851 Elkins Ave

Elkins Park, PA 19027

So much to love! Quaint, Tudor-style charmer on a sought-after tree-lined street! Enter from the sunny, open stone-columned porch into the light-filled first floor and find hardwood floors, high ceilings and classic details. The cheery living room with ceiling fan flows into the elegant dining room which opens to a galley kitchen complete with glass-paned cabinets and breakfast bar. The mudroom right off the kitchen is great for storage and gives easy access to the fenced backyard. Conveniently, the adorable half-bath with white beadboard and a refreshing lemongrass paint hue is right off the dining room. Upstairs are three nicely sized bedrooms with ceiling fans, sunny windows and hardwood floors under the carpeting. The just-painted front main bedroom welcomes you with a calm, neutral tan hue and offers a spacious closet. Down the hall you'll find the full bath is a study in crisp white and includes a jacuzzi bathtub. Up in the spacious walk-up attic you'll find plenty of room for storage, or as some have done on Elkins Avenue, a great space to put in a 4th bedroom. Downstairs, the walk-out, full basement with washer, dryer and double sink awaits your hobbies or conversion into a finished home theatre or rec room. New ProVia replacement windows were installed in 2018 and the house trim as well as the mudroom and garage were painted in November 2024. Outside, the peaceful fenced backyard next to the one-car garage features hydrangea and perennials plus a dogwood tree to shade your late afternoon gatherings with family and friends on the brick patio. Wall Park with its museum, green space, tennis courts and a skate park is walking or rolling distance away. All around 851 Elkins Avenue is a great walking/touring neighborhood with history, gorgeous classic architecture (Lynnewood Hall, the second largest surviving Gilded Age mansion in the US is just around the corner) and nature on view. Just a couple of blocks down the street (on Serpentine) is a summer camp complete with its own pond and tall, majestic trees—you'll think you're in Maine! Convenient to public transportation (including buses and Septa Regional Rail trains to Philadelphia and the airport), Route 611 and Route 309 (to the turnpike). Jenkintown, Glenside and Elkins Park shops and businesses are close by, as is Curtis Arboretum, Jefferson Abington Hospital, Arcadia University and more. This one won't last, so schedule your showing today!
