Description
A wrap-around porch leads to the entry vestibule. Inside,...If you’ve ever dreamed of having your own mini-estate in the city, take a look at this huge, sun-filled Victorian Queen Anne twin c. 1892 in the Cedar Park neighborhood of University City, West Philly - with a supersized 37’ x 170’ lot, a shared driveway and a 3-bay carport & garage! There’s a front garden in addition to the large rear yard, all surrounded by iron fencing to provide a great outdoor play space for young residents and pets.
A wrap-around porch leads to the entry vestibule. Inside, glamorous Victorian details include sparkling leaded glass, original chestnut woodwork, gleaming hardwood flooring with ornate borders, and a working, wood-burning fireplace. There's approximately 3796 s.f. of interior space on 3 floors.
Recent improvements include a high-efficiency heater plus a high-efficiency heat pump hot water heater. Electric has been updated and PEX plumbing installed. There's also a luxurious 4-piece 2nd floor bath with radiant flooring! A job change is taking the owner elsewhere, so the property is ready for a new owner to continue the decorating.
