Welcome to this beautiful single-family home in the highly sought-after Lynnewood section of Havertown! From the moment you walk up the freshly sealed driveway, you’ll notice the charming front patio and small fish pond, setting the tone for the warmth and character inside. Step through the front door into a bright living and dining area that flows seamlessly into an eat-in kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash and ample cabinetry. The first floor also offers a full bathroom with a newly glazed stall shower, a home office ideal for remote work or hobbies and a cozy den leading to your maintenance-free composite deck that is partially covered and equipped with a mounted TV - perfect for entertaining. Up the recently carpeted staircase, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms, all with ceiling fans, plus an expanded full bath featuring a dual vanity and refreshed stall shower. The second-floor laundry also adds everyday convenience for your household. The finished lower level provides additional living space with newer carpeting, recessed lighting and a separate storage room with an abundance of built-in shelving. There’s a walkout to the backyard, making the basement both practical and easy to enjoy. As mentioned earlier, your trex deck off the den has modern railings and steps leading you to a concrete sitting area with a fire pit to relax on cool evenings in your vinyl, privacy fenced backyard. Other recent updates include: whole house re-wired (2022), all windows & exterior doors (2023), dual-zone AC (2024), roof with 50 year shingles (2025) and Delco Trimlights (2024) to help your house shine through all of the holidays!
