Welcome to 437 Crescent Road, nestled in a secluded, wooded corner of Wyncote, just a stone's throw from Philadelphia. This custom-built home, constructed in 1965, exudes charm, character and elegance, standing proudly atop a 3/4 acre lot, surrounded by mature trees. From the moment you step inside, it's clear that sunlight was a top priority in the design process. The layout strategically places large windows and glass doors throughout the house, allowing natural light to flood every corner, from the expansive dining room to the cozy living spaces. Speaking of the dining room, you’ll be impressed by its size and stunning elegance with two sets of French doors overlooking the picturesque views of the private front yard. A table for 12+ would fit easily in this space, allowing for dinner parties as grand as the room itself. From there, we step into the tastefully updated kitchen – a culinary haven with two wall ovens, two sinks, a separate prep area, and a convenient butler's pantry. There’s room for a breakfast table next to the pair of French doors leading to the back patio, perfect for al fresco dining and barbecuing. From there, you step into the family room, a generous space anchored by a cozy fireplace flanked by sets of French doors that again lead to the back patio. The family room is fully open to the adjacent sunken living room which is bathed in natural light streaming through bay windows and French doors. The room spans the entire depth of the house, offering views of the front, back and side yards from wherever you sit. The staircase, elegantly concealed behind a discreet wall, leads you to the second floor, which has five bedrooms including the primary suite —a luxurious escape from the stresses of the day. Relax in bed while enjoying views of the treetops through the large bay window. A full length mirror separates the bedroom from the newly updated en-suite bathroom, complete with soaking tub, floating double vanity, separate shower room and water closet. Around the corner, a second bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom, while on the other side of the house, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms and a large hall bathroom with shower stall , tub, double sink vanity and water closet. The hallway, connecting the two sides of this level leads to a balcony overlooking the front yard, accessible through a pair of French doors. Downstairs, the finished basement offers versatility as a home gym, game room, or potential in-law suite, complete with a full bathroom, laundry room, and access to the oversized garage. Step outside to the sprawling backyard, a canvas for outdoor enjoyment with a flagstone patio, large level lawn and a concrete area perfect for pickleball and handball enthusiasts. The home has been meticulously updated both inside and out with new bluestone along the exterior walkways, sustainable Eucalyptus and Bamboo flooring inside, new HVAC systems, water heater, kitchen renovation, new appliances and more. While this home feels secluded, cafes, parks, theaters, shops, restaurants and farmers markets in Wyncote, Jenkintown and Glenside are all within walking distance. Commuters will love the proximity to major highways like Route 309 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike and the Jenkintown-Wyncote Train Station which sits less than a mile from the house and provides service to Center City and the airport. In essence, 437 Crescent Road is a sanctuary of elegance, flooded with natural light and offering ample space and a convenient location. Come experience it for yourself – your oasis awaits.
