Set on over 3/4 acre filled with lush plantings, lovely perennial gardens and flowering trees, this 4-bedroom, 4.5 bath modern Ranch style home enjoys a quiet top-of-the-hill location, and simply exudes warmth and charm. The sweeping governor’s drive welcomes you into the bright foyer, and opens to the large living room, updated kitchen and hallway to the bedroom suites. The spacious and open living room with gas fireplace and built-ins has access to the rear covered patio, and pocket doors into the dining room. Walls of windows in both rooms overlook the impeccably landscaped rear yard. The eat-in kitchen with large island features custom cabinetry, Viking range, built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a large mudroom/pantry with gorgeous honed soapstone counters, farmhouse sink and storage room. A sun-filled breezeway with slate floors and potting room offers access to the oversized garage. One of the bedroom suites with a new bath is also located in this wing of the house. Just off the foyer is a large study with walls of windows, a gas fireplace and built-in shelving. Two spacious bedroom suites, each with updated ensuite baths, can also be found in this section of the house. The owner’s suite features a brand-new bathroom with walk-in shower and radiant heated floors, ample closet space, and views of the lush yard. The partially covered rear slate patio overlooks the large fenced yard and will become a favorite place to relax and admire the incredible hydrangea, lilacs and cherry trees, or to watch the incredible variety of birds that pass through this area of town. This handsome home is just blocks from the heart of Chestnut Hill, two blocks from the train station, and boasts easy access to the Lavender Trail of Fairmount Park off of Crefeld St. Contact listing agents Jennifer Rinella and Michael Sivel for a private showing.
