A lovely brick colonial home with three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms is available for sale in Glenside, writes Paul Jablow for The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Located on a tree-lined street in the Northwoods neighborhood, this beautiful residence was built in 1939 and has been lovingly maintained by its current owners for 21 years.

The home welcomes you with the cozy living room with marble fireplace, hardwood floors, and attractive built-ins. The adjacent full-size dining room also has hardwood floors and access to the screened-in side porch.

The fabulous eat-in kitchen boasts a large island, granite countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances.

All three of the bedrooms are on the second floor, along with a full bath. Meanwhile, the lower level is home to a family room with an adjacent laundry area.

The property is also home to a flagstone patio, backyard storage shed, and a garage with inside entry and storage space.

As a bonus, the home is a short walk from the North Hills regional rail station, close to shops and the excellent restaurants of Ambler, Chestnut Hill, and Keswick Village.
