About this home
This home is truly a very rare find. Not only does this have the charm and character you're looking for in a Chestnut Hill property, but it is also a detached home which possesses a uniquely expansive lot size of 60x149, resulting in both a massive side and rear yard (which are also fully fenced-in). Along with its four bedrooms, this yard makes for a dream home for any family looking for space - both inside and out. Once you step foot inside from the front porch you'll notice the hardwood floors and overall great condition of the home. After passing through the traditional living room and dining rooms you'll enter the chefs kitchen which not only showcases an abundance of cabinet and countertop space (along with a pantry), but includes a high-end Bosch specialty appliance package; dishwasher, refrigerator, and induction range. Off of the kitchen you'll find a convenient half bath tucked away from your entertaining spaces along with a mudroom which is perfect for coming in from the backyard. On the upper floors you have a very large traditional primary bedroom in the front of the second floor with great natural light and a full wall of closets. The second floor also has an updated full bathroom, a rear bedroom easily big enough for a queen sized bed and a bedroom set, and a fourth bedroom best suited for a child's room with a twin bed, a home office, or a nursery. To top it all off, there is an enormous private bedroom on the 3rd floor that could function as either a great guest bedroom, secondary living room (as currently pictured), or a children's playroom. As for location, it doesn't get much better than this quiet small street with amazing neighbors, just up the street from the restaurant/retail corridor on Germantown Ave. The house is just 0.2 miles from the Acme supermarket and with a Walkscore of 85 your other daily errands can be accomplished on foot! Not to mention that the home is surrounded by public transportation with the Wyndmoor regional rail stop at the end of the street and also several bus routes (23, 77, & 51) nearby. The house is currently vacant and can be seen on short notice!...
