About This Home
As of April 2021This quintessential mid-century modern home was designed in 1954 by Frank Lloyd Wright fellow, Robert Bishop. The property has been included in several local house tours including: 20th Century Chestnut Hill, a Tour of Important 20th century residences and Philadelphia Architects "the Houses they live in Tour". Tucked away on a quiet street in one of the prettiest neighborhoods in Chestnut Hill, the home is conveniently located just 3 minutes walking from a trail head of Wissahickon Valley Park, and 5 minutes walking from coffee, restaurants and the Chestnut Hill West train station. The home itself features an open floor plan and an abundance of natural light. It is thoughtfully sited to take full advantage of the natural surroundings, including a beautifully landscaped yard with various exotic tree species like Cherry Blossoms and multiple species of Magnolia. The Master suite sits on the North wing of the house and features separate his and her bathrooms with a large walk in cedar closet while the remaining spacious bedrooms/bathrooms are located on the South wing and feature built-in closets. The updated kitchen includes granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and overlooks an charming breakfast room. The main hub of the house consists of a large family/living/dining room distinguished by a double-sided gas fireplace and floor to ceiling glass sliders with views of the spectacular outdoor grass courtyard. The home also has a two car garage and additional parking in the driveway. This home can be made available for shorter term rentals or fully furnished!
