Pride of ownership exudes from this 3-story stone colonial in the highly sought-after Highland Farms neighborhood. In this meticulously cared for home, you’ll find old world charm with a new feel. Enter the large foyer, and to the left is the sizable living room with a wood-burning fireplace and built-ins. Providing an easy flow, French doors on either side of the fireplace lead to a light-filled sunroom/family room that features a skylight, vaulted ceiling, and access to a tiled-floor mudroom leading to the back patio. To accommodate large gatherings or holiday dinners, the formal dining room offers that desired space. Additional prep space and storage can be found in the butler’s pantry, which separates the dining room and kitchen and features an original floor-to-ceiling built-in as well as a double-doored pantry with custom shelving. The cozy eat-in kitchen has plenty of neutral cabinetry and access to the back patio. An updated powder room completes the first floor. Up the recently refinished hardwood staircase, you’ll find the roomy master bedroom with three closets and two additional bright bedrooms. The second-floor bathroom is newly renovated with marble floor and vanity, crown molding, and chrome fixtures. The second floor also offers a dream laundry room that is spacious and light-filled with built-in cabinetry and stainless steel laundry sink with sea glass countertop. Ascending to the airy third level, you will find a bedroom equivalent to the master, a room currently used as an office, and another renovated bathroom with a white subway-tiled shower with bench seat, pedestal sink, built-in storage, and radiant heat floor. A large hall storage closet as well as a storage room complete this level, which could become a full master suite. Outside, from your expansive flagstone patio, you can admire your own private backyard oasis with stone retaining walls, mature landscaping, and blue stone steps. The detached 2-car garage has all new siding, windows, garage door, and exterior lights. The unfinished basement includes a laundry sink, updated water heater, sump pump with water-powered back-up, and 200-amp electric service. In the award-winning Abington school district, this home is two blocks from Highland Elementary and conveniently located within easy walking distance to Abington Jefferson hospital, shopping, and restaurants and easily accessible to 611, the turnpike, and multiple regional rail stations.
