On the market: A three-bedroom carriage house with a loft in Blue Bell for $649,000

When she moved from Penn Valley 22 years ago, Carol Kooperman knew she had found the perfect place for a golfer.

“I feel like I’m in Boca, but there’s no palm trees,” says the retired antiques dealer.

She adds that in addition to the adjacent country club, the community has its own pool, tennis courts, pickleball courts, gym, basketball courts for children and grandchildren, and a community center “that gives you an opportunity to know other people.”

The three-bedroom, 2½-bath house is in the Blue Bell Country Club community.

“It’s a very open concept and very airy,” says Kooperman, who is moving to Bucks County.

There is a two-story living room with floor-to-ceiling windows and a built-in wet bar.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a new dishwasher, a hood vented to the outside, a built-in microwave, a tiled backsplash, and easy access to the back deck.

The family room overlooks the kitchen and has a gas fireplace and a television with built-in surround sound.

The first floor also contains a powder room, laundry room with storage closet, and access to a two-car attached garage.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom has two walk-in closets and a bathroom with double vanity, stall shower, and Jacuzzi tub.

The third floor loft can be used as a bedroom, office, or bonus space.

The basement provides additional storage space, and there are shutters on all windows on the front of the house.

The two-zone HVAC was recently replaced.

The 2,533-square-foot house is in the Wissahickon School District and is close to public transportation, restaurants, and shopping.

It is listed by Jamie Adler with Long & Foster Real Estate for $649,000.
