Welcome to 35 E Gravers Ln, a 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath home on a corner lot in the heart of Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia. Behind its white picket fence and mature street trees, 2,964 square feet spread across three finished floors, with 9-foot ceilings on the main level. A covered front porch with columns opens onto a bluestone walk framed by mature perennial gardens and the white picket fence. Around back, a private bluestone patio sits under a pergola strung with a shade sail and string lights, alongside a level lawn, raised planters, and a crape myrtle, with a deck off the rear entry by the mud room. The living room centers on a gas fireplace with a tile surround, flanked by glass-front built-ins. From there, the dining room sits in a bay with double doors to the side, carrying the home's period character into a space built for entertaining. The updated kitchen features cherry cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. A window over the sink looks out to the garden, and a slate-tone tile floor runs from the kitchen into the mud room. A peninsula seats two and opens straight out to the mud room and back garden, keeping the layout connected without closing off the workspace. A powder room just off the mud room adds a pedestal sink, a dark slate tile floor, and a run of transom windows for natural light. Upstairs, the second floor holds three bedrooms. The rear-facing primary bedroom offers hardwood floors and treetop views over the garden, with a renovated full bath just steps away, a double vanity, mirror, and a glass-enclosed shower finished in mosaic tile with a marble-look surround. A front bedroom brings in light through a deep bay window and keeps its original trim and hardwood floors, flexible as a bedroom, den, or home office, and a third bedroom completes the floor. The third floor offers two more bedrooms and a full bath, set apart from the rest of the house for a quiet, top-of-the-house feel. One bedroom features built-in shelving flanking the window and a window seat, while a separate flex room with its own built-in shelving works as a home office or media room. The third-floor bath carries white subway tile to the chair rail with a penny tile floor, a pedestal sink, and a full tub. A basement provides laundry and additional storage. Gravers Lane sits in the heart of Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, one block from the shops and restaurants on Germantown Avenue and two blocks from the Gravers Lane station on the Chestnut Hill West Line. Walk to coffee, dinner, the farmers market, and the Wednesday night crowd on the Avenue, then be home in five minutes. Wissahickon Valley Park is minutes away for running, hiking, and biking. Set on a quiet, tree-lined corner, the home delivers walkability without the traffic, a fit for a buyer who wants a real neighborhood, historic architecture, and a train into Center City without depending on a car. A Chestnut Hill home that pairs original 1921 character with everyday convenience, inside and out.
