Description
Constructed in the 1930’s during the height of the great depression, the lore is that this little brick cape was a pattern plan from better homes & gardens in the late 20’s called the provincetown, modified slightly from the original design (brick fronted, different windows, dormers & an attached garage (now a playroom). simply looking at the symmetrical façade, one would think that this house was small on the inside, you would be wrong! with nearly 2,000 sq. ft. of living space plus additional space in the walkout basement, there is much more than meets the eye. a brick sidewalk lines the entire front of a large yard for the neighborhood. there are heritage azaleas that line the side & rear yards, yet the large, level side yard has an abundance of sunshine. there are a series of metallic raised vegetable beds that could provide an abundance of food for the next owners. a large storage shed it located in the rear of the side yard. located on the east side of the house is a small wooded area that has a brick patio & a semi-circular raised stone wall that is the perfect spot for enjoying a cocktail around a fire pit. the sounds of the spring-fed stream that meanders through the yard is a welcome reprieve from the grinds of daily life. across the rear of the home is a spacious wrap around deck that allows for views into the neighboring woods. at the ground level, a large brick patio is accessible from the basement or a series of stepped retaining walls to the side yard. approach the front entry down the brick pathway, there’s a delightful horse head newel post, boxwoods flanking the symmetrical bay windows & climbing roses. a dutch door leads one to the living room on the left that has a wood burning fireplace, a wall of built-in bookcases & cabinets. the dining room on the right of the entry has an original corner cabinet. both the living & dining rooms provide access to the amazing addition that was completed in 2019, nearly doubling the size of the first floor. across the entire rear of the home, a vaulted great room was added with walls of windows overlooking the rear yard & a door to the deck. the modern kitchen is completely open to this new space with granite counters, maple cabinets, s/s appliances & a tiled floor. there is a large pantry on one side wall. tucked off the side of the kitchen is the former garage that was converted to additional living space with another door to the outside deck. the washer & dryer are located within this room along with an updated powder room. upstairs, there are three bedrooms & a hall bathroom. there is a surprising amount of hidden storage nooks & crannies tucked everywhere in most of the roof eaves. there is access to the attic from one of the large closets in the primary bedroom. the bedroom located over the former garage has two unique windows, portholes actually! in the basement, there is another large family room with a second decorative fireplace & a window overlooking the side yard with mercer tiles inset into the windowsill. the second full bathroom is actually located off this space. when the addition was added along the entire rear of the home in 2019, the area in the basement was also finished as a large game room (the pool table conveys with the sale!) with an epoxy floor & a door to the rear patio. for those that know wyncote, it is an amazing walking community, with sidewalks on most of the streets & five township owned parks in the community. the jenkintown/wyncote septa station provides the best service to temple university, downtown philadelphia, 30th street station, the universities & hospitals of drexel & university of pennsylvania & even the airport. just 5 minutes away, one will find many locally-owned businesses in downtown glenside or jenkintown for dining, shopping and other service needs. just 10 minutes away, one can find a trader joe’s and whole foods market in jenkintown, and other grocery outlets are easily reached.
