So stately and grand! This 7-bedroom home has been lovingly restored and features an open living room, huge dining room, chef's kitchen with GE Profile SS appliances, butler's pantry, powder room and 11' high large foyer leading to a grand staircase and wall of stained glass above a window seat for curling up with a book. This home is great for entertaining a few or hundreds from the Veranda in the front of the house to the multi-tiered deck and paved patio in the back. Weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, graduations or dinner parties, the home can handle it all with grace and elegance. There's even a sunporch for relaxing or family fun. The second floor has 4 bedrooms, a hall bath and a spacious master en suite bedroom and bathroom featuring a jetted tub with granite surround and over-sized marble shower, seat, and frameless glass door. The back bedroom has a deck, great for having a cup of coffee and reading the morning paper or take the back stair directly to the kitchen. The third floor has 3 nice-sized bedrooms, a cedar closet, large bathroom with a claw foot tub and wainscoting. This floor provides lots of storage, including 2 large walk-in closets and a large storage room. Crown molding, millwork, chandeliers, custom lighting along with gleaming hardwood floors and lots of light throughout the home. The partially finished basement provides additional space with a separate entrance. Overbrook Farms is a close-knit community offering so many benefits such as the Overbrook Train Station, Morris Park, public transportation to Center City and Main Line, the country's oldest continuously run civic association that provides House Tours of the impressive architecture and community's heritage, a ListServ, community website, special events and so much more. In less than 2 hours you can be in Manhattan, the Poconos or Atlantic City. This home is truly a gem.
