Property Description
Welcome to 8409 Anderson Street, a thoughtfully updated twin home set in the heart of Chestnut Hill. A bright and charming sunroom welcomes you to the home, offering a versatile space that works equally well as a mudroom or casual sitting room. Inside, the living room features hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and custom built-ins, and opens naturally into the dining room, where classic wainscoting, and generous windows create an inviting setting for everyday meals or gatherings. The eat-in kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances, glass-front cabinetry, and a farmhouse sink, blending character with functionality. Just beyond, a partially covered rear deck provides an easy extension of living space and overlooks the detached, fully fenced backyard - ideal for outdoor dining, gardening, or relaxed entertaining. Hardwood floors continue throughout the second and third levels. The second floor includes a sun-filled primary bedroom with ample windows and dual closets, along with two additional bedrooms - one featuring built-ins - and an updated hall bath with both a soaking tub and separate shower. The third floor offers two more bedrooms and an additional full hall bath, creating flexible options for guests, home offices, or additional living space. The finished walk-out basement adds valuable bonus space and includes a half bath, laundry area, and multiple walk-in storage closets. Outside, a garage provides additional storage, and the driveway accommodates two-car off street parking. Ideally situated just steps from the well-loved shops and cafés along Germantown Avenue, this home also offers convenient access to regional rail, neighborhood parks, and nearby trails. A well-balanced blend of classic character, modern updates, and an exceptional Chestnut Hill location.
