Welcome to your dream home nestled in the tranquil and welcoming Franklin Forest neighborhood. This is a rare opportunity to live in this sought out location and this home, sold AS IS. Crafted by a family whose legacy spans the Philadelphia skyline, blending the craftsmanship of ironworkers and artists, this residence has been a haven for cherished gatherings and celebrations. >>Approaching the asphalt driveway notice the expansive two-car garage before you. Venture up the sidewalk towards the home’s main entrance, and be greeted by flourishing gardens, mature trees, and the soothing melody of nature. >>Upon reaching the front porch, enter the home’s main entrance, immediately feeling the expansiveness of the vaulted cathedral ceilings and open floor plan.>>To the left of the entrance lies the owner’s suite, thoughtfully designed for comfort. Vaulted ceilings and large windows define the bedroom, while the attached bath offers a spacious layout and thoughtful amenities, including a separate water closet for added privacy. Additional features for this main bath include a bathtub with a shower, two large closets, an extra large mirror, and a double sink vanity with plenty of storage space inside. The skylight above the vanity lets in beautiful natural light.>>Turn right from the main entrance and enter the heart of the home - the kitchen. Bathed in sunlight through beautiful bow windows, the kitchen is a culinary haven. Custom stained glass cabinet doors, ample counter space, a double sink, and under cabinet lighting fill one side of the kitchen and the adjacent cooking area boasts more hardwood cabinets above , and built-in cutting board counters on either side of the stove. Stand over the sink to look through the wide and open ledge that allows you to stay connected with anyone in the living room while cooking. Only steps away is the spacious living room/dining area that features a gas fireplace with white marble hearth.>>From the dining room, step into the sunroom with wall to wall windows that offer panoramic views of the large backyard. This space is versatile and would make a great playroom, yoga/meditation space, additional entertaining room for guests, or even a quiet reading lounge, as it is separated by sliding glass doors from the rest of the home.>>Exploring further, find the second and third bedrooms, located steps from the dining area, each bedroom offering spacious closets and plenty of natural light. IN the same hallway, a second full bath features a stand-up shower with glass doors and a well-lit vanity.>>The spacious garage, most recently utilized as a multi-specialty workshop, offers ample storage and utility. Pegboard helps organize tools, hardwood cabinetry is set above the long workbench and a large garage closet exists in this space, while still leaving room for two full size vehicles. An entrance from the garage into the home leads you back inside, a few feet from the laundry room and basement stairwell. Notice the huge hand-painted mural of an Italian vineyard, stretching up the wall to your right, as you descend the stairs.>>The finished basement has an open floor plan, with a beautiful custom wooden bar, ideal for entertaining. Across from the bar space, a pre-constructed fireplace surround exists, ready for a gas or electric fireplace insert if desired. A built in workbench is tucked away in another corner of the basement, providing a quiet space to create. This still leaves much more space for a full living room, workout space, and/or a home office area for anyone who works or studies remotely.>>Outside the back door of the home, a large patio flanks the back side of the home and overlooks a sprawling wooded backyard. A decade-old grapevine thrives next to the back porch and a garden box provides space for growing herbs or other produce.>>Two matching sheds, provide ample outdoor storage space.>>This property, in the Franklin Forest neighborhood won’t last long, schedule your viewing!!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
