426 E High St, Philadelphia, PA 19144

Welcome to 426 E High Street, a truly wonderful home in the heart of East Germantown. Just steps from the beautiful Awbury Arboretum, this property offers luxurious living in one of Philadelphia’s most historically significant neighborhoods. The home has a virtually ideal design. The light-filled first floor has high ceilings and an expansive open layout, with room for living, dining, and cooking in one fluid entertaining space. Right off the chef’s kitchen is a large backyard with Trex deck, mature and new trees, perennials, and a grassy lawn; just downstairs is a fully-finished, carpeted basement with powder room. The second floor has two large bedrooms and two full baths, one en suite bath (front bedroom) and one hall bath, plus a closet with high-end stacked washer and dryer. The top floor is the crown jewel of the home - a beautiful primary suite with skylights, walk-in closet, and spacious bathroom with soaking tub and shower. To top it off, there’s also a third-floor roof deck and wet bar at the top of the stairs, perfect for coffee in the morning and entertaining friends at night. The home was renovated with genuine craftsmanship in 2021 and has been lovingly maintained and upgraded by the current owners since then. Renovations by previous owners include: new floor joists, drywall, stucco, electrical supply and plumbing, windows, roof, two-zoned HVAC, water heater, and basement powder room. The current owners installed the third-floor roof deck, finished the basement with carpet, and have tastefully improved the landscaping, including cypress trees for added privacy. Germantown is seeing a huge amount of investment, with a new Weaver’s Way Co-op opening this spring, new condos and shopping opening at the old Germantown High School, and more.
