MARLA SCHECHTER

Description

Nestled on a serene 0.69-acre wooded lot in the highly regarded Marple Newtown School District, this spacious and meticulously maintained colonial offers the perfect blend of elegance, efficiency, and everyday comfort. Located on a quiet street and surrounded by mature trees, the curb appeal is matched only by the thoughtfully designed interior and extensive list of upgrades. The exterior is equally impressive, with low-maintenance vinyl siding, a stone-accented front elevation, vinyl shutters, and an asphalt shingle roof with ridge vent. A concrete walkway leads to the covered front entry. Out back, a Trex composite deck with integrated railing lights and a gated staircase overlooks a custom hardscape with pavers, a stone retaining wall, built-in fire pit, recessed lighting, and two ceiling fans. A drainage system channels runoff to an underground pipe leading to a creek. The backyard also features a deluxe playset with clubhouse, slide, swings, climbing wall, and monkey bars. Inside, you're welcomed by 9-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and natural light throughout the main level. The formal dining room features a chandelier, while a butler’s pantry with wet bar and marble/glass backsplash connects to the gourmet kitchen—complete with soft-close maple cabinetry, granite countertops, large island with seating, stainless steel appliances, upgraded Moen faucet, undermount sink, and built-in trash/recycling drawer. Pendant lights and recessed LED lighting keep the space bright, and a sliding glass door leads to the deck. The adjacent family room offers a wall of windows with wooded views, a gas fireplace with black marble surround, and a ceiling fan. A powder room, coat closet, and mudroom with garage access round out the first floor. Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with double-door entry and two walk-in closets with Closet by Design custom systems—featuring built-in drawers, shelves, jewelry and tie storage, and more. The en-suite bath includes dual vanities, a soaking tub, large glass-enclosed shower, private water closet, and linen closet. Three additional bedrooms each offer a unique closet layout and are served by a hall bath with dual sinks, separate tub/toilet room, and an oversized linen closet. A laundry room with LG front-load washer and dryer completes the level. The full walk-out basement includes 9-foot poured concrete walls, sliding doors to the patio, rough-in plumbing for a future bath, a sump pump, and under-slab drainage. The unfinished attic is accessible via pull-down stairs from the primary closet. Efficient and secure, the home features central air with new condenser (2025), a 200-amp panel, gas water heater (2022), PEX plumbing, in-home fire sprinkler system, hardwired smoke alarms, and solar panels with in/out metering and SREC eligibility. Tech upgrades include Xfinity cameras (front and rear), motion sensors, and wiring for a Comcast-compatible alarm system. The attached two-car garage includes overhead storage, a smart Wi-Fi opener, and keypad entry. Lastly, to allay any further possible buyer concerns, the sellers are including a comprehensive 1-year home warranty for total peace of mind. Schedule your tour TODAY, this one won't last.
