About This Home
As of May 2018Looking for something "kinda special"? Be sure to visit 8509 Widener Rd., located on one of the most interesting streets you will find in the Philly burbs. Situated on the former grounds of the historic Stotesbury Mansion, Whitemarsh Hall. Often referred to as "The Versailles of America", the estate was designed to impress! Midway from the magnificent gates on Willow Grove Ave. on the road to the mansion, visitors were treated to a grand Plaza and a framed view of the mansion off in the distance. The Stotesburys commissioned sculptor, Henri-Leon Greber to craft a grand fountain, book-end statues and a limestone balustrade. The Plaza is now part of Widener Road and just five doors away from 8509. Widener Road has a collection of two story, midcentury modern homes. With cubist elements, flat roofs, corner windows all melded into a hillside setting with established landscaping, these are not your standard suburban colonials! Similar in style, but each home unique. This home is an attractive blend of brick and stucco on the exterior. A brand new flagstone walkway guides you to the front entry. The main floor features a living room with fireplace (new chimney liner), an updated kitchen (maple cabinets, granite counters, new stainless appliances), a dining room, powder room and sliders to a large deck that runs the width of the house. Enjoy al fresco dining and privacy with a wooded patch and gentle creek at the back of the property. Ramp from the deck gives Fido easy access to the fenced rear yard. The basement level is finished and has an extra 300 square feet of living space including a full bathroom. Works as a Familyroom, 4th bedroom, in-law suite, exercise room,... Basement is a walk-out to a backyard patio. The top floor features the Master Suite with a renovated ensuite bath, (frameless shower, high end tile. Two other good-sized bedrooms and hall bath complete the level. New roof in 2013 was taken down to the base and has a transferable warranty. Gas heat and hot water, humidifier and electronic air cleaner. BQ Basements waterproofing system in basement, replacement windows throughout, upgraded 200 Amp electric... the major boxes have been checked off. Under two miles to Chestnut Hill for shopping, dining or easy access to Center City on their two train lines. Wyndmoor's Main Street now undergoing a fresh development. Well regarded and not too large Springfield Schools are a draw for the area. Be sure to check out the video.
