Some houses simply have a magical feeling you can’t describe, one where you twist the knob and the walls immediately turn into a home. Welcome to 1401 N 40th Street. Set on a corner lot in a rare, old-fashioned neighborhood where neighbors know your name and kids still ride their bikes down the street, this 3,200 sq ft contemporary has been lovingly brought back to life and is ready for its next chapter. As soon as you step inside, you’ll feel enveloped by the natural sunlight that pours through oversized windows in every room, setting the original oak hardwood floors aglow. Custom window treatments frame the views, and skylights carry the brightness deeper into the home. The oversized living room is tucked away on one side of the home, offering the warmth of a wood-burning fireplace flanked by beautiful built-in bookcases, while the expansive family room sits just off the kitchen and is perfect for entertaining. The kitchen shines with brand-new stainless steel appliances and opens to the dining room, where a private patio invites morning coffee and summer dinners outdoors. Upstairs, four very spacious bedrooms await, including a primary ensuite and a second full bath with double sinks and a deep soaking tub, offering plenty of comfort and room for everyone, including overnight guests. From the family room, step outside to nearly half an acre of flat, open yard, with space to run, play, garden, and host gatherings large and small. On the lower level, a separate movie room, finished with new flooring, is ready for movie nights, game days, and sleepovers. The oversized heated garage is a dream, complete with a workbench alcove, its own half bath, and a generous storage room. This move-in-ready home also features a new roof, new skylights, and owned solar panels that stay with the home and significantly lower utility costs, along with newly installed mini-splits offering individually zoned climate control in every room. Located in the highly sought-after Parkland School District, this rare find in Springhouse Farms offers two parks within walking distance and is just minutes from major highways, Wegmans, shopping, the public library, and recreation. It’s that rare combination of everyday convenience and old-fashioned neighborhood charm. Every room holds a special memory, and is awaiting the next family to create their own. As you walk through this immaculately maintained home, imagine your first morning here, your next birthday celebration and holiday morning, dancing in the kitchen cooking for your loved ones or quiet evenings unwinding by the fireplace. This home has so much love left to give, and it’s ready to become the backdrop for your story. Welcome home, to 1401 N 40th Street.
