Property Description
Welcome to this charming stone Mid-Century Split-Level home, perfectly perched on a beautifully landscaped lot with views of the street and golf course. A graceful slate staircase leads to the main entrance and a front patio, offering a peaceful place to enjoy the scenery. Step inside to a sun-drenched living room featuring expansive windows and warm hardwood floors that flow throughout the main level. A stunning stone wood-burning fireplace with a stone mantle adds timeless character and comfort to the space. The convenient circular layout flows into the dining room that opens to the updated kitchen, which is well-appointed with abundant white cabinetry, sleek black granite countertops, a stylish tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a double sink with disposal, and a thoughtfully designed layout that makes entertaining and everyday living a breeze. Just off the kitchen, a private backyard oasis awaits-complete with a patio, firepit, and garden beds overlooking neighboring green spaces. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious primary bedroom with two large closets and a convenient en-suite half bath. A second bedroom of similar size and a beautifully updated full bathroom with ceramic tile, a tub/shower surround, and a furniture-style vanity complete this level. Downstairs, the lower level boasts a large, light-filled living space with full-size windows and a private side entrance-perfect as a den, guest suite, or home office. A third bedroom with a generous closet and a full tiled bathroom with a walk-in shower is also on this level. The laundry room includes a mechanical closet, crawlspace access for storage, and an interior vestibule leading to the attached one-car garage and a second front entrance. Ideally located just steps from public transportation, a public golf course, and direct walk-in access to Wissahickon Park. You're also within walking distance to Roxborough's commercial corridor-home to grocery stores, restaurants, and shops-and just minutes from Manayunk, East Falls, Mt. Airy, Chestnut Hill, and major highways.
