Property Description
Love your life while working from home in this stately Colonial Victorian on a corner lot in the affluent Elkins Park community. A short walk to the Melrose Park Septa Station or a mile drive to Elkins Park Septa makes for an easy commute to Philadelphia, Trenton and surrounding areas. Built in 1908, this home is loaded with Architectural Detail thats sure to please! Purposely positioned, the daylight sun warms this home in winter while the mature trees keep the house cool during the summer months. You will enjoy colorful sunsets from the front porch which sits high above the street. This 6-bedroom home with 4 Full Baths, has an added bonus of having numerous permissible usages. Today it serves as the primary residence to the current owner and is also the business location of their Leopold Mozart Academy. Notice the lovely manicured grounds as you walk towards the front entrance. You have an enclosed vestibule before entering into the grand foyer with turned staircase and decorative fireplace. You cant help but be impressed with the detailed, period crown molding, high ceilings, stained and etched glass windows. The oak wood floors carry through most rooms with some having a black walnut inlay around the perimeter. To your right upon entering are French doors leading into the Formal Dining room with antique wall sconces for light in addition to a lovely chandelier. A second set of French doors take you into a quaint breakfast or tea room. Kitchen is updated with granite counters, plenty of cabinets, tile floor and white appliances. An over-sized full bathroom can be found near the backdoor entrance to the Kitchen. To the left of the Foyer is the Living Room/Parlor complete with bumped out sitting areas on either side and a pair of matching glass doors leading to additional rooms, currently being used as music classrooms. Practical sliding glass doors in the main classroom leads to the driveway which is easily accessed off the side street, Stratford Ave. The second floor Main Bedroom has gracefully curved walls and ensuite full bathroom. There is a hall bath on this level and 2 adjoining bedrooms currently being used as offices. The three bedrooms on the 3rd floor share a full hall bath. Additional storage space in the full partially finished basement where you will find the Laundry Room and the convenience of an elevator which travels to the kitchen. This elevator comes in handy when moving files, supplies or furniture to the basement level. There is also a bilco door giving you exterior access. 2 sump pumps were installed in 2007 making this level suitable for storage and more. Newer Gas Furnace and 2 Lennox heat pumps provide economical heat and cooling with 3 zone HVAC all of which have been recently serviced. Detached 2 car garage with electric and water has stairway access to 2nd floor of the garage for more storage or other purposes.
