**OPEN HOUSES Friday, Saturday and Sunday (June 2, 3 & 4) ** Introducing this tastefully updated and fully remodeled cape cod in the heart of Elkins Park. Virtually every inch of 7828 Montgomery Avenue has been improved over the past nine years, creating a home that is now beautiful, functional and ready for you. It's also convenient --situated within walking distance to shops, restaurants and the Elkins Park train station that offers direct service to Center City and the airport. The main level of this adorable home includes a living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and custom built-ins. A pass-through window opens into the eat-in kitchen that has been updated with newer cabinets, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. The refinished oak floors shine throughout almost every room of this home. The main level also includes two bedrooms and a fully updated bathroom with walk-in shower for easy access. Upstairs, there are two additional bedrooms (with a walk-in closet) and a full bathroom. If you choose, the rooms can easily function as an expanded primary suite with a jack-and-jill style bathroom that includes a double vanity and tiled walk-in shower. The basement has been partially finished and is currently being used as a bedroom with a full bathroom but can easily be repurposed as a family room, media room, rec room or home gym. (This room is not included in the total bedroom count in this listing.) The unfinished side of the basement provides ample storage and laundry facilities. Step outback and relax under the pergola with the peaceful sound of water trickling into the nearby pond. There's also a detached two-bay garage for your cars and additional storage. Upgrades to this 4-bedroom house since 2014 include: thirteen energy-efficient windows, completely remodeled kitchen and three bathrooms, and new drywall throughout. The electric service was upgraded to 200amp, a natural gas line was run into the property and the heating and central air conditioning systems were replaced. In 2019, the basement was finished and two sump pumps and interior and exterior French drains were installed to control water. During the renovations, new insulation behind the second floor ceiling was added, as well as LED lighting, and solid wood interior and exterior doors. The work continued outside with a new concrete patio, refinished driveway, garage apron, and front walkway. Gutters and garage doors were also replaced. Have to commute to the city? Be there in a flash. It's a 3-minute walk to the train station and another 20 minutes to Center City. This home is steps from a number of restaurants and shops including Creekside Market & Tap, Food Chasers, Le Onde Ristorante, Rollings Bakery, Goat House Creamery & Coffee, Open Book Bookstore and more.
