Peaceful Ambler Area Retreat
Ambler is a sought after area for many reasons, one of them being the charming downtown area; Main Street, USA, at it’s finest. Great restaurants, shops, theaters and more, all contained within a few blocks, surrounded by a wonderful, close knit community. 1120 Hagues Mill Road is NOT your average Ambler area home! While this home offers easy access to all that Ambler has to offer, the setting is a bit different than your typical Ambler home, as the beautiful, wooded property truly feels like a mountain retreat. It is completely manageable at under an acre, but feels like like so much more. The home is set back from the road and the rear yard is peaceful and private (except when the little ones are zip lining and the chickens are on the loose!), think luxury camping trip.
The home itself is just as special as the setting, as one of the owners is an interior designer extraordinaire who has been featured on HGTV, FOX 29 and Country Living magazine. She has taken this spacious split level home and made it sing! Pictures don’t do it justice, you need to see the home to truly appreciate the eye for detail and unique characteristics. The house offers great space and a versatile floor plan, so you can really get creative. Currently, the spacious living room is used as the dining room, which is great for entertaining and large get togethers. The space offers hardwood floors, wonderful custom details and a fireplace with a rustic wood mantle. The dining room opens up into the sitting room adjacent to the kitchen and breakfast bar. This is a fabulous use of space, as one can be working in the renovated kitchen, while carrying on conversation with those in the cozy sitting area. Working in this kitchen is a dream, it has a great flow & top notch amenities; custom cabinetry, copper farm sink, beautiful counters, and fun chalkboard. Sharing this wonderful, conversational space, is a screened in porch with french doors, custom wood cathedral ceiling with sky lights and ceiling fan.
A more casual family room is located on the lower level complete with custom builtins, a hip bar area, and outside access. Access to the oversized laundry room and updated powder room can be found here, as well. Upstairs you will find two suites! The second floor offers a wonderful junior suite, two nicely sized bedrooms, all with ceiling fans, and shared hall bath. This floor is currently carpeted, but the same lovely hardwoods that you see downstairs are hiding beneath. A short flight of stairs leads to the very spacious fourth bedroom offering a great little nook, perfect for a desk with a view. The master suite is on a floor of its own, complete with a huge bath, cedar closet, exposed beams, custom stylish wainscoting, window nook and ceiling fan. This home also offers a 2 car garage and full basement, perfect for a work shop and storage.
Being just one block outside of the borough, this home offers the benefits of living in Ambler, but is in acclaimed Upper Dublin School District. For those who need to commute, the location is ideal, as it is just minutes to all major routes of travel and one mile from the Ambler train station.
Truly a special home and a wonderful opportunity, all that is missing is you!
5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 4,000+ square feet, all for $450,000. Yes, you read that right.
