It doesn’t get any cuter than this! Nestled in the desirable Northwoods section of Cheltenham Township, this brick Colonial offers storybook curb appeal and thoughtful updates. Step inside to a welcoming living room with inlaid hardwood floors, a bay window, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The dining room features wainscoting and French doors that open to a large deck overlooking a flat, spacious, fully fenced backyard — perfect for entertaining, barbecues, or simply relaxing outdoors. The kitchen is bright and functional with maple cabinetry, glass-front uppers, tile backsplash, and gas cooking. Upstairs you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms, including a generous primary with hardwood floors and double closet, plus a hall bath with timeless beadboard detail and tile finishes. Recent upgrades include a newer roof (2023), a two-zone heat pump/central AC system, and a gas boiler that provides flexibility in heating the home. Additional highlights include a new 200-amp electric panel, replacement windows, ceiling fans, a full basement with laundry and storage, and an attached garage with private driveway. Northwoods is known for its tree-lined streets and welcoming community. This home is within walking distance to the SEPTA Regional Rail and North Hills Country Club, and just a short drive to Keswick Village, Jenkintown, Chestnut Hill and some of the area’s best local shops and restaurants. Easy access to Rt. 309, the Turnpike, and Center City makes commuting a breeze. Move right in and enjoy everything this picture-perfect home and neighborhood have to offer.
