7 Douglas Street, Ambler
Longing for a house with old world charm and character with an open floorplan, but think that it doesn’t exist? It rarely does, but today is your lucky day! Tucked away on a quiet street in the Ambler section of Upper Dublin, you will find 7 Douglas, a twin home that perfectly marries details true to the era in which the home was built with modern day design that appeals to the way that we live today.
7 Douglas boasts great curb appeal, including a beautiful stone exterior and charming front porch.
Inside you will be wowed by the open concept (which is very hard to find in a home like this), high ceilings, deep windowsills, recessed lighting, hardwood flooring, and abundance of natural light. This is the layout that you are looking for, one clean line of sight from the front door all the way into the kitchen. The newer hardwood flooring is consistent throughout the entire first floor, beautifully tying all three rooms together. The living room and dining room are both nicely sized offering plenty of room for a big, comfy sofa and a dining table large enough to host your friends and family.
Beyond the dining room, you’ll find the kitchen which features crisp white cabinetry, butcher block countertops, matching appliances, a fantastic island that serves as both great prep and storage space, and the ever-important window over the sink. There is also access to the rear deck and yard from the kitchen. Be sure to take note of the little details like the transom windows above the front and back doors, allowing for a cross breeze without opening the doors. Also, there is wiring in place for surround sound and both the cable and electric for your TV is already in place for a wall mount, so no need to run wires or hide any cords!
Upstairs, you will find three bright bedrooms, all boasting newer hardwood flooring. The master bedroom is spacious and features dual closets complete with builtin organization. The bathroom is nicely appointed and there is also a large hall linen/storage closet.
Down below, you will be pleased to see that this is not your average 100 year old basement. It is bright and spotless with room for play, plenty of storage space, and the laundry area. The washer and dryer were very recently purchased and are included.
Outside, you will love the spacious deck off the kitchen which steps down into a private, fenced-in back yard with raised bed and storage shed. Along the side of the house, there is a convenient walkway that leads to a gate providing access to the front of the house. This is also the perfect area for storing trash cans, out of sight, yet easy to access.
Out front, you will easily find parking and if you’re entertaining, there is plenty of extra parking in the parking lot at the end of the block. This parking lot is for Sheeleigh Park, a cute neighborhood park offering play equipment and an open field across the street.
7 Douglas is located just outside of Ambler Borough, offering you the benefit of being able to walk into downtown Ambler AND take advantage of Upper Dublin schools. The location is a commuters dream, as you are minutes from two train stations and route 309, which leads to all major routes of transportation.
This home is in absolute move-in condition allowing you to unpack and start living your life in this wonderful town where you are able to walk to incredible restaurants, theaters, shopping, annual festivals, Weaver’s Way grocery store, and so much more!
7 Douglas will not last long, come fall in love today! For more information or a private showing, contact me, Allison Wolf. 215-704-9888 | [email protected]
