Welcome to 8107 Roanoke; a pristine 4-bedroom, 2-bath detached home nestled at the top of Chestnut Hill, directly across from Pastorius Park. Built in 1896, this absolutely move-in ready brick Victorian home with mansard roof has been lovingly cared for and immaculately maintained. A flagstone walkway leads you through the tastefully landscaped front garden to the private covered porch with mahogany hardwood flooring and painted woodwork. It's a perfect spot to relax and look out on the trees changing with the seasons in Pastorius park. Once inside, you'll note the beautiful hardwood floors, high ceilings and abundant newer Marvin windows. The bright living room flows into the large dining room (with a useful closet behind the corner china cabinet) and plenty of room for entertaining. Through a swinging beveled glass french door, you'll find a spacious eat-in kitchen with an island, stainless steel appliances, custom (Wood-Mode) wooden cabinetry, granite countertops and built-in butler's pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen is a bright family room that looks out into the fully fenced backyard through sunlit sliding glass doors. Off the family room is a full bath with a walk-in shower. Just outside is a large bluestone patio and garden which have been kept meticulously. The garden is full of flowering specimen trees and shrubbery and the yard boasts a mix of shaded space for entertaining and sunny space for play. There is also a convenient potting area tucked away along the side of the house. On the second floor are three sun-filled bedrooms, one of which has been modified with custom built-in cabinetry to house a washer/dryer. All the bedrooms have deep closets, and there is a hallway cedar closet for additional storage. A beautifully renovated full bath features a marble mosaic tile floor and a marble vanity. The large bedroom on the third floor is perfect for a home office and/or home gym. Newer roofs, multi-zone heat and plenty of storage space. The new owners of this home will be a short walk away from dining, shopping and all that the prestigious Chestnut Hill neighborhood has to offer. Close to the Philadelphia Cricket/Golf Club, Springside School, Pastorius Park and the Wissahickon/Fairmount Park, this house could not be in a better location. The regional rail is an 8-minute walk away and major highways, including 309 and the PA turnpike, are incredibly close by. Don't miss out on seeing this gem! Seller prefers an end of December settlement with rent back option through early-mid February. 2021-12-16
