    Evergreen Place sits in the heart of Chestnut Hill at the Top of the Hill. Built in 1887 by renowned architect Robert R. McGoodwin, this updated four-bedroom, two-bathroom twin is situated on an intimate cul-de-sac with a distinct neighborhood feel inside one of Philadelphia's most desirable zip codes. A welcoming front porch, bordered by a lovely garden, provides an ideal setting to relax with a good book or enjoy an afternoon drink. Inside, the living room features a gas fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and the hardwood flooring that flows throughout the majority of the home. The formal dining room includes a built-in cupboard, providing an ideal space for hosting guests. The eat-in kitchen features marble countertops, a tile backsplash, newer stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar with a scenic view of the grounds. The second floor has two bedrooms, both equipped with ceiling fans, and a full bathroom complete with a marble floor and shower. The primary bedroom includes a built-in closet system, while the second bedroom offers versatility to serve as a sleeping space or a private home office. On the third floor, two additional bedrooms with ceiling fans share a full bathroom featuring a classic clawfoot tub, tile flooring, and traditional wainscoting.  A full basement with French Drain system provides laundry facilities, storage, and a convenient exterior exit with a full set of stairs. You will love relaxing and entertaining on your covered back patio. The backyard serves as a private oasis, where a brick walkway flanked by beautiful plantings leads to a private flagstone patio. This special home stands out for its exceptional charm and beautifully curated secret garden. The close-knit neighbors on the cul-de-sac share a cooperative arrangement to utilize the parking space directly in front of their respective homes. The current seller has kept meticulous care of the home -recent improvements include roof flashing reinforced and metal roof coated in May 2026, cedar shed and fencing replaced 2023 and a whole list of additional upgrades are available. The location is a 10 and is just a short walk from the SEPTA regional rail and all the shops and restaurants of coveted Chestnut Hill. HURRY!
