This lovely Queen Village home sits on a quiet, tree-lined street, just minutes from the Meredith School and an easy walk to all the trendy restaurants, galleries and salons in this desirable neighborhood. Built in 1984 and designed by renowned architectural firm Horn-Blythe Associates, it boasts airy, light-filled rooms on all 3 floors. A gated walkway leads you to the house and its attached 2 car garage. From the foyer, you enter a big room with en suite full bathroom which can serve as either a bedroom or a study, with large closet, built-in shelves of American cherry wood, and a full, built-in entertainment center with big screen TV and Dolby sound. Sliding glass doors lead to a gorgeous Japanese-style garden, with fishpond and waterfall – a peaceful shady oasis in the heart of Queen Village, and the perfect spot for your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. From the foyer, a stairway also leads down to a full basement with ample shelving and washer and dryer. The second floor is the main living floor, with 3 open, airy rooms: foyer with built-in shelving, kitchen, and dining room / living room combination, with built-in buffet and wine storage, again of American cherry. The living room has a wood-burning fireplace with glass doors and Brazilian cherry hardwood flooring. A spacious deck, with room for a grill and table, overlooking the garden, leads off the well-appointed eat-in kitchen. The third floor houses the main light-filled bedroom, with walk-in closet and private entry into a serene spa bathroom, with whirlpool tub, a steam shower, double sinks and Brazilian marble counter. A second bedroom on this floor boasts another flower-filled deck overlooking the garden. This gracious home epitomizes the pleasures of life in Queen Village: a beautiful, peaceful space from which to enjoy the urban bustle and energy of this classic Philadelphia neighborhood.
