About This Home
As of October 2014Here is your opportunity to own a rare, mid-century international contemporary home built on the coveted Stotesbury Mansion gardens. This home offers a multi-tiered yard filled with mature, blooming trees and bushes, including a rare Franklinia tree, one of only 1,000 left in the United States. The ambiance starts upon turning onto Widener Avenue, a picturesque street dotted with similar contemporary style houses and preserved statuary of the former estate. You are greeted by the charming stone wall as you enter the driveway, but it doesn't stop there. Enter the living room with wood burning fireplace which flows into the newly expanded and renovated kitchen, complete with new appliances, granite counter top, door to side yard and patio, and a large island with 5 bar stools. The current owners have removed the wall between the kitchen and dining room to open up the first floor living area. There is a great circular flow to this home. The kitchen, dining room and spacious living room with fireplace work nicely together for entertaining. The enclosed sunroom can be used as a family room or first floor office. The second floor has 3 spacious bedrooms and two full baths. A graciously sized master bedroom with its own private bath is on the upper level, and two of the bedrooms have built in shelves. The basement includes plenty of storage, an outside entrance, and a space which could easily be finished to add an additional play area, rec room, office, etc. The two tier yard and garden has 2 patios for entertaining. The 2nd tier yard is a paradise, complete with play set. To top it all off it has Central AC! Located in award winning Springfield Township and neighboring historic Chestnut Hill.
