Property Description
Penn Alexander Catchment! Spruce Hill, West Philly. This gorgeous circa 1920 5+ 2.5 bath EAST facing 3 story home with garage is on a block named one of Philadelphia Magazine's best due to its "Quintessential leafy West Philly grandiosity". Steps away from the Green Line trolley, the streetscape feels miles away from Baltimore Avenue as blowing leaves overhead provide peace upon approach to this pink and green painted beauty reticently peering over planted perennials and annuals. Enter the sunporch, a theater of colonial paned windows and doors, bookended with natural hardwood on both ceiling and floor. This area is a wonderful epilogue to the world outside, a place to remove the shoes, hang the coats and drop the bags, backpacks or strollers. The built-in storage bench under the coat hooks provides an area of composure for casual clutter. Enter the formal living room, broad, spacious, and the sense of character continues to develop. The wood burning hearth and fireplace, awaits the frostiest winter days to accompany a good book and warm spirits. Two dual zoned Central Air Units will ensure that everything is cool on every level of this home on those humid August days. Consideration and thoughtfulness are in the pedigree of this home. Craftsmanship, from the articulated extra wide crown and functional picture molding to the cascading original handrails of the central stair, to the reassuring chair rail and decorative trim, subtly abounds. The powder room precedes entry into the dining area. The kitchen is modern, outfitted with top-of-the-line ivory cabinetry with contrasting inlay, stainless steel appliance suite with gas cooking, ample natural stone countertops for prep, and an extra wide farmhouse sink. Leading outside from the kitchen is a two-tiered deck, with ample space for outdoor entertainment or relaxation. A second set of stairs leads to the upper levels, where there are five bedrooms with ceiling fans, two renovated full bathrooms, and a bonus room great for an office or studio space. All windows are high quality replacements. Doors throughout the proprety are original and consistently paneled. The electrical system is updated 200 AMP, so there is no knob and tube in the residence. In the rear of the home is an attached garage, which is a rarity in West Philly. This block is known for its epic annual block party. Clark Park and the 34 trolley is a block away. This home is close to University of Penn, Drexel, University of the Sciences, CHOP and Hospital Systems as well as a plethora of cafes like Earth Cup, Vagrant, Clarkville, Green Line Cafe, Cafe Renata and Viet Tien, Queen of Sheba,Bookers, The Wine Garden, and many many, many more.
