Property Description

It's not often that a home with this much space also feels this effortlessly livable. Filled with character and thoughtful details, this distinctive Chestnut Hill home has a casual elegance and warmth that makes you feel immediately at home. Soaring 15-foot ceilings and an inviting vestibule welcome you into the main level. The spacious living room features a handsome marble fireplace, built-in bookshelves beneath the windows, and floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open to a side patio. The formal dining room offers classic details including chair rail and a corner china hutch. Glass french doors lead to a second patio allowing indoor and outdoor spaces to flow naturally together—an ideal setting for entertaining. The large eat-in kitchen has wood cabinetry, a six-burner KitchenAid range, and built-in microwave, and opens to a convenient mudroom/laundry room and powder room. It's a practical, hardworking space with excellent storage and easy access to the outdoors.Upstairs, the primary suite features custom California Closets and opens to an adjoining office or flex space, with access to a roof deck/balcony. Steps lead down to a full bathroom with a large soaking tub. An additional bedroom at the far end of the hallway is currently used as a den and a hall bathroom with tub serves the rest of second level.The third floor offers even more flexible living space, including a large, sunny room with freshly painted floors that could serve beautifully as a playroom, bedroom, or studio. It opens to an additional bedroom, while a third bedroom and full hall bath are located at the opposite end of the hall. A bonus room with laundry hookups provides excellent storage and exciting potential for the future. The outdoor space truly shines. A welcoming front porch and two side porches offer multiple spots to sit and enjoy the surroundings, while the beautifully established gardens create a lush, private setting that changes with the seasons. Mature plantings, winding garden spaces, and abundant greenery give the property a wonderfully natural and secluded, almost secret-garden feeling. Other notable features include a newer furnace, a Bradford White hot water heater, central air and off-street parking. A brand new septic tank will be installed in Fall 2026; permits and plans are ready to go. And the location could hardly be more ideal—just a comfortable walk to the shops and restaurants of Germantown Avenue and the trails of the Wissahickon. Here, you get the best of Chestnut Hill at your doorstep: neighborhood charm, everyday convenience, and the feeling of being surrounded by nature. Within the city limits, but a world away.
