Description

This stunning Colonial offers timeless curb appeal and is perfectly positioned within the highly desirable Chestnut Creek community. A landscaped walkway leads to the welcoming entrance, where the foyer greets you with gleaming hardwood floors that extend throughout much of the main level. To the right, the formal living room is filled with natural light and highlighted by French doors and a shiplap accent wall, currently used as a second home office. To the left, the elegant dining room showcases detailed dental crown molding and custom millwork, creating an ideal setting for both holiday gatherings and formal entertaining. A private home office with wainscoting and crown molding provides a refined space for quiet productivity. At the heart of the home, the spacious family room features soaring ceilings, a fireplace, and expansive windows framing picturesque views of the outdoors. This open-concept design flows seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen, which includes abundant cabinetry, a large walk-in pantry closet, and a center island with seating. Stainless steel appliances include a five-burner gas cooktop and a wine fridge. From here, step outside to the deck designed for year-round enjoyment with both covered and open areas, a ceiling fan, and a fire pit. A mudroom with interior garage access and a powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide comfort for all. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a tray ceiling, a wall of windows, and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, a makeup area, and an oversized shower with dual shower heads. A spacious walk-in closet completes the suite. The finished lower level expands the living space with a full wet bar accented by pendant lighting and seating, a family area ideal for movie nights or recreation, and a full bath that allows flexibility for an au pair or in-law suite. A large unfinished section offers abundant storage and space for a workshop or future customization. The laundry area (sellers moved from mudroom to basement but can be moved back to mudroom with a few adjustments) includes a convenient folding cabinet, and a new hot water heater installed in 2021 provides added peace of mind. Ideally located just minutes from the PA Turnpike, award-winning schools, township parks, shopping, dining, and the local library, this home combines luxury, comfort, and convenience in one of the area’s most sought-after neighborhoods.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
