The family room is a showstopper, boasting cathedral ceilings accented with rustic wood beams. A private library, complete with hardwood floors and built-in bookcases, provides a quiet space for work or reading, and opens to a large patio ideal for entertaining. The unique hot tub room overlooks the yard, creating a spa-like retreat in your own home. The updated kitchen is designed for both style and function, featuring quartz countertops, ample cabinetry, a built-in microwave, stainless steel appliances—including a gas range and refrigerator—and a modern layout that makes cooking a joy. This Elkins Park gem combines comfort, character, and natural beauty in one remarkable property.
