    What's special

    Thought sub-3% interest rates were gone forever? Think again! ***This home has an assumable mortgage with a 2.75% INTEREST RATE and a $235,000 balance. Reach out to learn more about how you can take advantage of this rare opportunity and SAVE! Looking for that unique home that stands out from the rest? This updated, two-story stone bungalow in Elkins Park may be just the ONE! 7219 Chestnut Avenue has the charm you've been dreaming about in your next home with all the modern conveniences as well. A sprawling and inviting front porch is the first thing you'll notice. Imagine relaxing here after a long day at work or starting your day with coffee, enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature around you. The front yard is surrounded by hedges offering a bit of privacy as you enjoy your outdoor retreat. As you enter the home, you step into the living room, anchored by a large stone fireplace with gas insert and featuring hardwood floors, deep window sills and a pair of classic leaded glass windows. Craftsman style trimwork surrounds the entryway into the formal dining room where a pair of large windows allow sunlight to flood the space. The eat-in kitchen had been expanded by a previous owner --providing plenty of storage and counter space to prepare meals. Stainless steel appliances, granite counters and stone backsplash complete the updated kitchen. Stairs from both the living room and the kitchen combine into one staircase leading to the second floor. There you will find three good-sized bedrooms with walk-in closets in each room -an unusual feature in homes of this age. The full bathroom offers a tub and shower combo, pedestal sink and large closet. You'll find a second full bathroom in the finished lower level that includes a tiled shower stall with rain shower head. The lower level also provides plenty of extra space to use as a family room, play room, home office or home gym. You'll find the laundry facilities and extra storage space on this level as well. The private backyard has been recently regraded and is ready for gardening, your dogs, a playset or whatever you may desire. The roof was installed four years ago and has a 50 year warranty that's transferrable to a new owner. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better...there's a detached two-car garage offering extra space to store your cars, lawn mower, bikes and other outdoor essentials. A pathway from the garage leads to the side entrance of the house, providing a convenient way to carry in groceries without climbing the front steps. This home is conveniently located close to shopping and dining options in Elkins Park, Wyncote, Jenkintown and Philadelphia. It is also a 6-minute walk to the Melrose Park regional rail stop that will drop you off in Center City in 22 minutes and offers direct service to and from the airport. This home is truly one-of-a-kind. Don't miss an opportunity to call if your own. Schedule your showing today.
