Property Description

Why take chances buying a quick flip when you can have a beautiful owner-renovated home with all the same bells and whistles? While an investor may cut corners in areas you can’t see to get that quick sale, this owner took the time to do everything right. The first sign of the unique care taken with this home comes from the gorgeous custom wood canopy over the patio: talk about curb appeal! And gleaming refinished original hardwood floors, recessed lighting and replacement windows extend throughout the air conditioned interior. An oversized archway connects the large living room to the dining area with chair rail, which is super-open to the kitchen, thanks to the two granite breakfast bars. The kitchen is outfitted with all the right stuff: maple Shaker cabinets with crown molding, a full mosaic glass tile backsplash, granite countertops with undermount sink with gooseneck faucet, and stainless steel GE five-burner range with griddle insert and Samsung fridge with bottom freezer. Upstairs is the master bedroom with two large closets; bathroom with whirlpool soaking tub, granite floors and tub surround, dual flush toilet and skylight; plus two more bedrooms. Every room gets great natural light?even the finished basement has a good-sized glass block window. This huge living space includes a full bath, so it could be used as a guest suite, but would be equally good for whatever you need the extra private space for?a media room, home office, gym or playroom. From the basement there’s a back door to the rear driveway. Pennington Road is a nice one-way street in a great Overbrook Park location close to regional rail and City Ave, in a suburban-like setting with nearby golf courses and country clubs. And here’s a bonus: the five wall-mounted TVs will stay with the house.
