Property Description
Perched above the street, set apart by the picturesque weeping willow defining the property's lush exterior, this delightful 3-story, 5-bedroom, c 1930 stone Colonial single in sought after East Falls offers all the charm of a country cottage plus great space and upgrades desired by today's buyers. Step inside and find each room prettier than the next. The expansive sunroom with its rustic terracotta floor and glistening mullioned windows on three sides serves as the entryway. When doors and windows are open in this breezy area, it feels like the outside comes in. French doors from this area lead into the generous living room where the stone fireplace is the focal point and hardwood floors gleam. A turned staircase accented with a large paladin window reflects the home's intrinsic character. Hardwood floors continue in the dining room with its chair rail, deep window sills and French doors leading to the wonderful deck overlooking abundant gardens and yard. This is a totally private area. Parquet wood floors take over in the remodeled kitchen with its farmhouse feel, ample ceiling-height cabinetry in the softest shade of beige, tile and tin backsplash, plate rack and stainless appliances. A mud room with built-ins complete the first floor. Upstairs look for five bedrooms. The three on the 2nd floor include the large main bedroom with three exposures, the sunny 2nd bedroom is used as an office where the focal point here is an eye catching wall mural which the owner spotted on a TV home show and added, and a third nice size bedroom used as an attractive closet. There are two dreamy bedrooms on the third floor, each a good size with attic eaves and one with half crescent windows. From this floor, when trees are not in bloom, you can see across rooftops to City Line Ave. Hall bathrooms on both the 2nd and 3rd floors have each been remodeled. This is a well maintained home. A new roof was installed in 2010, heating and air conditioning were new in 2011. There is a new electric service and a 5 yr old hot water heater. Sewer and water lines to the street have been replaced. East Falls is a vibrant, leafy residential community with shops, restaurants, parks, playgrounds, two commuter train lines and easy access to the expressway, US RT 1 and other major arteries. Center City is just 10 minutes away.
