138 S CAROL BOULEVARD, UPPER DARBY, PA 19082

What does LOVE feel like? You'll know immediately when you step into #138! All the "I Want's" and then some! This 122 yo, almost 2300 sq ft , ALL STONE, CH colonial sits pretty on a wide street in the South section of Highland Park on a .22 acre lot (75x130). All the windows have tan trim, for a nice, soft look. Tons of curb appeal, especially due to the mature, lush landscaping of all shapes & sizes, the velvety manicured lawn, mulched flower beds, baskets/pots of flowers & a lovely shade tree in the front. Sit on the columned front porch after dinner & check out the goings' on in the neighborhood. There are 2 painted pews procured from St Laurence Church when they renovated years ago to relax on. A  wrought iron rail adorns the 2 sets of steps. The full view, etched glass storm door & beautifully painted front door w/dentil molding open to the large CH complete with parquet flooring & a coat closet. To the right is the spacious & gracious LR, complete w/a set of 4 front windows w/deep sills, a  non-functional stone FP w/tile hearth , B/I shelving, CM, brass &  glass screen & stained wood mantel. A French door takes you to the enclosed side porch, renovated in 2018, that shows off 14 large windows, 3 classy light fixtures & newer flooring. Because there are some USB outlets and a 220 line, this room could be an office as well. To the left of the CH is the expansive DR. Lots of family dinners took place here, where memories were made by  the Sapienza family! There is a 3-paneled window in front & a single window w/AC on the side. A huge  eat-in kitchen awaits you that fits a large table w/recessed lights overhead for informal dining w/friends and/or family. There is an amazing amount of wooden cabinets, neutrally painted to match the countertops. The side-by side S/S fridge w/icemaker is but 2 years old, the wood floor is a great accent & the windows are newer. Other features: deep soapstone sink, DW, microwave, GE Profile stove, desk area & a BI radiator. Adjacent to the kitchen is the 1st floor PR w/deep sink encased in oak, a matching medicine cabinet, toilet room, linen closet & 2 windows w/wood blinds.  The w/w on the 1st floor is neutral. Now look out to the expansive back yard! Wow! How much fun will you have here? There's a new cement patio at the back wall of the house.. and a covered patio next to the garage/studio. Behind that patio is a shed-like structure for storage.( The stone bar-b-que has not been used in a while, but could prove to be a real add once checked out). Take note of the gated fencing and the very long driveway that could accommodate 6+ cars! The  detached, Dutch-style garage was gutted in 2022 to the tune of $12,000, and was turned into a studio w/insulated sound room & an exercise center! What a neat place for a football party with friends or for your teens to test out some music in the recording booth w/a custom BI desk area and a window that looks out to the rest of the space. This is quite a unique space! It was done so that it could easily be turned back to a garage, if necessary. Do it YOUR way! There is a separate 6-pane, wide ,steel  door w/punch lock entry, a mini split heater/CA unit, 2 accent walls, an internet line from the house's 2nd floor office, lots of outlets, a TV hook-up, a new vinyl floor, raised beam ceiling, & 7 recessed lights--many of these features can be controlled from your phone! Geeze! OK..back to the house. On the 2nd floor are 4 good-sized BR's-3 w/tan w/w & 1 w/parquet vinyl flooring. CF's, windows w/deep sills, an oak hall bath w/mirrors, a tub/shower, lots of counter space, a custom towel rack on the linen closet & another oak cabinet above the toilet. There are new 6-panel doors t/o the 2nd floor. The stairs to the unfinished walk-up attic are in the hallway. What amazing space you'll find here! The potential exists to add more living space here. The basement walls have ben parged, & an epoxy coated  floor. So clean & neat! 1 yo hot wtr htr.1 FREE HOME WARRANTY!
