About This Home

As of May 2023

The Renaissance of Philly's beautiful neighborhood of East Oak Lane is alive and well in this lovely and serene Victorian charmer! Brimming with rare authenticity and delightful embellishments throughout this impeccably tasteful home- how wonderful to also find a natural paradise for gardening, romping about in a vast rear yard, and 'setting a spell' on a newly re-built Porch for the warmer months ahead. Enclosed by private greenery with towering and beautifully maintained specimen trees creating a commuter's paradise- this bucolic living adjacent to Montgomery County is a treasured find along the City's borders! Thought and care of present and past owners are evident everywhere: with gleaming refinished old growth Tiger Oak Floors, beautifully restored and painted plaster-walled interiors, energy efficient windows, newer insulation, and updated systems. But it's the fine architectural details that truly amaze: original Majolica tiles greet as you enter through the Foyer, also hosting a double set of impressive Entrance Doors with unique textured glass. An intricately built LR mantle with a decorative cove, as well as bay windows add both formality and friendliness back to today's design lexicon. The versatile spaces are well-suited to frame any style of high quality furnishings: Modern, Traditional...a welcoming canvas to add your own artistic style. Leaded glass Dining Room pocket doors and fancy China Closets delight in the DR. Enjoy an adjacent fabulous Butler's Pantry to serve guests, and beyond is the fresh Eat-in Kitchen with updated appliances, butcher block counters, and w/ convenient back extra storage in the rear Mudroom. Also, relish the authentic character of yesteryear with original, intricate tile work blessed with the depth of patina and fine craftsmanship...an irreplaceable, glorious greeting to start each morning. Upstairs, 5 generously sized Bedrooms serve, plus a bonus Art Studio with vintage sink and bead board walls- well suited for a possible Mother-in-Law Suite.  Find a charming clawfoot tub in adjacent Bath. Located in idyllic East Oak Lane and surrounded by a supportive Community of engaged neighbors- this rare turn-of-the-century home is quietly tucked away from the City's hustle and bustle- yet an easy commute to CC and the Airport.  Shop wonderful amenities in adjacent Suburbs but revel in LOW City taxes for this jewel of a Home and Property!
