Welcome to this well-maintained 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom home in the heart of Collingdale. This house is conveniently located just off MacDade Blvd, close to major roads, shopping and public transportation, including the trolley stop that is a quick walk. Some of the Sellers favorite features of the home are the enclosed front porch, the spacious backyard with a fire pit, and driveway parking for 2+ cars. The home is a perfect mix of original charm and character, coupled with modern updates. Enter from the beautiful tree-lined street into the enclosed porch. This bonus space can serve many purposes including a mud room, a 2nd living room, a study and so much more. The walls of windows make the space light filled and cozy. Continuing into the main part of the home, first is the spacious living room with plenty of space to host friends and family. Hardwood floors flow throughout the living and dining rooms and each room also has a ceiling fan for added comfort. The dining room space is also plentiful including a closet for added storage and the double windows welcome the sunlight inside. The kitchen features white cabinets, a great amount of storage and counter space, as well as stainless steel appliances (the refrigerator is white to fit the aesthetics of the kitchen). A half bathroom is strategically placed on the first floor for added convenience. The basement and yard are both accessed through the kitchen as well. The rear yard is oversized and fenced in, making it the perfect space for pets, kids, gardening, relaxing, entertaining and more. The yard has a patio, a firepit and a beautiful cherry blossom tree in the rear. When the tree blooms it is gorgeous! The driveway can be accessed from the yard and there is also a door leading directly to the basement. Upstairs are 3 nice size bedrooms, each with a ceiling fan and good closet space, as well as a full bathroom. The front bedroom is the largest of the 3 with hardwood floors and a double closet. The bathroom features a tub/shower combination and updates. The unfinished basement houses the mechanicals and washer and dryer, as well as provides a large amount of storage space. Again, the basement also has direct access to the yard for convenience. Don’t forget the driveway parking for at least 2 cars, plus plenty of street parking, rounding out this wonderful home! Some improvements since purchasing include replacing the water and sewer lines from the public/ street hook ups to the house, a new gas stove/oven and new radiator covers on the first floor. This home has the indoor and outdoor space you have been seeking, in a convenient location, and is ready for you to move right in! Various grants could be available to help with purchase costs. Please ask a lender or contact us for assistance.
