Welcome to 316 E Highland Avenue! This top of the hill classic twin has an inviting front yard that wraps around the side of the home to the back patio, enclosed by a white picket fence. Step up to the sunroom that greets you that can be used as a mudroom or a reading nook. The straight through layout on the first floor allows for a great flow into the living room, dining room with AC split, and kitchen with beautiful soapstone countertops. From the kitchen, you can head down to the finished basement with enough space for relaxing, laundry area, and powder room, or out onto the back deck as an alternate outdoor space. On the second floor, there are three bright bedrooms and a full neutral bathroom. The third floor is host to a perfect perch that you can use as a fourth bedroom or makes a great office. This home is situated uniquely in that the front of the home faces a large yard across the street and beautiful old home, and the home backs to a neighbor's large lot/garden. That makes the location super private and peaceful-ideal! With a garage and off street parking, just pull in and move right in. The alley that the home backs to is magic, a place where community thrives. They host two block parties a year, epic trick or treating, Friendsgiving, an egg hunt, and countless opportunities for connection. Walk to all The Avenue has to offer like the new Char and Stave Whiskey and Coffee, Weaver's Way Coop, Zipf's Candies, Robertsons, Cake, specialty shops, banks, Fresh Market, McNally's, just to name some highlights. Steps away from the Septa regional rail line, it will be hard to miss the train. With close proximity to multiple trailheads, you can be on the Wissahickon trails in minutes and enjoy miles and miles of biking/hiking/running. An excellent location for those seeking walkability, an outdoor lifestyle, and friendly neighbors. Showings begin Thursday, schedule today!
