Property Description
Discover the timeless elegance of this updated 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home, offering over 4,100 sq. ft. of living space on nearly half an acre in Elkins Park. This stately residence, set back on lush grounds, boasts a striking Wissahickon schist stone and cedar shake exterior, framed by mature trees and a detached two-car garage. Inside, the beautifully restored woodwork, stained glass, and leaded windows highlight the home’s rich character.
Enter through a grand foyer, where a stunning staircase welcomes you to explore further. Relax in the spacious living room with its wood-burning fireplace and beautifully crafted wooden mantle, showcasing detailed carving that adds elegance and character to the room. The kitchen features cherry cabinets, new appliances, an island and eat-in area perfect for casual meals. There's a charming and bright family room to relax and a large formal dining room overlooking the scenic backyard. Off the rear of the home is a cedar deck ideal for entertaining or unwinding. The first floor also includes a powder room and an enclosed side porch which can be used as a mudroom but is large enough to function as a playroom or whatever you wish.
On the second floor, you'll find four large bedrooms and two full baths. The main bedroom also has a dressing room for added convenience. The third floor expands your options, with flexible space suited for additional bedrooms, a home gym, office, or media room. A rooftop deck off the den invites you to enjoy the outdoors from a new vantage point.
Modern amenities include two-zone central air and a four-zone gas heating system for comfort throughout the year. Perfectly located, this home offers an easy walk to the Elkins Park train station and effortless access to local shops, restaurants, and parks. Close to routes 309 and the PA Turnpike.
