Property Description
Calling all Mid-Century Modern Enthusiasts. Situated on a serene wooded lot at the end of a cul-de-sac, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a stone mid-century modern beauty in a quiet and lovely community in Elkins Park. This home offers original details such as paneled walls, terra cotta and flagstone tile flooring, soaring ceilings and a statement stone wall at the heart of the home on both levels. Ready for its new owner to bring some of the aging parts of the home up to date, this home will be the canvas you are looking for. An impressive foyer with beautiful flagstone flooring and high ceilings opens into a dramatic living room with floor to ceiling windows and a fireplace nestled into the full fieldstone wall. The stone wall ties in with the stone exterior, bringing in the indoor-outdoor feel this style of home is known for. The eat in kitchen has terra cotta tile flooring and lots of original charm. The dining room can accommodate a large party comfortably for any occasion. This home presents the possibility for one-level living with 3 good size bedrooms, two bathrooms and laundry on this floor. The third bedroom is being used as a study but could be easily converted back. The primary suite has an en-suite bathroom and huge walk-in closet. The substantial staircase that leads to the lower level from the foyer is a work of art. Downstairs there is a family room area with a fireplace and sliding glass door leading to the backyard, a half bathroom, two large, dry storage areas, a separate semi-finished room and a large closet. This level has so much potential and is ready for updating. The house currently has a two-car stone garage that is in disrepair and will need to be replaced. Needs updating and TLC but offers unique opportunity for special buyer. Priced accordingly. Home is being sold "as is".
