Ross Abel - Jenkintown Realtor & Investor. Old homes, new ideas, community

05/21/2026

Yorkway Place has quietly become one of the most magical little corners of Jenkintown.

New businesses are moving in, storefronts are filling up, and the alley somehow keeps getting better:

📚 Capricorn Books (coming late June / early July)
🎲 above (coming soon)
☕
🍦 Carminati Creamery
🎵 Smelly’s Vinyl Vibes (possibly September)
🏠 And apparently… we got a new roof too ;)

What local business opening are you most excited about right now?

The Abington-Jenkintown Connections project officially opened this week, adding safer crossings, sidewalks, and trail connections between several parts of Abington and Jenkintown.

This kind of infrastructure may seem small, but over time it changes how people move around a community and how connected neighborhoods feel to each other. #
Would love to see more projects like this across Eastern Montco.

What do you want to see improved next locally?

Special shoutout to state rep .sanchez.1800 for getting this project off the ground when he was an Abington Commissioner, Commissioner Winegrad for picking up the ball, State Reps for their support of this project and staff for the great work.

RARE rental coming soon in Jenkintown.

Not an apartment.
Not a typical suburban house.

Think:
🌳 magical Japanese Maple trees
🏡 storybook architecture
💦 pool tucked into a private backyard
🚉 walkable to the train
☕ minutes to Jenkintown favorites

And somehow… it feels more like a hidden countryside retreat than a rental.

This one is special.

Comment ‘RETREAT’ for details or tag a friend who may be interested.
