Old World Charm in Elkins Park! Enjoy this romantic center-hall stone colonial, c. 1930, that harkens back to a gentler, more gracious era, one that blends yesterday's charm with today's personal expressions of convenience. This stately solid-stone colonial and its lush gardens blend and harmonize yesteryears elements with modern day architectural upgrades in all the right places: kitchen, baths, mechanics! It is complete with generous rooms, high ceilings, an inviting outdoor patio, a one-and-half car garage and off-street parking, all handsomely sitting street level offering almost direct sunlight in every room. Entering into the center hall, you will find the living room and its stately fireplace to the left, and to the right, a formal dining room with glass French doors which open to the outside overlooking the flowering bushes, itself adjacent to a butler's pantry with newly painted cabinetry in Chinese porcelain blue. Anyone who cooks will love the NEW kitchen, designed to perfection from the ground up. This signature kitchen was built with precision and purpose. Its articulating fixtures and stainless-steel considerations that follow countertop lines and its built-in designer appliances are aesthetically pleasing to the eyes and represent a respect for food. Each of the appliances is thoughtfully designed to prepare, preserve or be cleaned in the best ways possible. It offers the ultimate in gourmet convenience with its superb European style and warm, open and sunny feel, complete with high-white Shaker wood cabinets, metal hardware, double door stainless refrigerator, 5-burner gas stove, dishwasher, microwave, Coretec-Grandure oak flooring, chic white subway tiled backsplash, perimeter Silestone countertops in charcoal soapstone and polished quartz with a suede-like finish, farm sink and much more. Upstairs you will find a master bedroom suite, a full master bath and decorative moldings. This home lends itself to a myriad of uses from, from an elegant residence to a modern family home consisting of more than 3500 square feet of interior living. ALL the classic elements were brought back to life in this house with its 6-bedrooms, 3-full baths, 1st floor powder room, includes home office (an absolute necessity with the rise of telecommuting), lower-level full laundry situated in a clean and dry finished basement, 1/2 bath and big backyard. This house has been freshly painted in muted neutral colors that complement the lovely, refinished oak and pine floors throughout. The lyrical harmony of the hues from the garden matches the pops of color inside, tying the interior to the lush, mature gardens outside which includes spectacular lilacs and peony trees, absolutely gorgeous! This home is immersed in enchantment, the aesthetic is consistent: clean and simple lines, natural materials utilized in a very sophisticated, modern way. The owners have incredible taste and an appreciation for beautiful, interesting rooms, but they are also cool and casual.
