810 E Southampton Ave, Glenside, PA 19038

Welcome to 810 E Southampton Ave, a charming and updated Wissahickon Schist twin just blocks from the new shopping and dining along Willow Grove Ave in Wyndmoor. The current owner has lovingly updated some of the original features of the house for today's buyers, with freshly painted walls and trim, new electric (all knob and tube wiring was removed), new AC mini splits on the first and second floors, new light fixtures, new kitchen and refinished and resealed hardwood floors. This stone home features 4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a terrific rear studio with separate electric and heat. Step onto the front porch into the spacious, sunlit living room that leads to the dining room, with new schoolhouse pendant lighting and 2 closets. The kitchen has been completely redesigned and expanded to maximize the light from both sets of sliding doors to the deck, and offers a powder room, access to the basement, vaulted shiplap ceiling, limestone floors, white cabinetry, oversized sink and mini splits offering convenient on-demand cooling. The wrap-around deck will quickly become a favorite place for summer dinners, morning coffee or entertaining family and friends. The second floor features a large front bedroom with ample built-in closet space, an additional bedroom, and updated hall bath with large tub and built-in cabinetry. The clean, dry basement can be finished off for additional living space. The third floor offers 2 good-sized bedrooms with views to the garden below. The rear detached garage was converted into a large, second floor studio with working fireplace, beamed ceiling and skylights. Several cars may be parked in the driveway. This delightful twin is just a short walk to the shops and dining of Wyndmoor and Chestnut Hill, as well the Gravers train station for an easy commute to Center City. Don't miss this one! 2021-08-06
