Nestled in the heart of Jenkintown Manor, this breathtaking split-level home boasts lush and professionally landscaped grounds, with specimen plantings to take your breath away! From the moment you arrive at the house, the curb appeal instantly impresses. A flagstone walkway leads to a double door under a lovely covered front porch. You enter the home into a stunning foyer, with a custom terra cotta floor and coat closet. Make your way into a large and well-appointed living room with a front facing bay window. Adjacent is a large study/office space accented by a stone-surround gas fireplace, a powder room and wet bar. Hardwood floors are throughout the entire first floor, aside from the foyer. The formal dining room offers discreet built-in storage and leads into the handsome family room addition, the cornerstone of the home, where family and friends gather. This room is accented by a cathedral ceiling with exposed beams and a bricked second gas fireplace. The updated eat-in kitchen enhances the family room space. Granite counters, plentiful cabinetry including custom pull-out storage, built-in Sub Zero refrigerator, Dacor double oven and microwave all contribute to making this a special kitchen. The great room leads out to a very private large deck, with a walkway to the in-ground heated pool area, yet another gathering place for fun and relaxation. Heading back inside and upstairs, you'll find a very spacious and beautiful master bedroom with custom built-in storage and an updated en-suite bathroom with steam shower and whirlpool tub. Next to this bedroom is a magnificently equipped walk-in room sized closet, that was specifically designed to easily convert back into the second bedroom.
