Impeccable Victorian offers Resort Living and Versatile Spaces! This stunning Home, located in picturesque East Oak Lane, truly excites- offering divine exterior/ interior multi- Seasonal pleasure ahead! Encounter 4 impeccable, user-friendly dwelling floors; a true Victorian wrap-around Porch built w/ quarried hand-picked Micha, dark grey, & ochre-colored stone; a covered elevated back Dining Deck; an In-ground Pool & Fire Pit Lounge area- fully surrounded by a decorative safety Fence; a two-car Garage w/ additional Driveway parking- all punctuated by beautiful landscaping, a private Flower Garden oasis, and Veggie Plot served by a generous-sized Tool Shed...This property has been impeccably restored, maintained, and renovated to meet today's exacting standards. The newer roof, the classic white just-painted eaves, the strong lines of important Philadelphia architecture... all combine to create a solid & stately experience. The cool, muted-toned Interior softly greets with a genteel Parlor grounded by a handsome Wissahickon Schist mantle w/ precious Rose & Celedon marble marketry. A flick of a switch creates a cozy glow by the light of the Gas Fireplace, and cast by the lovely brass Sconces and time-sensitive Chandelier above further reflecting the authentic charm of the Home's turn-of-the-century roots. From the intimate entrance, a perfect filter from the outside World- a grand Living/ Dining/high-end Prep space extends, served by controllable split-level AC plus ceiling fans, allowing for a breezy interplay of food, fun, and connectivity. A fresh, full Bath w/ classic black & white tile and whimsical nautical theme plays well w/ the resort-like Pool area located nearby through the Kitchen Pantry. The original old-growth Oak floors, framed w/ Mahogany & Birch fine craftsmanship, are now newly restored and gleam as they wind and wend throughout. A playful circular corner staircase surprises descending to a fully finished lower level. Tiled floors and high efficiency, temperature-controlled mechanics (an Artform in and of themselves as current owner is an HVAC specialist!)- allow below for a Den, two Bedrooms, and a full spa-like Bath. Newer light-filtering windows w/ screened circulation on this lower level complete- along w/Storage, Laundry, and a second convenient egress to the rear exterior. The creative uses of the upper levels abound as this property was originally designed as a Tri-plex (now Zoned Single Family). The Beauty is that multi-generational living is ideal w/ a second (and third floor) capacity for add'l food prep, or to perhaps fully serve an Artist's Studio needs! The sunlit freshly painted rooms are remarkable and link through the wedding cake-like stairwell- note those newly refinished sturdy treads transporting little and big feet alike to & fro. See the 3D Virtual Tour for the full 'doll-house' experience. A commuter's paradise as a short walk to Melrose Park Train Station- only 4 stops to Center City then directly on to the Airport. Enjoy low City real estate taxes yet also the plethora of fine shopping, dining, and park experiences offered by directly adjacent Montgomery County suburbs! A fantastic engaged community of supportive neighbors, who collectively value green living- completes this remarkable residential opportunity. (Zoned RSA2-Residential Single Family Attached-2)
