About This Property

This classic colonial in Drexel Hill gives the buyer plenty of room: with a separate area on the second floor and a separate exit, this space is ideal for in-laws or other relatives; a nanny suite; or a creative enclave. In all, this spacious home has five/six bedrooms and four full baths. The hardwood foyer on the first floor opens to two large living rooms; one room can used as a den. The living room to the right has a brick fireplace, large windows, and a door leading to an enclosed porch that is used as a bar. There is a non-functioning fireplace in this room and an exit to the driveway. To the left of the front door, the living room/den has wood floors, a ceiling fan, and window seat. Step through to the formal dining room, with attractive crown moldings, deep-silled windows, and a distinctive ceiling.  The kitchen is updated, with pretty cabinets, plenty of counterspace and granite countertops. A door exits to the backyard. The breakfast area is spacious, with a ceiling fan and exit to the exterior deck. Off the kitchen is a large pantry for plenty of storage; this is also where the washer and dryer are located. The recently renovated first-floor full bath has a tile floor and step-in shower. The bath is fully accessible for those with disabilities.  A staircase leads to the expansive second floor. The main bedroom has an en-suite bath with tub/shower combination. The additional bedroom on this floor leads to a sunroom with plentiful windows and built-ins; the second floor also has a hall bath and linen closet. The separate space on this floor features a kitchen, updated bathroom with a tub/shower combination, small dining area (which can also serve as a bedroom), another bedroom, and living room with exterior stairs leading to the driveway.

The third floor has two additional bedrooms and a bathroom with tub/shower combination. There is also attic storage. This Drexel Hill neighborhood has much to offer, with shopping, restaurants, and other attractions, as well as easy access to Route 1 and Center City.
