1147 McKelvey Lane is a lovely Blue Bell home boasting over 3,000 square feet on more than a half acre in sought after Wissahickon School District. If you are familiar with the homes in the neighborhood, you will immediately notice how much more living space 1147 has to offer. Not only is there a sunroom addition, but also a master suite addition, and both the kitchen and family room were bumped out and enlarged. The scale of the rooms is very comfortable for everyday living and fantastic for entertaining. Other highlights include a great floorplan and flow, tons of natural light, hardwood flooring, and updated kitchen and baths. Greeting you is a charming front porch and inside you will find a foyer with slate floor, coat closet and views into several rooms of the house. To your left, you will find a spacious living room boasting tons of natural light, wood burning fireplace, hardwood flooring and French doors that lead into the sunroom. The sunroom is a four season, climate controlled living space, that truly brings the outdoors in. You will be pleased to see that the dining room is nicely sized and will easily accommodate large gatherings. Through the dining room is an absolutely gorgeous kitchen. The kitchen was very thoughtfully renovated and beautiful finishes were selected, including ceiling height cherry cabinetry with crown molding, granite countertops, a tasteful backsplash, stainless steel appliances, under-mount sink, under cabinet ~task~ lighting, and more. There is an abundance of both storage space and counter space, as well as, an area for a table and chairs and bar seating. There is access from the kitchen to the outdoor living area, ideal for grilling and al fresco dining. The kitchen overlooks the cozy family room complete with a second wood burning fireplace. The family room offers access to the laundry room, powder room, and an additional room currently being used as a relaxing retreat. The hot tub will be removed prior to settlement and this space would then make a great office or playroom. Upstairs you will find a large master suite complete with sitting room, ensuite bath, and dual closets (one of which is a walk in). On the opposite side of the second floor is a spacious junior suite which would also be a great guest bedroom, as it offers its own private bathroom. Two additional bedrooms and an updated hall bath round out the second floor. Down below, the basement offers plenty of space for storage. If you enjoy spending time outside, then you will love the outdoor living space. There is a large paver patio off the back of the house with plenty of space for multiple seating and dining areas, as well as a fenced-in garden, play area, and beautiful landscaping (just wait until Spring!). The chickens have found a new home, but should you be so inclined, there is a fenced off area behind the garage that recently housed several feathered friends. There are many native plantings, fruit trees, and berry bushes; truly a gardeners delight. The driveway offers space for several cars and there is also a large garage that allows parking for two cars as well as tons of space for lawn equipment, storage, etc. The home is located in a quiet neighborhood in Wissahickon School District, close to great shopping and grocery stores, and major routes of transportation. 1147 McKelvey is one that you do not want to miss! 2019-03-26
