Tucked away on its own bluff, but still in the midst of all the vibrancy of Chestnut Hill, this house is a literaland figurative hideaway. A fine example of Second Empire Victorian, this single-family stone house sits way above the street; and offers off street parking, a beautiful level grassy yard, an expansive covered porch, and three floors of high-ceilinged living. From the driveway parking, enter the bright sunroom with exposed stone walls, floor-to-ceiling windows on two sides, and easy access to the stone patio andthe sunny gardens. To the left is the recently updated kitchen, a first floor laundry room with sink, and the necessary first floor powder room. There is a separate entrance to the house that enters the laundry area. A perfect space for off loading children, groceries, pets, etc. The remainder of the first floor, on either side of the center hall, is made up of the dining room and living room. Elegant and luxurious, remnants of the Victorian era remain, but the rooms have been updated for 21st century living. Up the main staircase to a sunny landing, you will find the primary bedroom, with fireplace, a spectacular bay window with exceptional views of green and the street below. There is an adjacent dressing room that easily handles the most extensive wardrobe. There are two more bedrooms and one bathroom, with tub/shower combination, on the second floor. Up to the third floor, one finds two more sizable bedrooms and a recently updated bathroom with a walk-in shower.
