Description

Hello! Showings Start Saturday, May 24. Public Open House, Saturday, May 24, 11:00 am to 1:00 pm!! Welcome to 6 Washington Avenue in East Norriton Township, a gorgeous and elegant stone, Dutch Colonial-style home nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of the sought-after Washington Square neighborhood in East Norriton Township! This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers a perfect blend of classic charm and modern updates! Step inside the Foyer from the covered front porch to find a sun-drenched front Living Room with freshly painted walls and ceiling (2025), and a grand, timeless stone fireplace (gas) that invites you to relax and unwind. Step through the Living Room and enjoy the bright and serene Sunroom – a great work-from-home space, a perfect homework zone, studio, or a creative retreat. The formal Dining Room provides ample space for family dinners and holiday meals and connects to a versatile bonus space that has most-recently been used as a pantry which then leads to the Kitchen. The pantry space could be repurposed or integrated into an enlarged Kitchen. Just off the Kitchen is a spacious Family Room designed for connection – whether it’s movie night, game night, or simply unwinding together. From the Family Room, step right out onto a fabulous wrap-around deck that flows seamlessly into a large, level back yard – perfect for entertaining, playtime, gardening, pets or soaking in the outdoors! Upstairs, the primary bedroom features an oversized walk-in closet (which could be turned into a 4th bedroom or nursery), while two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for family or guests. A hall bath completes the second floor. Heading to the basement, a portion of it has been finished and updated with laminate flooring (2025), providing even more space for a home gym, playroom, or office. A Bilco door leads to the back yard. Additional home highlights include a new water heater (2025), newer dishwasher (2024), newer washing machine (2021), central air, and fabulous hardwood floors throughout most of the home. You’ll also appreciate the abundant storage options, including the unfinished portions of the basement, a floored walk-up attic, and detached two-car garage with an excellent attached space – most-recently used as a super-convenient home gym. A spacious driveway fits up to 5 cars. Situated in a prime location and welcoming community with its own Facebook Group (called, Washington Square Neighborhood) so you can keep up with neighbors and events which take place throughout the year, 6 Washington Avenue offers the ideal combination of charm, comfort, space, and convenience. This wonderful home is just minutes from many excellent local casual restaurants (Capone’s, Palermo’s Pizza, Blue Fin Sushi, Pho Thai Nam and Roots, to name a few!), great shopping, 8 Township parks and Norristown Farm Park, and recreation, like Our Town Bowling Alley, the Schuylkill River Trail, and the Elmwood Park Zoo. Major commuter routes like Rt. 202, Germantown Pike and the PA Turnpike are close by, and it’s appr. a 10-minute car ride to two different SEPTA Regional Rail lines (Doylestown and Norristown) making it an easy commute to Center City, Philadelphia. Less than 2 miles away is Jefferson Einstein Montgomery Hospital, and you’re minutes away from more terrific shopping and restaurants in Plymouth Meeting, Blue Bell and Ambler. Please Note that access from Dekalb Pike has been closed off and a sound wall system is being installed, making Washington Avenue a ‘no thru traffic’ street! This move-in-ready home is waiting for you! Don’t miss the opportunity to make 6 Washington Avenue your own—schedule your showing today!

The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
