In a tranquil, exclusive setting just a short walk from the greens of the Philadelphia Cricket Club, this residence conveys tasteful, comfortable sophistication from the moment you turn into the beautifully landscaped driveway. A circular drive leads to a welcoming entrance and foyer. The interior is well outfitted with upgraded millwork, moldings and lighting throughout the main living spaces. An expansive living/dining room with multiple seating areas opens to a newer sunroom. This part of the home accesses a very private rear courtyard-style patio, providing natural light from three sides and great flow for entertaining. The living room also has a woodburning fireplace with antique wood surround. A white-on-white kitchen with tumbled marble backsplash, island with cooktop and breakfast bar, wine chiller and bar sink is very functional. Accessible from the kitchen and main living area is a study/den with built-ins and a fireplace with tumbled marble surround. Private quarters consist of four bedrooms. Two on the first floor share a full bath with neutral, like-new finishes. The main suite is located up a half flight of stairs and has a private balcony, bath with jetted tub and a two-person shower with body sprays and skylight. The fourth bedroom now serves as a dressing room for the main bedroom but can easily be a bedroom again. Outside, perennial plantings enhance this home on every side, with mature trees and shrubs providing a serene view. This home offers many additional amenities, from a 2+ car garage, to custom blinds and shutters to solid wood doors, generous closet space, a first-floor laundry, lawn sprinkler system, central fire and security, and more. A rare opportunity in Chestnut Hill.

Residential Single-Family Detached-1 District
The RSD, Residential Single-Family Detached districts are primarily intended to accommodate detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RSD zoning be applied in areas where the land use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Code includes three RSD districts that are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements.
