It's hard to put a finger on what makes this property so special. Located on desirable Hart's Lane in Whitemarsh Township, its place on the earth, certainly, is one piece to the puzzle. Nestled in the charming Miquon neighborhood, this charming Cape Cod residence, built in 1937, has quiet appeal, with its 9' ceilings, two fireplaces, many windows, and extraordinary location. Spanning over 3,400 square feet, there is plenty of room for people and their lives. During the green months of the year, the view from every window is lush vegetation and tall trees. You feel far removed from hustle and bustle of suburban living, and yet you are minutes from the Miquon Commuter Rail Station to Philadelphia. The traditional floor plan clusters the public rooms at one end of the house and the bedrooms in two separate wings. Great floorplan for gatherings and for privacy. The spacious formal dining room sets the stage for memorable gatherings, while the inviting country kitchen, complete with an eat-in area, is perfect for casual meals and morning coffee. The kitchen's built-ins provide both functionality and style, There are two fireplaces, one in the living room and one in the downstairs family room. Natural light pours in through thoughtfully placed windows, that bring the outside in. The main entrance takes you into the living room. Hardwood floors, beautiful stone fireplace, nine-foot ceilings, and plenty of windows create a comfortable and welcoming space. Adjacent to the living room is the beautiful dining room with a doorway that leads directly to the eat-in kitchen. The kitchen has an exterior door to the yard and a stone walkway to the driveway. From the hallway, take a left, through what the current owners use as their library to two bedrooms and a full bath (tiled under the guidance of the famous mosaic artist, Isaiah Zagar.) Continue down the hallway to the primary bedroom, a fourth bedroom, and another full bath. The attic, equipped with a fan, provides extra storage or the potential for future expansion, allowing you to customize the space to suit your lifestyle. The partially finished basement is a versatile area, perfect for a home gym, media room, or additional storage. With a heated floor, outside entrance, and a wood-burning fireplace, it offers endless possibilities for personalization. Outside, the property boasts a generous half-acre lot, providing a serene backdrop for outdoor activities or quiet evenings under the stars. The attached oversized garage and additional driveway parking ensure convenience for you and your guests. The bonus space is a huge shed that was once a stable for horses, but recently has been used as a workspace and storage. This home is not just a residence; it's a sanctuary that embodies a lifestyle of comfort and peace. With its prime location near a commuter rail station and the charm of Miquon, you'll enjoy both tranquility and accessibility.
