About This Home
As of June 2021This Queen Anne gem sits high on Fernbrook Avenue in the core of historic Wyncote. Set back from the tree lined street, it is surrounded by architecture from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. It may have lost some of its glimmer over the years but the present owners restored and upgraded this Victorian beauty. Not only did they preserve the character of the period, but they improved the homes ability to serve a modern lifestyle. The dwelling has 5 bedrooms, 2 ½ baths. The baths have been enlarged and redone for comfort and functionality. The main entry with a gas fireplace introduces you to the living areas with high ceilings, and abundant light from the many windows. (New double pane insulated windows throughout the house) and warm hardwood floors. The versatility of the first floor provides for dining, entertaining, and relaxation in a family room. There is a new gas fireplace/ heater in the room just off the state of the art kitchen. This huge culinary quarter boasts a mix of restored cabinets with generous new cabinetry. There is a center island as well as expansive counter space. The appliances are high-end matching stainless steel, and the tile and marble surfaces have been custom designed to set the comforting pallet of the room. There are 4 bedrooms on the second floor. The primary bedroom is connected to a large walk-in closet and a large bath with a separate shower and a custom tub. The third floor has one additional bedroom and generous storage space. A full new bath highlights this floor. There is a backyard deck and a carriage house garage for further living options. Sip your tea and read your books on the mahogany porch veranda overlooking the surrounding gardens of indigenous plants, shrubs and trees. Welcome to your new home in historic Wyncote.
