Description

Welcome to 1649 Thayer Drive in the Wissahickon school district. This beautiful and well maintained split level is located on a quiet, tree lined street where you'll find neighbors out walking their dogs and kids riding their bikes. As you pull into your driveway, you'll notice how much space you have for your vehicles. The covered front porch area complete with ceiling fan is a great way to relax at the end of a day and wave to those strolling by. Enter into the foyer and you're instantly aware of how well this home was cared for. The engineered hardwoods are like new. Turning into the expanded kitchen area, you'll be blown away by the upgraded cabinetry and countertops. The Sub Zero refrigerator is yours to keep those culinary creations chilled until you utilize this great space to whip up the next meal. With a wall cut out giving you access to the bar area below, you can quickly pass those hors d'oeuvres to friends. The dining area is just steps away giving ample room for seating. Moving up stairs, the third level of the house has three bedrooms and a full bath; complete with tub/ shower. While all three bedrooms have closet space, the second bedroom boasts a decent sized walk in closet. As you move up the steps to the final level of the house, you will find the master bedroom. The bathroom was recently refinished with a walk in shower and hexagon tiled floor. The master walk in closet is more like a small room. Bring your imagination in laying out where all your dressers or shelves might go. Moving back to the lower floor of this well laid out design is where the family room is located. This spacious area is partially divided by a wall, giving it the feel of two rooms. Both areas will benefit from the heat of the wood fireplace; making it super cozy for those cold winter nights. The bar area is in a room all to itself and reconnects you visually to the kitchen. Adjacent to the bar, you'll find a powder room, laundry room and a rear entrance to a peaceful back patio. As you walk out back, you'll contemplate the possibilities of your flat yard and the vinyl privacy fencing. You'll also be wondering why you haven't made an offer on the house yet.
