This rendered concept—valued at approximately $3.995 million—illustrates the level of luxury achievable on this rare, fully approved 1.02-acre lot located on West Moreland Ave in the prestigious St. Martins area of Chestnut Hill. Approved by Philadelphia Licenses & Inspections as two equal 0.51-acre lots, this flat, buildable site offers unique flexibility to develop a single custom estate or two separate residences. Two additional renderings feature elegant 4,500-square-foot designs—each envisioned for one of the 0.51-acre lots. These supplemental plans are examples of how the property can be developed in dual ways, with further design and customization available in collaboration with Cunningham Architecture, Inc. Situated on West Moreland Ave—one of the most coveted and expansive streets in Chestnut Hill and Philadelphia—this property benefits from an address synonymous with prestige. The street is renowned for its impressive width, mature tree canopies, and stately, turn-of-the-century mansions that echo a rich architectural heritage.

A 12-minute walk along the charming, cobblestoned Germantown Ave leads to the Chestnut Hill shopping district, where boutique shops, cozy coffee spots, eclectic eateries, and artisan studios offer a vibrant urban lifestyle combined with suburban serenity. The lot is fully equipped with essential utilities—water, gas, electric, phone/cable, and septic sewer—simplifying the development process. Whether you choose to create one magnificent estate home or two complementary residences on the divided parcels, this property provides an exceptional foundation for a landmark residence.
