Property Description

Backing to the gorgeous Wissahickon Valley Park, this expanded cedar-shingled colonial isn't just like all the others. The landscaper who lived here has transformed the property into an oasis of tranquility and privacy. A surprisingly ample entry way with a large coat closet gives way to the living room with a woodburning fireplace (not recently used) and a large window positioned to capture the lovely view of the woods. The dining room opens to the terrific addition which provides not only great vistas, but wonderful natural light. Finally, the large kitchen offers tons of counter space and cabinets as well as space for a table if you'd like an eat-in-kitchen. There is also a kitchen door which leads to the side patio and driveway. Rounding out the first floor is a convenient powder room. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms and there is oak hardwood under all the carpets. The main bedroom is spacious with a large closet. One of the other three bedrooms has a door leading to a roof deck, which is located above the family room addition. There is a hall bath with a tub. The finished, walk-out basement includes another full bath and has been used as a living space and could be used in a variety of ways—playroom, office, guest suite—to meet the needs of the next owner. It even has a wet bar! The laundry and utilities are also located in a separate room in the basement. Exit to the back brick patio and incredible grounds, including the low- maintenance koi ponds. While this home would welcome some updates, the size, layout and neighborhood as well as the special location with the park as a backdrop provide the canvas for a spectacular home. You won't believe you're technically in the city of Philadelphia. Newer roof, HVAC and hot water heater. Close to hiking/biking trails of Fairmount Park, Valley Green, the Wissahickon Stables, Houston Playground, shopping, schools, transportation and easily accessible to Chestnut Hill, Mt. Airy, and Roxborough/Manayunk.
