    What's special

    This late 19th century, sun-drenched home offers exceptional architectural details and original features throughout, including five fireplaces, a leaded glass foyer entry, and lovely tile and millwork. This beautiful home has rooms galore for both formal entertaining and casual living, and the special nooks and crannies that come only with historic homes such as this?not to mention the magical backyard. Enjoy the lush grounds from either the south-facing screened-in porch, the out-kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows, or either of the two back patio's. From the open main hall you'll find the original staircase, equally well suited for grand entrances or sliding down the banister; the living room, formal dining room and classic library, each with a gorgeous fireplace; and eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances, original built-in cabinet, large center island and access to the powder room and finished basement. The second floor boasts the master suite with private bath and large dressing room/sitting area, two more large bedrooms and a hall bath. The third floor has three more lovely bedrooms, one with en suite bath, plus two large storage rooms. Bonus space in the basement includes a wine cellar, rec room with bar, and plenty of room for a home gym and a workshop. There is parking for at least three cars at the end of the driveway, but you won't always need to drive as the home is close to the restaurants and shops of Germantown Ave, a stone's throw to Wissahickon Park and a short walk to two train lines to Center City.
