***Showings begin Saturday, January 24 at the open house -1-3pm*** Welcome to Chelten Hills, one of Elkins Parks most walkable and commuter-friendly neighborhoods. This 3-bed, 2-bath Tudor twin sits in a pocket of classic 1930s homes known for friendly neighbors, epic Halloweens, and quick access to the train. From here, you can be on SEPTA in minutes and in Center City before your coffee cools. You're also within walking distance of several parks, restaurants, shops, the library, and more. Inside, the layout is classic, comfortable and full of natural light. The living and dining rooms offer an open flow, and the kitchen was fully updated in 2022 with new cabinets, flooring, and quartz counters. Off the kitchen is a nearly 200 sf addition currently used as a family room, complete with a wood-burning stove. Fourteen windows throughout the house were replaced within the last nine years. Upstairs youll find three bedrooms, an updated hall bath (2018), and pull-down access to a roomy attic for extra storage. The finished basement adds usable space for a playroom, office, home gym or media room, plus a second full bath, laundry, and storage. Included are a full house water softening system and a reverse osmosis filter drinking system at the kitchen faucet. The home has been well cared for over the years, and some improvements are already done. Buyers who want to update dcor or finishes will have an easy time putting their own style on a solid foundation. It's believed hardwood floors may be under the carpet on the first level. The backyard is easily manageable, and the garage offers great storage. Within a mile, you can wander the hills of Curtis Arboretum and hit the dog park, play pickleball at Wall Park and enjoy the playground, or relax at High School Park, a passive recreation space that hosts festivals and concerts in the warmer months. The Elkins Park Library, coffee shops and several restaurants are also an easy walk away. Not only is access to Center City quick and easy on regional rail, the Elkins Park station offers direct service to the airport, Temple University, 30th Street Station, and Penn Medicine Station as well. This is a smart opportunity in a quaint neighborhood where homes rarely take long to get scooped up.
