Description
A SECOND CHANCE AT SOMETHING SPECIAL! Rarely does an opportunity like this present itself once, let alone twice. If you missed 235 N Ridge Avenue the first time, your opportunity has returned! Located in Ambler Borough within WISSAHICKON SCHOOL DISTRICT, this beautifully updated home pairs thoughtful improvements with the energy, charm, and convenience of one of Montgomery County's most vibrant communities. Imagine Saturday mornings at the Ambler Farmers Market, evenings at award-winning restaurants, independent films at the historic Ambler Theater, and a calendar filled with First Fridays and seasonal festivals. Here, the lifestyle extends well beyond your front door. Inside, refinished hardwood floors welcome you into inviting living spaces, including a cozy gas fireplace. The renovated kitchen offers granite countertops, tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, and generous workspace for everyday meals or effortless entertaining. Professionally designed closet systems maximize storage, while ceiling fans and custom window treatments add comfort throughout. The renovated full bathroom features a new tub with a tiled surround. Step outside to discover a standout feature: a remarkably private backyard in the heart of the borough. Mature landscaping creates a peaceful setting for entertaining, gardening, or unwinding outdoors. An oversized garage offers room for a vehicle, tools, hobbies, and storage, while the wide driveway provides ample off-street parking for guests. The finished lower level adds flexible living space and a walk-in pantry. Professional basement waterproofing includes a new sump pit, sump pump, and French drain system. Significant improvements throughout the property include a brand-new air conditioning system installed in 2026, a whole-house generator connected to an expanded gas line, a roof installed in 2018, siding replacing stucco on the main living areas, professionally designed landscaping with raised garden beds, a complete garage door system replacement, and a new hot water heater. These meaningful investments complement the home's move-in-ready appeal. Ambler's restaurants, shops, and community gathering places are part of everyday life. Discover local favorites including Bridget's Steakhouse, Blue Taj, El Limon, Sushi Hatsu, Forest & Main Brewing Company, and Geronimo's Peruvian Cuisine. Nearby Weavers Way Co-op, Giant, Whole Foods Market, and Trader Joe's make daily errands convenient. Parks, athletic courts, the Wissahickon Waterfowl Preserve, and the trails of Four Mills Nature Reserve offer inviting ways to spend time outdoors. Commuters will appreciate Ambler SEPTA Regional Rail Station, approximately 0.7 miles from the home, with service to Center City Philadelphia. Butler Pike, Bethlehem Pike, Route 309, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike connect you to the wider region. Some homes check the boxes. Others change the way you live. With its thoughtful updates, private outdoor retreat, exceptional parking, and coveted Ambler Borough setting within WISSAHICKON SCHOOL DISTRICT, 235 N Ridge Avenue deserves a second look. Don't miss your opportunity this time!
