Three story Gothic Revival stone home Circa 1862 located on what is arguably the most desirable block of architecturally significant homes in Chestnut Hill. Originally built as a single home, the home was carefully divided into two dwellings in 1941. Over the last 3 years, it was extensively updated and expanded by its current owners with the addition of a spectacular kitchen with eating area, master bathroom with jetted tub and huge tile shower, a second floor laundry and, walk-in closet as well as updates to all bathrooms, fireplaces and to the heating and electrical systems and also the installation of 5 mini split units. This spectacular home retains all of it's original architectural details such as floor to ceiling windows, original tumbled marble tile flooring in the foyer, interior shutters, 5 working fireplaces - two with imported French marble mantels, mirrored pocket doors in the dining room, intricate period wainscoting, bay windows, high ceilings, original 1860's mirrors in the entry foyer and dining room, wood flooring, 10 1/2 foot ceilings and so much more. The beautiful new eat-in kitchen features an 8 foot island with seating, 6 burner commercial range, granite counters, marble backsplash, recessed and bell pendant lighting, a 5 stage reverse osmosis water filter system and a split heat and AC unit. The huge windows provide wonderful light and views of the private .66 acre lot. There is parking for several cars in the driveway and behind the home. The expanded walk-out basement includes a bonus room with bay window and built-ins that could be used as an in-home office, work out space or playroom. This home is located on a deep and extremely private .66 acre lot on a lightly traveled street. It is convenient to the shops and restaurants of Chestnut Hill, the hiking and biking trails of the Wissahickon, to route 309 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike and is just steps to SEPTA's Chestnut Hill East Station. Don't miss this opportunity to be the next owner of this wonderful home!
