About This Property
Lovingly maintained and meticulously updated over the years, this
distinctive Tudor-style home in the coveted "Drexel Park"
neighborhood awaits its new owner. Boasting architectural features
that exude old world charm paired with modern updates (think arched
doorways, deep window sills and custom built-ins), this home has
the space and amenities for today's buyer, while its timeless
features have been carefully preserved. A brick walkway leads to
the arched front door into a slate floored vestibule with oversized
coat closet and spacious powder room. Step into the foyer boasting
a beautiful L-shaped staircase, flanked by a 21x14 living room
offering space for all to gather. The fireplace has been converted
to gas and offers the perfect focal point to this space. Recessed
lighting has been added to this room that also has a ceiling fan,
hardwood flooring and a French door to one of your many outdoor
living spaces- a covered side porch with ceiling fan, that was
thoughtfully designed to make it simple to enclose into a 3-season
room if you wish. Ceiling fans and recessed lighting have been
added to each room in the home, and many rooms have been freshly
painted- just a few of the many thoughtful improvements that the
owners have made! The hardwood flooring continues into the formal
dining room, boasting dual corner cabinets and a long deep
windowsill that adds character and utility to this room. There is
an informal breakfast nook with original pantry cabinets that
connect the kitchen to the dining room. The kitchen is spacious,
featuring a center island with seating, an abundance of cabinetry,
gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances (Bosch DW replaced- 2021)
and a walk-in pantry for additional storage. Closets and storage
are abundant in this home; you will never have a shortage of space
for your clothing and "overflow" items. Up the stairs to the 2nd
level you will find a floor plan that offers you options! There are
technically two "main" bedrooms, one on the 2nd level and one that
spans the entirety of the 3rd story. The 2nd level offers four
large bedrooms, all with hardwood flooring, recessed lighting,
ceiling fans and nice sized closets. There is a hall bath that
features a shower/bathtub with tasteful subway tile, an updated
vanity, tile flooring and custom shelving. The 2nd bath on this
level is "Jack & Jill" style, recently renovated with white subway
tiled shower, wainscot, and updated sink and mirror combination and
is shared by two rooms that are currently being used as the main
bedroom and an in-home office. The 3rd level boasts a 2nd "main"
bedroom with hardwood flooring, recessed lighting + ceiling fan, a
neutral wall color and large en suite tiled bathroom with soaking
tub/shower combination and updated vanity. A hallway closet for
additional clothing storage as well as two access points to the
spacious attic complete this level. There is more! The unfinished
walk-out basement with laundry room and recently replaced exterior
door offers a blank slate for you to use as you wish- think home
gym, craft area or game room! You will be impressed by the tankless
combination water heater and heating system with a Bosch Greenstar
combi ZWB model gas condensing boiler. All of the horizontal cast
iron heating pipes in the basement were removed and replaced with
Oxygen Barrier Red and Blue PEX piping. Buy with confidence knowing
that these big ticket items have been done for you! This home is
situated on a spacious and level lawn, with colorful plantings and
several spaces to sit outside, play and entertain, including a
covered patio off of the rear of the home that also offers a
convenient informal entrance into the kitchen from the driveway,
and a patio next to the 2-car detached garage. The location offers
convenience to shopping, schools, the SEPTA 101/102 trolley line,
and is a short drive to the airport and Center City. You will be
proud to pull up to this home and call it your own.
