Timeless elegance in Chesney Downs, in the desirable Springfield Township School District. Lovingly cared for by only its second owners since 1971, this stone-front colonial on a tree-lined street is ready for its next chapter. It pairs classic architecture with the comforts that matter. Original hardwood floors grace the living room, dining room and all four bedrooms. A brick fireplace anchors the living room, and the formal dining room, with chair rail and a chandelier, is made for gatherings. The kitchen has white shaker cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, stainless appliances including a gas range, and an eat-in area. A powder room completes the first floor. Upstairs are four bedrooms and an updated full bath with a tiled, glass-enclosed shower. A floored attic offers generous storage. Outside, the backyard has a patio with a retractable awning, framed by hydrangeas and mature trees. An attached one-car garage with interior access adds everyday convenience. The home has been meticulously maintained, the HVAC was installed in 2025 and the water heater in 2026. The spacious basement, with a French drain and sump pump, could be finished for additional living space. The home is within walking distance to the new Enfield Elementary School and James A. Cisco Park, which features a brand-new playground, playing fields, fishing at Hillcrest Pond, and is home to many free community events. Enjoy the best of both worlds—a peaceful neighborhood with easy access to Chestnut Hill, Route 309, the PA Turnpike, and Center City Philadelphia. You'll also love being close to Wissahickon Valley Park, the Morris Arboretum, and shopping and dining in nearby Flourtown. Come see why so many people fall in love with Chesney Downs—a welcoming community known for its annual block and holiday parties and as one of Erdenheim's favorite trick-or-treat destinations!
