Description

Nestled in the heart of Jenkintown Manor, 247 Meetinghouse Road is a stately English Tudor that blends classic architectural charm with thoughtful, high-quality updates throughout. This 5-bedroom, 3 full/2 half bath residence offers over 4,300 square feet of beautifully maintained living space, including a sunlit living room with wood-burning fireplace, an exquisite marble-floored sunroom with custom built-ins, and a formal dining room with fireplace and French doors that open to the private rear patio and pool. Anchored by a classic stone façade and steeply pitched rooflines, the home’s exterior was freshly painted in 2024 and enhanced with updated landscaping and new hardscaping. Mature trees surround the property, creating a private, picturesque setting. At the heart of the backyard is a refinished in-ground pool with a new heater and safety fence. The kitchen has been tastefully refreshed with radiant heat floors, updated cabinetry, new stainless appliances and connects to a cozy wine room with its own gas fireplace. Upstairs, you'll find five spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with remodeled ensuite bath. A fifth bedroom features an ensuite bath and walk-in closet, ideal for guests or a home office. Laundry has been conveniently added to the second floor with new appliances. Modern touches continue throughout: knob and tube wiring has been fully removed and a new HVAC and heating system installed. Every room benefits from fresh paint, wood floor repairs, and careful craftsmanship including updated spindles on the staircase baluster. Even the basement has been reimagined, with a repaired staircase, new drywall, and pipe upgrades. Located in the award-winning Abington School District and just moments from the Abington Art Center, scenic trails, tennis courts, and the charming shops and cafés of downtown Jenkintown, this is a home that not only honors its architectural roots but embraces a modern lifestyle. Just minutes away from the Jenkintown train station, the location provides easy access to Center City Philadelphia and Manhattan. 247 Meetinghouse Road is more than a house; it’s a thoughtfully curated residence, lovingly updated and ready to be the setting for your next chapter. Welcome home.
