You've never seen an Abington home quite like this! Originally built as an Abington Township firehouse and later moved to its current location, this truly unique home has been transformed into a spacious four bedroom Colonial style residence with 1,864 square feet of living space. The history gives this home a character and sense of space that is hard to find in today's homes. From the enclosed front porch, step into a large entrance parlor featuring high ceilings, an open staircase and ceiling fan. The spacious living room offers beautiful wood floors and a built in bookshelf, while the oversized formal dining room features wood floors, three large windows and plenty of natural light. The kitchen includes a gas range, microwave and recessed lighting and opens to a separate breakfast room with direct access to the rear deck. A first floor full bathroom adds convenience. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a full hall bathroom with stall shower. Outside, the level, fully fenced backyard offers plenty of room for entertaining, gardening or play, with a large storage shed for additional space. The unfinished basement provides laundry and storage and includes new basement steps and an updated electrical system. Additional improvements include a gas heater replaced in 2017, central air installed in 2021, Andersen windows and exterior doors installed throughout in 2021, and new gutters and downspouts. There is a lot to appreciate here, but this is a home that really needs to be seen to appreciate its spacious rooms, high ceilings, natural light and one of a kind character.
