8434 Ardleigh St

Φιλαδέλφεια, PA 19118

Welcome to 8434! This property was designed by Horace Trumbauer?s company in 1925 -- and the stateliness and quality of the craftsmanship is unmistakable. While the property includes a detached multi-purpose, one-car garage and a dedicated driveway long enough for multiple off-street parking spaces, you won?t need a car for regional transportation, groceries, dining, nightlife or an eclectic range of retail and shopping needs. Simply walk out the back door, stroll through a full backyard and through a privacy fence gate and you?ll be on ?the Avenue? within a few steps, not blocks. Entering the front of the house from a sidewalk and tree-lined street, you'll breeze across an oversized stone porch and into a spacious foyer. From the foyer, you?ll notice a very satisfying and useful circular flow floor plan as you move into a square living room with a functioning fireplace and a set of beautiful French doors, then a dining room capable of seating plenty of dinner guests. From the dining room you?ll have the option to continue into a winterized sun porch overlooking the backyard garden or move right into the eat-in kitchen, which flows back around to the foyer. Upstairs you will find four bedrooms all with one full closet each except for the master bedroom which has two! There are three bathrooms, one full bath on the second level, one half bath on the first level off the foyer and the third half bath in the basement. 9-foot ceiling heights, oak and pine hardwood floors, millwork, solid wood doors and central air conditioning throughout. Off the upstairs hallway is a full staircase with vaulted landing leading to a partially finished third floor space that was used by the previous owners as the house?s 5th bedroom. Don?t just live near the Hill --own your piece of it.
