Property Description
Introducing Mapleview!!! Loved by the same family for over 50 years, this well maintained turn of the (last) century 3-story stone Colonial home will likely provide all the room that you may ever need. It has a gracious & understated curb appeal, complete with a large wrap around front porch and a charming sunroom off the main foyer. The entry foyer is very large and the turn-back staircase is enhanced with a beautiful, original stained glass window. A large coat closet is tucked under the stairs. Pocket doors provide the option for privacy in the living room while the original fireplace (decorative) has a detailed mantel & tiled surround. More pocket doors provide privacy between the living room & the family room, which has another decorative fireplace, a wall of bookshelves and a large bay window looking over the side yard. The dining room has another large closet & another bay window on the other side of the house. The kitchen is placed at the rear of the home & has a picture window with views over the entire rear yard. The powder room & laundry are off the kitchen. A rear porch is beyond the laundry & access to the full (unfinished) basement is also from the kitchen. The home has recently been enhanced with a high-velocity central A/C system for the 1st & 2nd floors while the H/W heater and the gas-fired boiler are 5 years old. All six of the bedrooms are ample in size & there is an abundance of closet storage (unusual for a house of this vintage). The two front bedrooms are connected & one of the two full hall baths is tucked on the west wall. The two rear bedrooms are huge (27' - 28' long) with multiple closets and these 2 bedrooms share a 2nd half-bath facing the rear yard. The 3rd floor has two more large bedrooms, additional attic storage closets and the 2nd full bath. A nicely scaled & level rear yard is the perfect place to play, relax, garden, etc. The detached 2-car garage still retains its original carriage doors and has additional attic storage above. It is "possible" that the assessed SF does not include the 3rd floor. The house is perfectly located to take advantage of the revival of Elkins Park East which includes CreekSide Co-op, Park Plates, Elkins Perk, Alexanders, The Frame House, Open Book and other local establishments. The house is perfectly located half-way between either the Elkins Park or Melrose Park SEPTA stations. Come discover 7606 Spring Avenue, and maybe you'll create generations of memories too!
