Character and charm meet the modern amenities and affordability you crave in this artistically updated stone colonial in a highly sought after Bala location. Easy walks and short drives let you turn this amazing location into a lifestyle! An extended driveway and manicured front yard lead up to your private covered front porch that not only greets you upon entry, but begs you to stay a while. Once inside the charm and abundance of natural light continues. The formal foyer adjoins an oversized living room and den complete with built in bookcases, a bay window filling the room in natural light, and beautiful hardwood floors throughout... all this capped by an oversized gas fireplace with an extended slate hearth. The open floor plan and natural light continue into the warmth and coziness of your dining room. A virtual wall of windows brings the outside in, filling this space with light, cheer, and charm as you dine and relax while looking out onto your private rear patio. Not to be outdone, the renovated and stylish kitchen is flush with upgraded countertops, stainless appliances, and a high-end gas range. All of this in a flowing layout that lets you stay engaged with your family and guests as you prepare. Venture upstairs and you will find your private owner's suite. A wealth of windows keep your personal retreat bright while oversized closets and a separate dressing area keep it practical. Your suite is rounded out with a private bath with stall shower and upgraded amenities. Continue on and you will find two additional spacious and well-lit bedrooms complemented with a charming and upgraded full bath. Head all the way downstairs and you will find a full-sized basement with natural light, high ceilings and plenty of space just waiting to be finished into the bonus room of your dreams. Don't let this opportunity get away as something this charming and affordable in this neighborhood certainly won't last.
