Charming 4 BD, 2.5 BA expanded carriage house with a detached three car garage, on a private lot, in picturesque Wissahickon. From the moment you drive up, the attention to detail is obvious from the newly paved oversized driveway, professional landscaping and brick paver walkways to perfectly placed fountains and lighting. Slate roof, brick exterior and vinyl shake siding as well as the wrought iron fencing only add to the curb appeal of this home. The formal foyer sets the tone with crown molding, recessed lighting and marble surround gas burning fireplace. Crown molding and recessed lighting continue into the large living room with ample natural light from recently upgraded dual pane vinyl windows which can be found throughout this home. Off the living room is a spacious dining room for everyday use and special occasions alike. The large eat-in kitchen features ceiling height cabinetry, granite countertops, gas cooking and stainless steel appliances and a cozy window seat with built-in storage. Convenient to the kitchen is a pantry for additional storage needs as well as a powder room. Upstairs the primary bedroom has a large walk-in closet and a private balcony and shares a hall bathroom with a secondary bedroom perfect for a home office or nursery. Two more spacious bedrooms connected by a large jack and jill bathroom with separate soaking tub and tile shower as well as laundry round off this level. The clean and well maintained unfinished basement provides ample storage with built-in floor to ceiling shelving and access to a utility sink. Outdoor retreat is a must see to truly appreciate this well planned area including extensive hardscaping with multiple patios, a koi pond, open grass areas, a covered pergola with a tv as well as a swim spa and outdoor shower. The three car detached garage is a unique feature to this area and includes a car lift and an air compressor with access to each of the three bays. This property truly has it all, including easy access to the hiking and biking trails of Fairmount Park and the Wissahickon, dining and shopping options near Manayunk, public transportation and major highways allowing for an easy commute both to and from the city.
