About this home
Welcome to 8713 Shawnee Street, a stunning 5-bedroom, 3-full- and 1-half-bath residence with garage parking, situated on one of Chestnut Hill's most coveted and quiet blocks. Blending timeless architectural character with magazine-worthy renovations, this exceptional home has undergone a comprehensive transformation by its current owner, creating an exceptional living experience for today's buyer.
The thoughtfully reimagined first floor offers an open-concept layout rarely found in Chestnut Hill, achieved through the removal of interior walls and the addition of structural steel beams. Rich hardwood flooring, abundant natural light, and sophisticated finishes create an elegant yet comfortable atmosphere throughout. The designer kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring semi-custom cabinetry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, Wolf induction range, Cove dishwasher, custom wood shelving, and French doors opening to the rear patio. The adjacent dining and living spaces, along with a light-filled sunroom, are ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, highlighted by a beautifully redesigned fireplace with a custom wood mantel and granite surround.
The second floor includes a spacious primary suite with a custom California Closet and an updated bath featuring premium fixtures and finishes. A fully renovated hall bath was thoughtfully redesigned to function as an ensuite bath for a secondary bedroom, while an additional bedroom/bonus room offers the convenience of a dedicated laundry closet, custom storage, and custom window treatments throughout.
The third floor provides two additional bedrooms and a full bath, including a front bedroom enhanced with custom California Closets and a new built-in window seat with storage.
Throughout the home, virtually every major system and finish has been updated, including two new HVAC systems, conversion from steam radiators to forced-air heating and cooling, extensive electrical upgrades with the removal of knob-and-tube wiring, new hardwood flooring, refinished staircases, recessed LED lighting, new doors and hardware, and freshly painted interiors.
Outside, the improvements continue with a new roof on both the house and detached garage, extensive professional landscaping and hardscaping, new patios, landscape lighting, updated exterior utilities, a pergola, a gas line, hose bibs, and enhanced outdoor living spaces. The detached one-car garage is accessed via a private driveway, providing convenient off-street parking.
Perfectly positioned in the heart of Chestnut Hill, this extraordinary home combines classic charm, modern luxury, and meticulous craftsmanship in one of Philadelphia's most sought-after neighborhoods. Just one block from the Chestnut Hill West train station and within easy walking distance of the vibrant shops, restaurants, and cafés along Germantown Avenue, the location offers exceptional convenience and connectivity. With easy access to major roadways, commuting to Center City and beyond is effortless while still enjoying the charm and character that make Chestnut Hill such a special place to call home....
