Property Description
Welcome to this beautifully maintained Chestnut Hill twin, tucked along a quiet, tree-lined street just steps from the boutiques and dining of Germantown Avenue. Blending classic charm with thoughtful updates, this home offers inviting spaces and effortless livability. Step through the enclosed front porch-featuring newer windows-into a bright, welcoming living room that flows seamlessly into the dining area. High ceilings and abundant natural light enhance both spaces. Just beyond, the spacious eat-in kitchen boasts generous cabinetry, newer appliances, and a cozy built-in corner banquette-perfect for everyday meals or casual entertaining. A convenient first-floor powder room and access to the fenced rear garden with terrace complete this level. Upstairs, you'll find three peaceful, well-proportioned bedrooms along with a beautifully renovated hall bathroom. One bedroom is currently configured as a dressing room/closet, offering flexible use. The partially finished basement adds even more versatility, with space for a family room, a powder room, laundry area, and ample storage. Additional highlights include hardwood floors throughout, high ceilings, central air, solar panels, newer windows, a recently coated roof, upgraded electrical (knob-and-tube removed), and a newer hot water heater (2023). Ideally located with easy access to regional rail, the Wissahickon trails, and neighborhood gems like Woodmere Art Museum and Morris Arboretum, this turnkey home offers low-maintenance living in one of Chestnut Hill's most desirable settings.
