Stunning Top of Hill home located on one of the most sought after streets in Chestnut Hill. Rarely comes the opportunity to find a home only a few minutes walk to the entrance of the Wissahickon trails and yet only minutes walk to the heart of Chestnut hill. This lovingly updated home features open sun drenched rooms via the many new windows, a kitchen featuring a professional model Wolf range, a first floor bedroom with full bathroom, a finished basement with private state of the art wine cellar all while sitting on on nearly a half acre of professionally planted and landscaped land. To top it off many of the larger components of the home have recently been upgraded ( recently installed new roof, windows, doors, first floor floors and new central air system). The convenience of being located within minutes of all the restaurants, cafe's and shops of Chestnut Hill, while maintaining the quaint charm of living on a quiet street near the park, all you need to do is unpack and enjoy the serenity!!!
