-up generator in case of power outage.
