Property Description
This stunning 1948 carriage house was completely renovated by the current owner over the past 19 years into a gorgeous urban retreat. Originally built as a garage for the large house at 155 Bethlehem Pike (a.k.a. 204 Lynnebrook Lane) designed by architect George Wharton Pepper, Jr. for the distinguished Philadelphia lawyer Schofield Andrews of Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll. Surrounded by lush landscaping and stone walls, it offers complete privacy with access to all of Chestnut Hill's many popular amenities. The first floor has a large living room/dining room with gas fireplace, a gorgeous kitchen with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinets, and granite counters, an adjacent sun-filled family room, and a full bath. The kitchen & family room have ceramic tile floors with radiant heat to keep you warm and cozy on cold winter days. On the second floor are a large master bedroom with walk-in closet, a second bedroom now used as an office, a spacious hallway with laundry, and a fabulous large bathroom with glass shower, separate whirlpool tub, marble counter, and ceramic tile floor, shower & tub surround. The beautifully landscaped 6/10-acre lot has specimen trees, perennials, roses, hydrangeas and other shrubs, a small pool, fountain and multi-level stone patios creating several garden "rooms," inviting you to relax and unwind.
