8132 ARDLEIGH ST Philadelphia, PA 19118

Own a little piece of Chestnut Hill history. Just a short block and a half walk to Germantown Avenue, this 3 story stone home with Italian aesthetic was built in 1895 by owner and contractor Louis Morasco. It was later added onto in 1929 and a garage added in 1954. The fenced backyard makes a private oasis, with trellis and stone walls - perfect for outdoor gatherings. Two Juliet balconies grace the front facade.
The living room faces Ardleigh street, and has a pretty gas fireplace with custom mantle, lots of bookshelves, and deep windowsills. The living room can be closed off from foyer with a set of pocket doors. The beautiful hardwood floors continue on through to the large foyer, that is big enough for seating, and into the dining room. The well laid out eat in kitchen features a gas cook top, double oven, built in microwave, island with stainless sink, plenty of cabinet space and an appliance garage. The kitchen has a doorway and pass through to a sunny tiled sunroom with outside exit to the backyard. Don't miss the tiled powder room with shower.
The second floor has 2 bedrooms. The large front bedroom has a Juliet balcony, while the back bedroom, with a wall of built in shelves, overlooks the garden. There is a large hall bathroom on the second floor.
The super big third bedroom is on the third floor, with balcony.
This unique single family home has been lovingly cared for by its current owner for 40 years. It's just waiting for you to move in and make it your own!
