Property Description
Once in a lifetime opportunity to own a Classic Philadelphia Mansion featuring all the original architectural elements PLUS all the Modern amenities!! Enter this completely restored 35' wide home through a double front door into a proper vestibule & foyer. The 12+ ft ceilings, grand stair, custom wood & Lincrusta (pressed leather) walls & crown molding are the next incredible impression. North Wing offers large living room featuring marble fireplace welcoming your guests warmly. Through a hand crafted panel wall, the LR opens to the incredible "Cupola Room" featuring a fully restored & hand crafted stained glass skylight, fireplace & view of amazing private garden!! South Wing leads to a private office, formal dining room w fireplace & original mantle, then onto a state of the art Chef's Kitchen complete w Marble Farm Sink & Counters, handcrafted cabinetry, & appliance package to make Julia Chid drool. This one of a kind kitchen features an eat-in breakfast room as well as additional Butler's Kitchen & Pantry. The first floor is complete w easy access to oversized private garden leading back to available Carriage House w 3+ car parking beneath the legally zoned 2 bed/2 bath modern guest house. Typically the basement would not be mentioned in such a short description but this lower level should not be missed; 200+ bottle custom wine cellar, walk out to the garden, clean dry storage, & fully updated/serviced mechanical systems! Back to the living space?the Second Level provides Master Suite complete w sitting room, sleeping room, walk in closets, 2 full bathrooms, living room, and "sewing" room?all oversized!! Third Level stairway landing even deserves a mention as it welcomes the Eastern View of St John Newman's Cathedral as the morning sun rises behind!! Really????...there's a view from the stair??!!?!! Continuing, Third Level provides four private rooms, currently used as guest suites, home gym, library, & essentially brand new Spa Bath! Fourth Level is "The Studio" but w it's custom crafted solid wood doors & steel hardware it's designed as a flex space to be transformed into a large community space or 4 separate rooms. A bonus "Servant's Quarters"!! In-laid oak hardwood floors throughout. Amazing masonry & tile work. Central Air. A historical gem that is in need of only one thing, the next occupants to draft the next chapters. You have heard before, "it's must see, too many features to describe"?this is maybe the first time ever that clich is true!
