Property Description
It's not often you find an English-inspired cottage in the distinguished Overbrook Farms neighborhood on the National Register of Historic Places. 6469 Woodcrest Road sits high above the beautifully landscaped street, nestled between the mansions of Overbrook Farms & the woods and streams of Fairmont Park's Morris Park. Upon entering through an open front porch and arched doorway to the living room, you'll be struck by the gorgeous hardwood floors, woodburning fireplace, and French doors. A large separate dining room with custom millwork and another set of glass French doors leads to a small deck (with room to expand around the home.) Enter the kitchen and you'll never want to leave the light-filled seating nook and pantry area. The kitchen boasts custom wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances (including a brand new refrigerator and newer professional Kitchen Aid dishwasher), gas cooking, and plenty of countertop space. From the kitchen you can access the back yard and garage below. Upstairs, an open hall leads you to 3 spacious bedrooms, all with hardwood floors, and neutral colors. The best part? Ample closet space (including an additional large hall closet). The vintage bathroom floods with natural light from the fully functional skylight. The basement, with its high ceilings, can accommodate an extra living space, in addition to plenty of storage, a washer/dryer, quaint bath with window, and access to the backyard, garage (with automatic opener) and driveway. The garage will hold two cars (tandem) and offers plenty of storage. Larger than most homes on the block, this architecturally significant home is move-in ready with the character you expect to find in a historic home, including original moldings, mirrored closet doors, some original light fixtures, and glass doorknobs. Influenced by the City Beautiful Movement around the turn of the century, developers envisioned well-crafted English Cottage style residences on tree-lined streets close to Center City Philadelphia. Close to public transportation (regional rail, bus and trolley), schools (Friends Central, Talmudical Yeshiva, Waldron) and universities (UPenn, St. Joseph's, Drexel), and an easy drive to Whole Foods and Trader Joes. This home is also located within the boundaries for Penn's Home Ownership Services. Come and take a tour today, as these homes sell quickly!
