LINDA MCKINNON

Description

Life is complicated! Home, work and school have become intertwined and more and more centered on your home address. Sometimes we just need more space, more rooms, to make it all work. If that describes your life, this might be just the home for you. 5 bedrooms 2.5 baths and 3000 square feet of above grade living space. The walkout finished basement has another 1000 square feet of flexible use space. When searching for a home, finding the right neighborhood is a huge part of the equation. Cinnamon Drive is part of "not too large" Upper Dublin neighborhood. Roughly 50 homes, carved out of the thick wooded land that makes up Mondauk Park. Friendly and fun, if you are so inclined you could quickly know the names of most of the neighbors. The Halloween "trunk or treat" event is fun for kids and adults. The book club to expand your mind or waffle ice cream truck visits to expand your waistline. No worries though, access to the Township Trails is right on Cinnamon to jog, walk, cycle or exercise Fido. Houses don't turn over quickly here, another sign of a great location. 1374 Cinnamon backs up to wooded Township land with a small stream running through it. From Spring thru Fall the houses on the next street over disappear from view. This home has curb appeal galore. The main house is fully brick faced. Pull up to the curb and you can't help but be impressed by the display of perennial flowers. If you have a green thumb (or would like to develop one), this is the house for you. Enjoy your very own mini "farm to table" setup. A large fruit and vegetable garden is located at the bottom of the property, surrounded by a tall fence so you can live in harmony with your antlered neighbors. A 24 by 14 raised deck allows you to relax and take in the beautiful backyard vistas. Add a few potted plants and enjoy watching humming birds while sitting at your kitchen table. The Main level of the house has 3/4 inch solid oak hardwood floors running through the Living Room, Dining Room, Family Room and Kitchen. The remodeled Kitchen has natural cherry cabinets, black appliances, tile backsplash and granite counters. A large pantry makes storage a breeze. The 5 burner gas stove with high powered Zephyr Hood (exhausts to outside) can handle any style cuisine. The Family Room has built-ins that surround a gas Fireplace. The first floor Laundry and Powder Room save you steps throughout the day. The Second Floor features an Owner's Suite with an Ensuite Bath and a walk-in closet. Four other Bedrooms and a Hall Bath complete the picture. Flooring is a combination of laminate plank and carpet. Both Bathrooms are ceramic tile with double vanities. The Finished Basement area has a huge "Great Room" (33 x 25) with built-ins and an unusual but very attractive wall finish. Solid wood, 12 inch boards laid on a diagonal. This is not your typical paneled basement rec room. High efficiency gas heat, replacement windows and central air keep the home comfortable year round. Upper Dublin Schools are a big part of the draw and Fort Washington Elementary is a fan favorite. A short hop to 309 and the PA Turnpike. Just a .3 mile walk to Mondauk Common, one the Townships most popular active parks (Playground, Fitness Loop, Ball Fields, Picnic Area). The local restaurant and shopping options are plentiful. Add this home to your next tour. Stay tuned for more photos!
