Property Description

***Seller is requesting highest and best offers by Monday, August 18 at 3:00 pm*** Timeless charm meets vibrant location at 247 W. Haines. Set on a friendly street where neighbors gather for block parties and look out for one another, this West Germantown gem offers character, convenience, and community. Step inside through the vestibule framed by original glass doors, and you're welcomed by restored hardwood floors, vintage door hardware, and a stunning Victorian tile fireplace with ornate iron grate. The spacious living room opens into a large dining room that's perfect for gathering with friends and family. From there, you'll find a cozy kitchen that's equipped with new appliances and ready for your dream renovation. Just beyond, a mudroom with laundry and a new half bath keeps everyday living convenient and organized. The back door leads you outside to a shady, fenced patio that's ideal for summer barbecues, cozy fall evenings, or morning coffee in your own private retreat. Upstairs, restored hardwood floors continue throughout three well-sized bedrooms. A full hall bath with claw foot tub and shower completes the second floor. The large, dry basement has high ceilings for additional storage or potential finishing. While the home retains its original character, recent upgrades include a new roof (3/2025), and new electric with 200 amp service (2019). Conveniently located you'll enjoy easy access to the shopping, dining, and green spaces Germantown has to offer, plus the Chelten Station just around the corner for a quick 25-minute ride to Center City.
