Welcome to 208 Berkeley Road, a one of a kind stone colonial in Glenside! It may look similar to its neighbors on the outside but inside this home is like no other! This property has been so well kept, the owners should change their names to Mr. and Mrs. Meticulous. The lucky new owner(s) of this property won't have a care in the world once settled. Just about everything that makes this home function at its finest has been replaced or improved in recent years, from the rooftop to the basement. There are multiple additions to the home making it one of the largest in the neighborhood. This home offers 4 bedrooms, including a master suite with large double closets, a full bath, deep window sills soaked with natural light. Each bedroom is spacious with generous closets, not typical for a home of its style and age. The full hall bath is ample size for siblings or roommates to share. The main floor offers a center hall entryway, formal living room with deep sills and a gorgeous stone fireplace. There are two areas to dine...a more formal dining room for holidays and gatherings and a breakfast room off the kitchen for your informal day-to-day meals. The kitchen is fabulous and ideal for chefs of all experience levels. Counter space is not an issue with this kitchen...there is plenty of it! Newer appliances included and a fan favorite... gas cooking! The room to fall in love with is the extended family room off the back. This room boasts skylight ceilings and walls of windows. From this room, the sun shines in from every angle...a true WOW FACTOR! As you imagine your holiday decorations fitting perfectly in this space, take notice of the gas fireplace to complete this picture perfect room. The backyard is an oasis of its own, surrounded by lovely landscaping to be enjoyed out on the patio where you can relax while listening to the sweet sounds of nature. The additions include the 4th bedroom, the extended family room, the breakfast room with adjacent powder room. This home is large enough to grow into and stay for decades to come. Upgrades include, new shingled roof 2019, new silver coated roof (on addition) 2020, gutter guards and upper siding replaced 2020, hardwood floors refinished 2020, water heater replaced 2019, HVAC replaced 2006, drainage system installed around the house 2015, new driveway 2015, basement windows replaced and new carpet 2014, newer sump pump and french drain system installed in basement. 1st addition was completed in 1986 which was extending the back of the home a few feet. The second addition was completed in 1996 which added the 4th bedroom and bathroom. The third and final addition was in 2006 which converted the covered porch to a family room, adding the windows, skylights and gas fireplace. All of this plus the incredible location, only minutes from Philadelphia. Walkable to Glenside train station. Easy accessibility to public transportation, highways, shopping and restaurants. Don't miss it!
