526 Argyle Road is a special place to call home, lovingly maintained and cared for by the current owner for 56 years. Only the second owner since its construction in 1943, this charming stone residence reflects decades of thoughtful care and showcases the enduring craftsmanship and character that are so difficult to find today. Located in the highly desirable Drexel Park neighborhood, residents enjoy holiday celebrations and community gatherings for all ages. This solid stone Cape Cod style home has been thoughtfully expanded over the years to offer multiple main level bonus spaces and a fully finished basement. The property is beautifully landscaped with mature, colorful plantings, while the newly sealed and expanded driveway provides ample off street parking. A flagstone walkway that was recently re-grouted and seal-coated, leads to the front door and enhances the home's curb appeal. Notable features include central air, gas forced hot air heat, a newer roof (approximately 2017), a kitchen expansion into the former garage area completed in 2001, 200 amp electrical service, and an HVAC system that is approximately 10 years old. According to the longtime owner, beautiful hardwood floors remain preserved beneath carpeting that has covered them for decades. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the charm of both the home and its setting. Colorful trees and shrubs line the flagstone walkway leading to the front entrance. Inside, a welcoming foyer is flanked by a spacious formal living room with replacement windows and a fireplace, a bright main level sunroom, and a formal dining room. The kitchen offers Corian countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a pantry. In 2001, the owners further expanded the home by converting the garage into a 19 x 11 bonus room that flows seamlessly from the kitchen. This versatile space is ideal as a family room, playroom, television room, or additional dining area and features deep window sills, a ceiling fan, hardwood flooring and a 1200-watt baseboard electric heater. A convenient powder room and glass-paneled door, providing access to the level rear yard, complete the main level. The second floor offers three generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious 20 x 17 primary bedroom filled with natural light and featuring a neutral wall color and a ceiling fan. The hall bathroom includes a vanity and tub shower combination. A hallway linen closet and charming window bench provide additional storage and character. The fully finished basement adds another level of living space and flexibility. Whether used as a home office, gym, playroom, or family room, this area offers endless possibilities. A French drain and sump pump provide added peace of mind. The lot, measuring 84 x 100, is larger than many others in the neighborhood and offers a level backyard perfect for entertaining, gardening, or play. The owner has gone to great lengths to maintain this home over the years, and it is now ready for its next chapter. 526 Argyle Road offers a wonderful opportunity to personalize a well loved home in one of Drexel Hill's most cherished neighborhoods.
