Description

2171 Kenmore invites you home. Originally serving as the parsonage for the neighboring church, this 5-bedroom home, framed by energy-efficient solar panels and owner-curated gardens, proudly sits on a corner lot in one of Abington’s most beloved neighborhoods. Step inside through one of two front entrances and be greeted by sunlit rooms filled with warmth, greenery, and character. The main level features a traditional layout with original hardwood floors, a signature wood-burning fireplace in the living room, a formal dining room, a functional kitchen with yard access, and a conveniently located powder room. One of the standout features is the spacious 400-square-foot recreation room addition—an ideal flex space for both relaxing and entertaining. Currently outfitted with a pool table, this versatile room offers endless possibilities—from game nights to movie marathons, or whatever best fits your lifestyle. Nestled between the two living areas, you'll find a mudroom with custom built-in cubbies, thoughtfully designed to keep coats, shoes, backpacks, and everyday essentials organized and out of sight. The second level offers three large bedrooms and a full bathroom, with the primary bedroom featuring its own powder room. The third floor adds two extra bedrooms and a second full bathroom, ideal for guests, home offices, or hobbies The full basement—with dedicated laundry and workshop areas—and the detached garage, complete with a bump-out and second level, both provide ample storage and additional space. Located just steps from Keswick Village—well-known for its annual 4th of July parade, small-town charm, great local restaurants, and the historic Keswick Theatre— 2171 Kenmore Avenue is more than a place to live; it’s a place to feel at home. ***OPEN HOUSE, Sunday, 6/22 from 12-3 p.m.***
