Property Description
Here is your opportunity to own a home on one of East Falls' most sought after streets, often referred to as the "gingerbread houses" because of their English Cotswold Tudor design. Built-in the 1920's, these homes have graced many pages of print throughout the years. Each home is similar in design, yet unique with the owner choosing from a historical color palate and especially their garden plantings. These homes are registered in the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places and are part of the Tudor East Falls Historic District, preserving the rich history and architecture of the homes. As you approach you are greeted by the original curved designed front door with leaded glass window and the delightful front patio, a great spot to chat with neighbors and friends. Inside the home you will find a sitting area nestled in front of the original window, which also drenches the living room in natural light. A formal dining room and updated kitchen, with plenty of cabinet and countertop space to store all of your favorite cooking utensils, completes the first level. Located on the second level are two spacious bedrooms and a four piece hall bath with skylight and subway tile surround. Additional features in this home include; newer windows located on the back of the home, charming rear yard, full basement with mechanicals, laundry and outside access to the yard, wall unit air conditioning, stainless steel appliances and original in-lay hardwood flooring. This home is centrally located, offering an ease of commute to both Center City and the Suburbs. The regional rail line is just blocks away as well as major access roads, including picturesque Kelly Drive, one of Philadelphia most famous roads that curves beside the banks of the Schuylkill River. Don't forget to stop and enjoy one of the many restaurants or bistros located along the main corridors of East Falls.
