Property Description
A wall of arched windows and french doors lets light stream into the living room of this exquisite English country home built in 1909 and located in a prime section of East Falls. The eye feasts on green views from every window as the home is surrounded by lush gardens and plantings first established by one of its early owners a member of the Burpee seed family. Today the 4500 sq ft residence radiates warmth, comfort, charm and fabulous space. The living room features a brick fireplace, built in bookcases and opens to a pretty porch on one side and a lovely sun room on the other. The dining room is a knock out with two walls of windows, built ins, china closet and window seat. The huge eat-in kitchen is a cook's delight with a restaurant caliber gas stove, Rutt cabinetry, center island, two prep areas, Bosch dishwasher and brand new electric wall ovens. The first floor also includes the den/office, PR and gracious entrance hall. Upstairs there are 5 large bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, a half bath and a bonus room. An au pair or in law suite could be easily accommodated. The house has been recently painted on the exterior and much of the interior. There is a newer roof, high end zoned heating and air conditioning, updated electric, over sized 2 car garage and much more. The property is exceptionally convenient to two train lines, major highway arteries, the Penn Charter School, Phila U and to center city which is only 15 minutes away. Well priced by motivated sellers, this property is a complete delight!
