Property Description
**open house 6/9 cancelled** Set amidst the serene, tree-lined streets of Philadelphia’s coveted Cedar Park neighborhood, 520 S 46th St presents an opportunity to own a stunning historic home with beautiful moldings, tall ceilings and large windows. Nestled on a tranquil block within the prestigious Penn Alexander school catchment. Upon arrival, the home’s historic facade, tall ceilings, large windows that allow sunlight to stream in, and stunning woodwork are a nod to the home's 1923 provenance. This home encompasses three stories, with 5/6 bedrooms, and 4 bathrooms, epitomizing elegance, character and charm. Stepping through the sunlit covered porch and vestibule entry, you're welcomed into a spacious living area adorned with refined details, including a brick fireplace and ornate wainscoting. The home's historic character is further accentuated by stained glass windows, ornate crown molding, refinished hardwood floors with inlay and original millwork framing the bay windows and the staircase. The original pocket door with stained glass separates the living room and the large dining room with a stunning coffered ceiling and detailed wainscoting, a wonderful segway to the updated eat-in kitchen. The kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, side by side refrigerator, granite countertops and a double sink overlooking the deck and yard. Beyond, a private and welcoming deck and garden awaits, offering the opportunity for indoor/outdoor entertainment and dining. Ascending the stunning staircase, a generously sized guest bedroom is currently being utilized as a den. With hardwood floors, built in shelving, crown molding, and a charming decorative fireplace it is the perfect spot for cozy movie nights or would make a stunning bedroom. The remainder of the second floor is being utilized as a primary suite, featuring a spacious bedroom, adjoining office/dressing room and a sleeping porch- perfect for exercise, a sunlit sitting room or closet! The bathroom on this floor features an updated marble stall shower with charming vintage tile surround and soaking tub. On the third level, three additional bedrooms await. Each is generously sized and offers ample closet space. A hall bath is shared and features a claw foot tub with white subway tiles with black accents for a classic black and white aesthetic. A full size laundry room with sink completes this level. The walk out daylight lower level is partially finished and features a brick faced fireplace, tons of storage and a powder room! Outside, the vibrant Cedar Park neighborhood beckons, with its eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, and community parks. Conveniently located near major transportation hubs, renowned educational institutions and medical centers such as HUP, CHOP, Penn, Drexel, University of the Sciences, and Clark Park with its fabulous Farmers' Market and events. This historic home offers a rare opportunity to experience timeless elegance with all updated systems such as new roof (2023), new high-velocity HVAC (2022), and electric panel rewired (2023) in a thriving urban setting. This area qualifies for both Penn and Drexel’s Home Ownership program grants for employees (confirm details directly with individual programs to see if you qualify).
