7703 Elm Ave

Quaint Cape Cod single on a One-Way Street in coveted Wyndmoor neighborhood. The previous owner was an architect leaving his mark by blending clean European/Scandinavian Design with rustic recycled weathered wood that are present inside and out. Starting with the lovely front entry portico to protect you from the rain as you sit at the built-in bench to pull on your boots, through to the lovely newer kitchen and family room addition, on out to the rear deck that is partially covered and protected from the wind and prying eyes. Near the rear of the yard beyond the stacked stone, walled fire pit, you will find the cool 2 story Pole Barn also built with recycled old timbers and weathered wood. Upon entering the home you are greeted by beautiful oak floors that were just refinished for you. The LR spans the width of the house with 3 large windows flooding the room with natural light. There's a wood banister at one end leading to the second floor and a convenient powder room at the bottom of the stairs. Beyond the LR is the open plan kitchen with center island cooktop, smartly European in design with an adjacent dining area surrounded with stylish shelves to display your treasures. The expansive stone counters, SS appliances (including dishwasher and disposal) create a very functional, hip space to prepare your family meals. Beyond the kitchen is your family room that also spans the width of the house with windows on 3 sides including a bay window overlooking the deck and slider out to that "outdoor" room. Making your way to the second floor you will find 3 very large BRs each with windows on 2 exposures and the spacious beautify designed bathroom. There is a pull-down ladder for access to the attic space where the A/C for the 2nd Fl is located as well as lots of extra storage. In the lower level you will find a finished room great for an office, playroom or sewing room. The laundry, mechanicals and more storage are also found on this level. But wait there's more, adjacent to the house on the right is the Bonus Room with a separate entry that probably started as a garage then morphed into an artist studio then was transformed yet again into a treatment room for the healing arts. It has so many possibilities there's room for everyone here! Off street parking for 2 cars on the pervious surface in front, a sweet fenced in front yard and a large fenced in back yard with the Barn make up this large lot. The house is across the street from Mermaid Park, walking distance to Wyndmoor Village with shopping, restaurants and public transit. It's a short hop to Chestnut Hill with more shopping, restaurants and 2 trains into Center City. It's also close to Flourtown, Glenside, Rt 309 and all points beyond. This one is going to go really fast so make you appointment now. Showings will start with the Open House Sun 4/30 at 1-3.
