Property Description
An absolute must-see in the fantastic East Falls neighborhood. Impeccably maintained and updated from top to bottom, this home has it all. Set back from the street past lush rose bushes and a gorgeous Japanese maple, this twin feels very much like a single family home. Enter the foyer from the large enclosed porch and you will immediately be struck by the sunlight, the warmth, and the easy elegance of the home. The home is full of wonderful original details such as gorgeous leaded glass windows, mahogany pocket doors to the living and dining rooms, 10-ft ceilings, and oversized windows with crown molding. Mexican tile lines the foyer (hardwood underneath) and hardwood floors span the living spaces. The living room is full of natural light and features one of two fireplaces in the home. French doors lead to the charming front porch (complete with porch swing). Across the foyer is the spacious formal dining room which has the 2nd fireplace and beautiful leaded glass windows. It is large enough for family gatherings and dinner parties, but warm and inviting enough for simple weekday meals. A recently renovated powder room is tucked under the steps.
The kitchen is every home chef's dream. Don't love to cook? You just might once you try out this kitchen. Professional grade Viking 8-burner stove with 2 built in ovens, stainless vented hood with warmer. Custom cabinetry offers creative storage options and the island topped with Italian marble provides prep space as well as storage and seating. Dark granite countertops contrast beautifully with the white marble and glass backsplash. Bar sink and built-in microwave and wine rack, in-drawer microwave, exquisite pendant lighting...This kitchen truly has it all. Convenient access to the back patio though a small mudroom allows for seamless entertaining and outdoor dining. The second floor offers four spacious rooms, one currently used as a den. The hall bathroom has been exquisitely renovated with radiant floor heat, clawfoot tub, and separate shower. On the third level you will find three more rooms, one of which is currently used as a large office but could be a perfect primary bedroom, playroom or home gym. A library /office, additional bedroom, and another fully renovated bathroom complete the level. The fenced yard is lined with mature plantings and provides space to garden, play, or relax. Sellers have thoughtfully and diligently maintained and upgraded every system, so you will enjoy copper lines to the street, newer plumbing, newer wiring (all knob and tube has been removed), central air, ring doorbell, wine closet and many other features. Convenient location makes getting to Center City a breeze. You will be just a short walk from the fabulous McMichael Park and William Penn Charter School, and just a block from the Germantown Friends School Playing Fields. Truly a magnificent property, inside and out. Don't miss it!
