Description
A one-of-a-kind gem in the heart of the Drexelbrook neighborhood of Drexel Hill. This stunning Center Hall Colonial has been cherished and loved by the current owners for decades. No stone was left unturned in its updates throughout the years. Pull up and fall in love with that stone facade you've been hoping for. A true classic! Enter at the covered front porch and you'll be welcomed by the foyer entry with picture frame moldings. Immediately notice the gleaming original wide plank oak hardwood floors in beautiful condition and all of the natural light coming at you from all angles. To the right of the foyer, you'll find the very large living room with a modern gas fireplace with custom tile and woodwork. Off of the living room is the 3 season room, perfect for entertaining guests, watching the Phillies, or having your morning coffee. The original stone detail is the perfect backdrop for this cozy but useful space. To the left of the foyer, you'll find the very large formal dining room with chair rail and crown molding. The amazing eat-in kitchen is accessed from the foyer or the dining room for convenience. Ample cabinet space, tiled flooring and backsplash, beautiful stone countertops, and space for a nicely sized breakfast table. Access the huge fully fenced backyard from the kitchen. Head up the gorgeous staircase right out of a movie to the 4 bedrooms, one of which is an en suite. The hall bath has classic white and black tile and newer fixtures. The primary bedroom en suite is beautifully tiled and updated. All 4 bedrooms are so nice in size! The walk-up attic is a huge bonus! So much storage and if desired, it could be more living space! The wainscotting in the 2nd-floor hallway and the original banister is very beautiful. The basement of this home is amazing!!! The original Wissahickon Schist fireplace surround was worked into the renovation, but the fireplace is now gas for convenience. High-end carpet, recessed lighting, more custom trim work, and a perfectly tucked away half bath make this space great for entertaining, watching the game, or a place for kids to play. Another space has been used for workouts and an office- versatility factor! The utilities and the washer and dryer are separated to make the basement feel like a real extension of the rest of the home. The property itself offers a garage, driveway, tons of off-street parking, a really large and fully fenced backyard, a front entry porch, a side exterior porch, and an all-around classic aesthetic. This home has been loved beyond measure. It's completely ready to go with its custom finishes and touches throughout. Nobody else will have a home quite like yours. A great location that offers walkability to shopping, dining, public transportation, and schools. A wonderful opportunity- don't miss it.
