Handsomely updated "English Village" Tudor Row on charming street between the magnificent architecture of Historic Overbrook Farms & the approximately 150 lush acres of woods, streams & valleys of Fairmont Park's Morris Park. One of the best finds in the City! Influenced by the City Beautiful Movement, developers McWilliams and Meloney (1920s) envisioned well-crafted English Cottage style residences on tree-lined streets close to Center City yet evocative of an intimate village ambience. This 3BR, 1 and ~ Bath house is solidly constructed in stone, brick, stucco and newer siding. Elevated above the street, a grand porch with rustic stone columns leads to the generously sized Living Room with corner stone fireplace and beautifully restored hardwood floors. An elegant Dining Room with classic architectural details opens to the Living Room. This leads to the magnificently updated Kitchen, which boasts ample cabinetry for storage and ease of use, stainless steel appliances and small Breakfast Room with access to side deck. The Second Floor offers an open Hall with Three Bedrooms with generous closet space. The Main Bathroom can be accessed from the Hall or Master Bedroom and has vintage features. The Basement is partially finished with high ceilings, plenty of storage, Laundry, ~ Bath, Cedar Closet, Utility Room and access to a large Garage with garage door opener. The rear Ally provides access to the garage and driveway for additional parking and a small lot for gardening. Many upgrades include newer roof and siding. Convenient location to Center City, the Main-line & major routes 1, 3, 30 & 76. Stroll past nationally registered residences to the R-5 train line at Overbrook Station or local trolley stops. Trail Entrance to the marvels of Morris Park lies a block down the street while the grand Spanish Inspired Architecture of the Overbrook School for the Blind creates a dramatic backdrop to the English Village Streetscape. One of a kind residence on one of the most appealing blocks in the City!
