Property Description
An Absolute Unicorn Of A Property— Inside & Out, For The Discerning Buyer Who Demands The Best
This is an extraordinary, one-of-a-kind property, with exceptional craftsmanship, custom millwork, and uncompromising quality throughout. Basically Rebuilt from the ground up 10 years ago, this home was thoughtfully constructed with premium materials and high-end finishes throughout (including all new electric-plumbing-HVAC, spray insulation, Anderson 400 Series windows, additions & roofing, EVERYTHING) and detailed custom wood trim finishes at literally every turn—a level of detail and craftsmanship rarely found, even in homes commanding several million dollars!
The main level welcomes you with a beautiful living room featuring a fireplace with custom built-in bookcases and hand-scraped h birch hardwood flooring that flows into the formal dining room, highlighted by custom bench seating backed by a large bay window. The STUNNING family room showcases a vaulted, beamed ceiling, custom trim and millwork, dramatic loft display, and recessed LED lighting. In fact, recessed LED lighting is thoughtfully installed throughout the entire home.
The gourmet kitchen features Medallion cabinetry, quartz countertops, a hammered copper sink, black stainless-steel appliances, custom backsplash, and a large island with seating. Custom high-end finishes continue throughout, from the flooring to the doors to the extensive trim and woodwork.
The second floor offers three bedrooms, including two with vaulted ceilings and skylights, while a fourth bedroom is conveniently located on the main level which can also be used as an office etc.. Two beautifully renovated modern full baths, plus a stylish main-level half bath, complete the living spaces.
The finished basement adds even more versatility with a full-size wet bar, electric fireplace, and laundry area.
Outside, this huge private corner lot is a true retreat, featuring professional landscaping, attractive fencing, landscape lighting, two patios, a tranquil pond, and a charming dollhouse-style shed. A 4+ car driveway leads to an impressive detached garage that is finished and heated, complete with its own bathroom and attic.
Additional highlights include two-zone 90% efficiency heating and two-zone central air, providing year-round comfort throughout the home.
There are homes that have been renovated, and then there are homes where virtually every detail has been thoughtfully designed and custom crafted. This is the latter. With a level of craftsmanship, materials, and custom finishes rarely seen in today's market, this is a property for the buyer who appreciates the very best—and understands the value of owning something truly exceptional and difficult to replicate.
Excellent location nestled along one of the outermost blocks of Fox Chase neighboring Rockledge & Pine Valley, very close proximity to the train station and Pennypack Park. Better than new construction, rarely does a home of this caliber come to market, it is truly in a class of it's own.
