About This Home
As of August 2021We are delighted to offer for sale an absolutely exquisite custom home in one of Chestnut Hill’s most desirable locations. Built just 2 years ago by Blake Development, one of Philadelphia's finest custom builders, on just under an acre. Tucked in the midst of 37 acres of green space preserved in perpetuity by The Natural Lands Trust, at the edge of Fairmount Park, this is an opportunity not to be missed. The home is designed with a thoughtful open floor plan offering approximately 7100 square feet on three levels. Exterior materials include board and batten, Hardie plank, Wissahickon schist stone and a cedar shake roof providing a traditional Pennsylvania farm house style, combined with a contemporary architectural design. Enter the very gracious foyer, with spectacular eat-in gourmet kitchen and family room with stone fireplace to your left. Study, living room with fireplace, dining room and powder room to your right. Enjoy the fabulous park views from a covered, screened porch. Kitchen features include Wolf and SubZero appliances, large island, and custom cabinetry with marble countertops. The mudroom features built-in cubbies, a large food pantry, and second powder room, attached two car garage. Upstairs, a spacious master bedroom suite complete with large walk-in closet, master bath with soaking tub and shower. Designed for today's living in mind the three additional bedrooms, all with ensuite baths. Generous laundry room, ample storage and hardwood floors throughout. Large lower level, beautifully finished with high ceilings, game room, bar, media/sound system, gym and wine cellar. Outside a woodland paradise with mature landscape plan, privacy wall and pool with flagstone surround and terraces. Just steps away from a world class sports facility, hike or bike in the wilderness of the Wissahickon trails, all the time just a short walk to Chestnut Hill shopping, restaurants, schools and a short train ride to Center City. *8 years remain on real estate tax abatement on improvements.
