    What's special

    Welcome to 221 Summit Avenue, a beautifully maintained large three-story, six-bedroom, two-bath stone twin located in the heart of Jenkintown Borough. From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch sets the tone and offers a lovely place to sit, relax, and enjoy the charm and strong sense of community that make Jenkintown Borough so special. This home is filled with character and architectural detail throughout. A lovely foyer welcomes you inside and opens to warm, inviting living spaces. The living room features beautiful wood floors, deep windowsills, and a gas-burning fireplace with an intricately detailed wood surround and mantel. The dining room continues the home’s classic style with wide crown moldings, chair rail, wood floors, and a large bay window, and connects to the kitchen through a charming swinging door—perfect for everyday living and gatherings. The renovated kitchen and breakfast room serve as the heart of the home, creating a comfortable space for spending time together and hosting friends. The kitchen offers upgraded cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island, a five-burner cooktop, JennAir full-size double wall ovens, stainless steel appliances, pantry cabinet, built-in microwave with warming drawer, recessed lighting, and under-cabinet lighting. The adjacent breakfast room features a vaulted ceiling, a built-in desk with granite countertops and cabinetry that creates a wonderful family hub or workspace, and a wall of windows overlooking the deck and backyard, filling the space with natural light. The second floor includes a spacious primary bedroom with chair rail and a large bay window creating a lovely seating area, along with two additional well-sized bedrooms. The remodeled hall bath features a marble-topped vanity, tile tub and shower combination, beadboard wainscoting, and tile flooring. A former rear staircase was converted into additional closet space during the kitchen renovation. Many windows throughout the home have been replaced with energy-efficient windows. The third floor offers three additional bedrooms, including a generously sized room with a charming window seat and storage, along with two additional rooms that provide flexibility for use as guest rooms, home offices, hobby spaces, or additional living areas. A renovated hall bath on this level features a tiled walk-in shower and large vanity. Pull-down attic stairs provide additional storage. The partially finished basement includes a cozy family room with a gas insert fireplace, laundry room with utility sink, exterior exit, walk-in storage closet, and additional storage areas. Mechanical highlights include a gas Weil-McLain heater and updated 200-amp electrical service. Outside, a large rear deck just off the kitchen is ideal for grilling, dining, and relaxing, overlooking a private backyard with fencing, mature landscaping, a large storage shed, and a charming koi pond that adds to the peaceful outdoor setting. A private driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles. With excellent condition, abundant storage, high ceilings, and beautifully preserved architectural details, 221 Summit Avenue offers classic charm, thoughtful updates, and a warm, welcoming feel that truly makes it feel like home. Ideally located just one block from the Jenkintown Train Station and only a few blocks from the award-winning Jenkintown School District, this home offers exceptional walkability to downtown shopping, dining, the Hiway Movie Theater, Jenkintown Library, seasonal farmers markets, live music, and community events.
