One of the most beautiful homes in the Roxborough/Manayunk area. This gorgeous Victorian home was completely restored and renovated only 5 years ago with all its charm and character maintained for the perfect blend of old and new. Easy to fall in love with this home as soon as you see it, so be sure to look up and take time to appreciate the workmanship from a by-gone era. The grand exterior is a stately three story, porch-front home in beige brick with lots of detailing, brick corbels, front bow window, decorative Victorian moldings and trim, and fish scale roof shingles. The home has a beautiful stone wall in front for a formal entrance. The front porch is a large outdoor space with large wood columns, wood railing, a dramatic ceiling height and an up-close view of the intricate stained-glass window. The front entry features the original front wood door with the most unique center glass panel. Inside the formal entry vestibule you will find the original Trenton tile floor that was restored and looks amazing and ceiling-height transom windows that let the light pour in from the front of the house. Entering into the parlor (living room) you are greeted by the main staircase with its original newel post, high 10 foot ceilings, ornate wood crown molding and wainscoting. The light neutral paint on the walls highlights the large stained glass windows. The entire first floor is an ample space with lots of light and charm. Move through to the dining area with another stained glass bow window, a perfect conversation piece for entertaining and a wet bar complete with sink, electrical access and wine refrigerator. The adjoining kitchen is bright and open with ceiling-height cabinets with cushion-close drawers, top cabinets with glass front and lighted, pendant lighting, under cabinet lighting, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, dishwasher, gas cooktop, and garbage disposal. On the other side of the kitchen is a nicely appointed mud room that leads to the backyard with first floor laundry (washer and dryer included) and a powder room. Head up to the second floor by way of the winding back staircase and you will find 3 carpeted bedrooms in all neutral colors, all with ample closet storage and ceiling fans. Two of the bedrooms have bow windows which makes the spaces feel quite large. There is a bright full hall bath in a timeless traditional white subway tile as well.
