315 KENT RD Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004

Character abounds in this English-cottage-style twin on a tree-lined street. One walks onto the property with a full view of the gardens featuring a wide variety of perennials, shrubs including many azaleas, and trees, including fig, plum and cherry trees. A large, cheerful, wrap-around sun porch welcomes you into the house. The porch is where week-end brunches were a regular three season activity. A handsome, oversize door welcomes you into a living room that features a brick fireplace; an adjoining dining room: both rooms have hardwood floors and oversize windows. An eat-in kitchen with gas cooking, plus a small pantry and a small mud-room/area with a toilet complete the first floor. The second floor has three rooms: a front bedroom with built-in bookcase; a smaller middle room with a pretty bay window overlooking the gardens (perfect as an office, nursery, or dressing room, perhaps); a back bedroom with an entry to a railed porch. A full bathroom completes the second floor. Again, hardwood floors and mostly oversize windows throughout the 2nd floor. Two additional bedrooms plus a storage room (at one time a partial bathroom) complete the third floor. Note the high ceilings, central air conditioning, solid doors, gas heater, original/unpainted woodwork on first two floors, large garden shed, etc. A major bonus is walking distance to the local public elementary and middle schools, nearby trains, shops, restaurants, award-winning public library, The Cynwyd Trail, etc. A backyard shed for storage is in "as is" condition. The house is in need of cosmetic and structural renovations. All items in basement remain with the house. It awaits your TLC.
