Property Description
Welcome to 114 W Abington Ave, a classic 5 bedroom, 2 and a half bath Chestnut Hill stone single with 1-car garage facing popular Pastorius Park, in a fantastic walkable location just 1.5 blocks from the Avenue. Lovely original details such as inlaid hardwood floors, deep windowsills and hand carved woodwork can be found throughout this charming home. Sit on the front porch, which is set up above street level, and listen to the Pastorius Park Summer Concert Series across the street, take a train into Center City for a play, or walk to the Avenue for shopping and dinner. Enter through the front door, with restored original leaded glass, to the dining room, with inlaid oak floors, crown molding and arched doorway to the living room. Sunlit from large windows, the living room features an additional entrance from the front porch, charming corner fireplace with marble and wood mantle, and nook with original built-ins, powder room and access to the basement. The living room leads to the renovated kitchen, which was expanded from the original footprint of the home with a tasteful and seamless addition. Featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a large island with seating, 6-burner stove with custom copper and bronze Rangecraft range hood, custom mosaic backsplashes, and breakfast room with built-ins and gas fireplace, and side exit to the rear patio. The second floor of this well-appointed home features a landing with storage under the stairs, 3 spacious and sunlit bedrooms, each with ample closet space, and a renovated marble hall bath with walk-in shower. The third floor offers 2 large bedrooms, a cozy nook that would be perfect for a sewing or crafts room, and a hall bath with original clawfoot tub. The basement offers ample storage space, a powder room, and laundry area, and can be finished off for additional living space or an entertainment area. The outside spaces of this home are truly special, with a large slate patio in the rear of the home, surrounded by lush plantings and gardens, that leads to the level side yard via way of a charming wisteria arbor. Spend warm weather nights entertaining family and friends, or simply relaxing listening to local birds in Pastorius Park. A coveted 1-car garage rounds out this special property. The super convenient location is just 2.5 blocks from the St. Martins train station, for an easy commute into the city, a few blocks from the Cresheim Valley trails of Fairmount Park, and just 1.5 blocks from Germantown Avenue, which boasts a vibrant shopping and dining district. Don’t miss this opportunity to make such a unique home your own!
