Step into the charm of this elegant three-story stone twin home located in the Wissahickon neighborhood of Manayunk. Lovingly maintained and restored, the beautiful character and original features of this over 3,700 square foot home are endless! Entering into the vestibule and through the glass panel french doors, your gaze is drawn to the refinished original hardwood floors that span the entirety of the home. Enjoy original solid wood doors throughout, restored brass doorknobs, and handcrafted plaster crown moldings and medallions framing the 10-foot ceilings. Double doors lead into the front living room centered by one of the four marble fireplaces. Gorgeous solid pocket doors open up into the piano room, receiving lots of natural light from a set of three leaded bay windows. Through the hallway you’ll find a coat closet and tiled powder room, before entering the dining room framed by a set of floor-to-ceiling windows, a perfect space for entertaining. The kitchen was tastefully remodeled in 2020, equipped with a Tuscan stainless steel appliance package with gas range, farmhouse sink, subway tile backsplash, and floating shelf and island made of reclaimed wood salvaged from a 1700s Philadelphia church. A spacious pantry provides plenty of storage. For relaxing outdoors, unwind on the spacious covered side porch or back wood deck, surrounded by a lush garden. A long private driveway leads to a three-car detached garage, providing ample storage and parking. Inside the home, head upstairs using the main hall staircase or the hidden original butler staircase, bringing you up to the second floor housing three bedrooms and the first full bath. All three rooms are spacious with oversized windows, ceiling fans, and single closets. The primary bedroom includes another of the marble fireplaces and front bay windows. The hallway includes a sitting area great for a little reading nook. Heading up to the third floor, you’ll find three more generously sized rooms–perfect for bedrooms or a home office–the 2nd full bathroom, and a large walk-in closet. The sizable basement provides space for an at-home fitness area, plus ample storage, and has an updated waterproofing system (2021) with lifetime warranty transferable with title. Wissahickon is the ideal pocket neighborhood for anyone looking for easy access to major highways, convenient public transit to Center City, and close proximity to East Falls, Manayunk, and Roxborough, with the history and tranquility of the Wissahickon Valley Park. Situated two blocks from a trailhead and the iconic 100 Steps, with miles of trails for walking, biking, and hiking, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of city living and nature in an amazing location. Walk one block to the Wissahickon train station, Dottie’s Donuts, Lucky’s Trading Co., or find Main Street Manayunk, with dozens of local shops and restaurants, just a 15-minute walk away. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of history in the heart of the Wissahickon!
