Colonial

This exceptional Chestnut Hill home is a little private oasis, just steps from the Avenue and Fairmount Park. This right-sized Georgian offers exquisite charm and character and includes six bedrooms, five full and one-half baths. As soon as you enter the large, two-story foyer with original brick floor, you are mesmerized by the clean lines and architecture of the home. Large updated, eat-in kitchen with cozy sitting area, sun-filled dining room and an adjacent mudroom, all with access to the new patio and private rear yard with pool. The first-floor den offers a large wood burning fireplace and original built-ins and the extra-large living room, accessed by stunning breezeway, is an escape, with vaulted ceiling, new large palladium windows, fireplace and French doors to the rear yard. The second floor includes a bright master suite with fireplace, updated master bath and two additional bedroom suites. One suite includes a delightful new bath and the other includes a renovated bath and an in-law/au pair suite with separate staircase, and a dedicated entrance. The over-sized third floor guest suite with full bath provides extra living space. The private lot with all new hardscaping includes a beautiful back patio, front paths and new professional landscaping front and back. All this and new windows, a new septic, second floor laundry, first floor powder room, freshly refinished hardwood floors and much, much more.
