Property Description

A Glenside rancher with room to live. Set well back from the road, this beautifully maintained three-bedroom, two-bath ranch combines comfortable one-floor living with wonderful space and a lush private garden setting. An attractive stone façade introduces an interior with new flooring as well as original hardwood floors throughout the main living areas and tile in both updated bathrooms. The Great Room is exceptionally large and flexible, with plenty of space to create distinct living and dining areas, with the dining end positioned directly off the spacious renovated kitchen. Here, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry and gas cooking make it functional and inviting. On the far side of the house, the Family Room has a character all its own. An original exterior stone wall adds texture and history, while brand-new carpeting and a wall of windows create a comfortable place to gather. Three bedrooms include one with direct backyard access, complementing another entrance from the kitchen. Outside, beautiful landscaping takes center stage. Professionally designed flower gardens line the side yard alongside a pretty privacy fence, with additional gardens near the large stone retaining wall. The backyard is totally private and enveloped in lush greenery, with a covered porch and plenty of room to garden or create additional outdoor living areas. The property has been maintained without pesticides or herbicides since 2015. A large two-car garage and extended driveway provide ample parking. Major improvements include a 2021 roof, gutters and gas heater, spray-foam attic insulation, newer central air and a rebuilt 2025 retaining wall. Glenside’s restaurants, shops, theaters, parks, rail service and commuter routes are all within easy reach.
