Property Description
Mid-century vibes meet gorgeous garden oasis in this immaculate 4 bedroom, 4 bath home on 0.66 acres in a fantastic location in Chestnut Hill. Built in 1957 and expanded upon, this sunlit home features walls of windows showcasing a fabulous, terraced backyard filled with perennial plantings, flowers and mature trees. The original iron portico leads to the entrance foyer, giving a glimpse into the open, functional floor plan with gorgeous inlaid herringbone floors and crown molding. To the left is the dining room, sunlit by a large solarium window. Enter the expansive living room with wood-burning fireplace and wall of sliders to the deck that looks out onto the rear gardens. The kitchen offers terracotta floors, open shelving, Sub-Zero, Miele and Bosch appliances, breakfast area, access to the 2-car garage and double glass doors lead to the rear elevated deck. The right-hand wing of the home offers a paneled study with built-ins, full hall bath, spacious bedroom with closet, and the primary bedroom suite, with dual full bathrooms with dressing areas and closets, and large primary bedroom overlooking the beautiful rear grounds. The walkout lower level offers an expansive family room with fireplace and French doors to the rear slate patio, a full hall bath, 2 large bedrooms, the laundry, and the utility area. The walk-up upper level of this gorgeous home offers a huge area that can be finished off for extra living space or bedrooms, or kept as storage space. The grounds of this property are truly special – relax in your very own sanctuary listening to birdsong, looking out over terraced gardens and trees. The owners added an additional parcel of land to the property to bring it to 0.66 acres. All this and more, in a location just a short hop to the shops and dining along Germantown Ave, easy access to the Lavender Trailhead of Fairmount Park, the train station and major roads.
