Original charm galore paired with updates hand-picked with an artist's eye, plus fantastic outdoor space with a separate studio tucked at the rear, make this Germantown twin a real standout. High ceilings, pine floors painted a serene blue, and much of the original millwork run throughout. Tucked into the lush landscaping is a walkway and front steps to the vestibule entrance, where an original arched-windowed interior door opens into a hallway with staircase ahead and a curved plaster wall with a doorway to the main living space. An extra-long living and dining room with four windows and drum light fixtures leads to the kitchen, which was fully updated around the original coal stove and hearth (now decorative only) and hand-painted geometric floor. Ample cream cabinetry, including paned-glass uppers and a large pantry; butcher block countertops; matte black composite Kohler sink with gooseneck pulldown faucet; white subway tile backsplash; and stainless steel appliances including a five-burner range with griddle burner, Bosch bottom-freezer fridge and Whirlpool dishwasher create a workspace that is as functional as it is stylish. The rear den with bamboo flooring has additional storage and access to the powder room, making it a great option for a guest room. It opens to the large fenced lawn with rain barrel; tucked behind a whimsical tree trunk ringed with mature hostas there’s a separate studio/workshop space with a skylight and lofted storage. There’s also a lovely gated side garden that connects to the front–a great setup for outdoor entertaining. Back inside, the sun-soaked upstairs with original banister and spindles has paned transoms over every door and an extra-large hallway closet with fun vintage wallpaper. The bathroom has vintage blue ceramic tile flooring and tub surround with Mexican tile details to complement the Talavera sink. Each of the three bedrooms has original arched-sash windows, and the large front primary bedroom has bamboo floors. This home has been well-maintained and lovingly updated in the eight years of the seller’s ownership, including a new roof and complete rewire. Super-convenient to all the greenspace the Wissahickon offers, this block of Church Ln is also just off Germantown Ave, putting Uncle Bobbie’s Coffee & Books, Attic Brewing Co., Wyck Historic House, and a new Weavers Way Co-op location at your fingertips.
