Property Description
Live in the heart of Chestnut Hill in this stately Queen Anne, designed and built by the Hewitt Brothers in 1889. Set off the street with a beautiful front garden, you approach the house from a circular drive, up the wide stone steps to an expansive front terrace. Through the double doors, enter the light-filled front hall with over-sized windows and fireplace (there are a total of seven fireplaces in the house). Straight back to the left of the grand staircase is the updated kitchen with ample work space, storage, and counter space for a quick breakfast and coffee in the morning. The spectacular sun room acts as an extension of the kitchen and houses the informal dining area and soft seating for everyday gatherings. Back to the grand foyer, you will see the formal living room to the left, with marble fireplace with carved mantel. From the living room, through the newly restored archway, is the formal dining room, with another fireplace and beautiful bay window. There is additional living space on the first floor: a warm wood-trimmed den with fireplace; the necessary powder room; the first floor coat closet; original butler's pantry, and large back room/mudroom that contains the first floor laundry area and is located behind the kitchen, inside the back door. The second floor consists of three bedroom suites each with its own bath. Completing the second floor are two large sun-filled offices, which could serve as additional bedrooms. The third floor houses four more bedrooms and two more bathrooms. Three of the bathrooms are newly renovated. There is a detached three-car garage at the back of the property. High ceilings, light-filled spaces, outstanding floor plan for entertaining. The grounds offer lush lawns, mature perennial beds, stately trees, and plenty of privacy. Walking distance to train, Chestnut Hill shopping and entertainment, Fairmount Park, and more. Time to live on one of the best streets in the City. The wide, tree-lined street has always been the most sought-after location in Chestnut Hill. This grand house sits in good company with others in the neighborhood, and offers the sophisticated buyer every modern convenience, in a house with timeless style.
