Description

137 Avondale Road rings like an address in a Disney Classic and I believe you can find a similar nostalgia as you crest the bend on Avondale. Initially seeing the mature tree lined period colonial homes with neighborhood sidewalks, larger yards for recreation, you will then set your eyes upon the character and charm of the "one" with the front porch. 137 Avondale is a standout on this block because of the beloved All American covered porch. Walk up the paver sidewalk to where your future awaits. There is so much more to fall in love with as you enter HOME! The expanded living room greets you upon entry noting the opened floor plan on this classic West Norriton Colonial. Gorgeous hardwoods are present throughout the main and second floor of the home and compliment the tones in conjunction with the ample natural light throughout the day. As you turn toward the expansive kitchen/dining you'll note an updated half bathroom for guests. You will be drawn back to the kitchen island for a conversation with your agent about how this home "had you at hello”. The granite counters, stainless appliances, gas cooking, and white cabinetry are all reasons for this to be the seamless hosting space upon gatherings. The kitchen gracefully opens into the more formal dining area which grabs natural light mid day. The rear of the home is a favorite for expanded recreation and office space while being filled with warmth during the colder months with an owner's favorite wood burning stove. A more seasonal expansion continues out on the rear patio with roof overhang. This is a great zone to watch over family recreation, bbq, or enjoy a perfect location for a hot tub or sauna. The rear level fenced in yard with shed offers the ideally sized space as you assess your options toward wining this home. The second floor boasts hardwood flooring throughout the sprawling four bedrooms and hallway. Each bedroom features a ceiling fan amenity, spacious closet options, and abundant natural light. The upgraded large hall full bathroom with cathedral ceilings, tile floors, tile tub/shower, and upgraded vanity. A family favorite for the current owners is the amazing finished basement featuring a large family room with wet bar, ample cabinetry, and even its own full bathroom which can assist with house guests for quarters. A separate, more relaxed space exists on the other side of the family room, great for reading or hiding from the day's stress. A 12x12 unfinished mechanical and laundry room completes the basement area, really does maximize this wonderful home's options for space and life. The home features durable Anderson windows throughout as well as a new HVAC in January 2024. Turn your corner to the house with the classic front porch on the block and say "you had me at hello" to 137 Avondale Road, West Norriton Today!
