Property Description
Heres an opportunity to own a home that hasnt been on the market for more than thirty years, located in the Blue Bell Hill community.
This Mid 19th Century, c.1860 Paper Mill home is surrounded by Fairmount Park. This Germantown Dutch Colonial is a historical landmark in the Blue Bell Hill neighborhood. Its simplicity will never go out of style. This delightful 4 Bedroom, 1-1/2 Bath home radiates quiet quality with the 4th bedroom on the third floor illuminated with skylights. Mellow oak floors flow throughout the downstairs. The Living room offers wood wainscoting, custom built-in bookcase and a lovely bay window which overlooks the park. The kitchen is bright and relaxing with newer appliances, white tile countertops and tile backsplashes. The family room, accessed through the kitchen, has a half bath, large closet and double glass sliding doors, which lead out to a peaceful back patio and yard. In the fenced in backyard, you will find many annuals and perennials in the secluded, postcard-perfect garden.
On the 2nd floor there are three bedrooms, two of which have wall to wall carpeting and a full 3-piece bath which suits the historical style. On the third floor you will find a large room. This home catches natural light from morning sun to evening. Basement is clean & dry with shelves for storage. Updated mechanicals and high velocity CENTRAL AIR. Much of the interior has been recently painted, with deep closets, newer windows throughout and large window sills. You'll adore the peaked roofs, gentle lines, total harmony, and exuberant beauty. It is in move-in condition on one of the prettiest streets in Blue Bell Hill across from the Park!
Only a 15-minute drive to Center City. If you admired this house all these years, now is your chance to own it. Tradition is not about what was, tradition is now!
October settlement date preferred.
