You will be greeted by a wraparound porch ideal for morning coffee or evening chats, all framed by lush, landscaped front and back yards. Just a few short blocks from the St. Martins train station, Philadelphia Cricket Club, Springside Chestnut Hill Academy, Pastorious Park and a short walk to the quaint boutiques, bars, restaurants and cafes of Germantown Avenue, the location is a true gem. Forget delivery, you can walk to Cincin! And for nature lovers, Fairmount Park and Valley Green are just around the corner—perfect for weekend adventures. Inside, high ceilings, oversized bay windows, and gleaming hardwood floors create an open, light-filled ambiance. Relax in the sun-drenched living room, complete with a charming window alcove and custom bookshelves. The formal dining room—highlighted by elegant glass-paneled pocket doors and room for 12—leads to a delightful butler's pantry with vintage glass cabinetry. The heart of the home is the gourmet eat-in kitchen, where you'll find cherry cabinets, a Viking range, Sub-Zero fridge, Bosch dishwasher, and slate tile HEATED floors. Entertain effortlessly on the backyard deck with a built-in gas grill, perfect for summer evenings under the stars. Upstairs, the second floor features a tranquil primary bedroom with bay windows and a mirrored closet, a cozy office space, and a luxurious marble-tiled bathroom with both a soaking tub and stand-alone shower.
