This brand new home at Arbor Knoll on DeKalb Street has just became available! This Norris II floorplan combines the best of single floor living with an attached garage PLUS a finished lower level. For qualified first-time home buyers, special mortgage financing is available: just 3% down with no PMI and cash grants for closing costs of up to $10,000! This makes the total payment lower than rent in most cases an amazing value! The home is on the END with plenty of windows and views of open space from the rear as well as the front via a charming front porch. Oversized windows on three sides bathe the floor plan in natural light, and tall ceilings add to the open, spacious feeling. The U-shaped kitchen has espresso cabinets, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash and stainless appliances including a stainless refrigerator. Counter seating with trendy Edison bulb pendants easily seats three and opens to the dining and living areas for casual entertaining. A convenient powder room with pedestal sink and oval mirror is privately tucked behind the kitchen and pantry closet. The spacious master bedroom has windows galore while providing convenient direct access to the main bathroom with hall access for the second bedroom. A laundry closet is conveniently located off the hall. The lower level provides a cozy get-away space. With a progressively planned, environmentally sustainable community concept, Arbor Knoll offers beautiful brick appointments and designs to echo the grand historic homes of Upper DeKalb Street. A pocket park on site for community gatherings and extensive landscaping throughout are additional highlights while the sidewalk system provides that old fashioned neighborhood feel and walkability to convenient shopping, restaurants, SEPTA rail and parks. The community has won numerous awards for its exceptional design.
