8122 ARDLEIGH ST Philadelphia, PA 19118

This is simply a wonderful home!! 3 bedroom, 1 bath so sunny end-of-row with Central Air in the heart of the Chestnut Hill village. Step behind an artfully planted green privacy hedge at the sidewalk to discover this well-cared-for 2-story brick home with an inviting freshly painted front porch. In the living room, one sees original honey-colored beautifully finished random width pine floors, built-in bookshelves on an exposed brick wall and ceiling fan. The dining room is large enough to offer a sumptuous feast. The pine floors extend into the bright kitchen with good storage including handsome hutch, gas cooking, brand new refrigerator, stainless steel sink with garbage disposal, 2 year old dishwasher. Built-in storage shelving and cleverly placed desk with filing cabinet sit before the brand new french doors leading to a sunny deck built in 2017 and a deep fenced nicely landscaped rear yard. It is important to note that the windows of the first floor--some fitted with chic plantation shutters!--bring abundant light into the whole first floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms: the master bedroom has multiple closets and ceiling fan; the middle bedroom currently functions as an office/guest room with ceiling fan; the sunny rear bedroom has closet and ceiling fan, too. The full bath offers the original tongue-in-groove wainscot, a shower over the claw-foot tub and newer toilet and sink cabinet. The basement is unfinished for utilities, laundry with washer and dryer, and storage. Both Central Air Conditioning and high-efficiency gas furnace were installed in 2014. The central plumbing stack was replaced in 2019. The main sewer line from house to street was replaced in 2016 with 10 year warranty. 8122 Ardleigh Street is perfectly located in walking distance to everything Chestnut Hill.
