Property Description
Welcome to this lovely Chestnut Hill single Victorian home where timeless craftsmanship meets modern luxury! Original floors, woodwork, massive Wissahickon schist fireplace mixed with a chef's kitchen, updated wiring, new boiler, and furnace/2-zone central air. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern convenience in Chestnut Hill. The chef's kitchen is a true showstopper, with a 6-burner professional Dacor range, a Sub-Zero double-sided refrigerator, honed marble countertops, an expansive island with seating, and ample natural light-perfect for entertaining and everyday living. Beyond that is the large living room and dining room with high ceilings and many windows, including a walk-in bay window. Take either the front formal stairs or the rear stairs to the second floor, where the owner's suite is in the front, with a room easily large enough for a king bed, a walk-in closet, laundry, and a full bath attached. The back of the house is another full bathroom and a large enough bedroom for any bed with space (and height!) for the Peloton. The third floor is split between two equally sized bedrooms or offices. Both have high ceilings, dormer windows with deep windowsills, and buckets of charm. The house is on a 50 x 160 double-wide lot with three-car parking, planting beds in the front and rear yard, and a lovely brick patio off the kitchen for dining and relaxing in the massive backyard. Easy access to SEPTA, 309, and most importantly, you can walk two blocks to Germantown Ave. for the best of Chestnut Hill and then retire to your expansive backyard and forget you're even in a city.
