Welcome to 1242 Gordon Road, a warm and inviting center hall stone Colonial in Jenkintown Manor that's as well cared for as it is charming. As you approach, you'll appreciate the inviting curb appeal, highlighted by a new stamped concrete walkway, manicured landscaping, and a new roof, gutters and driveway completed in 2023. The spacious front porch provides the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day, or catch up with neighbors. Inside, original hardwood floors, deep window sills, built-ins, and other classic details showcase the character of this 1935 home. The traditional center hall floor plan offers generous room sizes throughout, including a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room with a bay window, and a convenient den with built-in shelving and a newly installed sliding glass door creating easy access to the new patio. The custom kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a five-burner gas range, center island, and large pantry, creating a space equally suited for weeknight dinners and entertaining. A powder room and laundry complete the main level. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms. The primary suite features access to a private rooftop deck along with an updated bath finished with a double vanity and Travertine tile floors and shower. One of the home's standout features is the renovated attic loft. Equipped with its own mini-split heating and cooling system, this flexible space can easily serve as a home office, studio, playroom, guest quarters, or whatever best fits your lifestyle. The finished lower level, anchored by a second stone fireplace, provides additional living space for movie nights, game days, workouts, or hobbies. There's additional unfinished space providing ample storage. Outside, you'll find plenty of space to enjoy the warmer months, whether you're hosting friends on the patio, firing up the grill, or playing or gardening in the level backyard. A detached two-car garage provides additional storage and convenience. Located close to from shopping, restaurants, parks, Jefferson Abington Hospital, the Jenkintown-Wyncote train station, and award-winning Abington public schools and Abington Friends School, this home offers the charm of an established neighborhood with easy access to the amenities that make everyday life easier.
