About this home
A classic Colonial thoughtfully updated for modern living, 240 S Lynwood Avenue is set directly across from Grove Park and just minutes from Downtown Glenside and the Glenside train station. A distinctive stone exterior, classic blue shutters, and mature landscaping create an inviting first impression from the moment you arrive.
Inside, the home strikes a wonderful balance between classic charm and modern comfort. The floor plan offers four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms, with generous spaces for everyday living and entertaining. A formal living room and dining room provide elegant gathering spaces, while the family room offers a comfortable place to unwind. Just off the entry from the two-car garage, a mudroom and half bathroom add everyday convenience. The primary suite has been beautifully reimagined with a brand-new luxurious ensuite bathroom (spring 2026), creating a private retreat within the home. A finished basement with egress adds valuable living space, while a dedicated office provides a quiet place to work from home.
The backyard is a true extension of the home. Fully fenced and thoughtfully landscaped, it features a spacious patio, improved drainage, a rebuilt retaining wall, shed, and swing-set platform. It’s a wonderful setting for summer gatherings, morning coffee, or watching the kids and dogs play.
The current owners have made extensive improvements over the years, including a new boiler (2024), whole-house generator (2023), replaced all second-floor windows (2021), attic insulation (2021), finished basement with egress (2022), newer kitchen appliances and flooring (2021), and numerous exterior and infrastructure updates. The result is a home that has been carefully maintained while thoughtfully adapted for modern living.
And the location makes everyday life remarkably easy. Grove Park is right across the street, while Downtown Glenside’s restaurants, stores, coffee shops, community events, and everyday conveniences are all within a short stroll. The Glenside train station is less than a 10-minute walk away, offering an easy connection to Center City and beyond. Glenside Elementary is within walking distance, with Ancillae-Assumpta Academy and St. Luke the Evangelist School also nearby.
Beautifully updated, wonderfully maintained, and surrounded by the best of Glenside, 240 S Lynwood Avenue offers the character of a classic Colonial with the comfort, flexibility, and location for modern living....
