Property Description

Welcome to 38-40 E Willow Grove Ave; a quintessential stone twin offering 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 2 car parking half a block from everything Chestnut Hill has to offer. Built in the late 1800's, this Philadelphia classic perfectly captures the charm and elegance of its era while offering the modern comforts of today. Situated on an expansive double lot, 38 E Willow Grove Ave comes with established plantings and abundant space for gardening and outdoor living, making it a haven for those seeking a home in the Garden District of Philadelphia.

Inside you'll find over 2,400 square feet of living space with nods to the past like a wood burning fireplace, high ceilings, original hardwood floors and exposed brick, complemented by modern updates such as dual zoned central heating & cooling. All the windows in the home have been replaced, allowing for ease of operation and an incredible amount of natural light. What's more, the upgraded 200 amp service ensures the property is well-equipped to handle all your modern electrical needs, further balancing a home with historic character with the modern enhancements needed for the current times.

The kitchen was renovated in recent years, and offers ample space to cook, gather and store all your pots, pans and kitchen gadgets. The breakfast bar separates the kitchen and the dining room, allowing for an open concept type feel while keeping the formal idea of delineated spaces intact. An addition of the kitchen provides additional pantry space and a half bath as well as the laundry facilities for the home. Sliding glass doors fill the mud room with light lead to the 2 tiered deck and the deep and expansive backyard. The backyard has been fully enclosed making it ideal for 2 legged and 4 legged children alike.

The second floor offers 3 bedrooms with closet space, bay windows, and hardwood floors, along with 2 full bathrooms. The third floor offers 2 additional bedrooms and a 3rd full bathroom, ensuring that everyone in the house hold has plenty of space and separate bathrooms.

The basement houses the utilities and could easily be finished for those looking to make even more living space.

Chestnut Hill is renowned for its incredible walkability, allowing residents to explore a vibrant community filled with boutiques, cafes, and cultural landmarks with easy access to public transportation. The neighborhood's picturesque streets, soughtafter public school catchment, and welcoming atmosphere make it one of Philadelphia's most desirable areas. Experience the best of both worlds with rarely offered home — a historic treasure offering with all the conveniences of contemporary living, set within a dynamic and vibrant community walking distance to everything that makes Chestnut Hill the cherished treasure it is.
