Property Description
Take a trip back in time with this quintessential and rarely offered stone twin home in Philadelphia’s historic Germantown neighborhood. Less than 1% of homes in the entire zip code offer the grandeur in size and character plus the generosity of land as does 522 E Locust Street. Floor to ceiling windows & shutters at the porch entrance, wood floors, trim and banisters, plus the 12’ ceiling height will put you in awe. Gracious deck off the side & rear, overlooking the massive lawn, plus the 3rd floor guest suite with 2nd kitchen, 2 full bathrooms and 2 bedrooms means you can host your heart out. Main floor laundry and at least one full bathroom on every floor including in the partially finished basement, makes daily living super convenient. Grow your own vegetables in the garden to save a trip to the store and add a touch of nature & calm to urban living. Two fun features of this marvelous home include a custom dog house underneath the main stairs & an artistic homage to knob and tube wiring in the exposed ceiling in the first floor den. The majority of the mechanicals & systems in the home are up-to-date (100% of the electric was rewired, roof/catwalk/shingles are 3-4 years old, ½ of windows were replaced, the water heater is from 2020, the boiler is 4 years old and has 3 zones, and a French Drain was installed for most of the basement perimeter). All that’s left is to polish it up and call it your own!
