Property Description
This historic home has been loved and cared for with attention to its time period treasures. Built with chestnut hill stone, swaddled with a large open wrap-around porch, perfected with oversized and leaded stained glass windows, deep window sills, pocket doors, weathered pine floors, and high ceilings. Although recorded as being built in 1945 research dates the house back to 1899 according to the Montgomery County Board of Assessment office. The characteristic traits of this home reflect the unique workmanship of the 19th Century. Upon entering, the well appointed foyer area greets you into a large family/living room with bay windows. Through double pocket doors, you will find a spacious dining room where large family dinners create memories. The updated kitchen boasts a textured ceiling equipped with a double farm sink and period perfect access to laundry, quaint half bath and mud room. The bedrooms on the 2nd floor are flanked with bright light due to the number of windows and perfect morning sun along with access to a full bath. The 3rd floor is draped with built-ins and deep windows that light up the creative architecture along with newly renovated full bath, all of which resemble a Nantucket Island vibe of white, sky blues and graceful grays. Not to be missed is the large carriage house/garage adorning a slate roof and a perfect compliment to this historic property. With the attention and love that 217 Roslyn Ave has received, it will be easy to move right in and be the next generation to own this historic beauty. By the way, 217 Roslyn Ave, originally 107, before development, was one of the first homes built on the street. The word Roslyn, in German meant rose, and legend has it Roslyn Ave at one time had hundreds of rose bushes on its borders before development, thus the reason for the street name.
