Located footsteps from the Media Elwyn line and across from Kingsessing recreation center and library, there is so much convenience and awaiting those who commute. Be greeted by burgeoning plants, which blossom from the sidewalk to the classic West Philly Front Porch. Inside, an open concept floor plan begs to question "how does so much space fit behind this homes facade. Natural 4 inch planked hardwood flooring, primarily grey with tints of brown run cohesively throughout the entire residence. Walls are carefully adorned with chair rail, trim boxes and crown molding, adding to the sense exceptional craftsman ship, as an interpretive architectural nod to the period in which the home was originally constructed. Ceilings, even in the finished basement are fairly high, adding to the sense of space. Notice the stately decorative mantle equipped with a built in auxiliary heater with fireplace artifice. Details prevail. Recessed LED lighting and intelligent thermostat for the high efficiency Central Air system, new windows, as well as 200amp electric are some of the modern improvements to assist with ongoing operational expenditures. The first level has a conveniently tucked powder room, as well as a storage closet. The galley style kitchen is anchored by a tremendous 10 foot white quartz island with waterfalled edges, and bar stool nook that is absolutely stunning, providing abundant space for entertaining and plating. In the rear, a sundrenched paved patio with wood fence is a perfect place for plants or pets. The second level hosts generous bedrooms at each end with a central bedroom which has been converted to an office, as well as a laundry center and bathroom. The office has a custom built bookshelf with desk, and the amount of light encourages productivity. The bathroom is spacious, offering a double basin sink, and oversized tile flooring. The front bedroom has a classic Philly bay, with storage containing window seat, a favorite place for pets and people to plant themselves. Closets extend an entire wall of this room. The third level can be imagined as a living suite with roof deck. The bedroom has customized arched transom glass over the front facing windows, which most would have simply replaced with wood demonstrating the level of care and attention taken in this home. The third level bath is spa like with a rainfall shower with floor to ceiling custom tile.
