When you visit this beautiful updated 1870 carriage house, you'll feel as if you've been transported somewhere near the Mediterranean. Tucked away from Bethlehem Pike, this unique home sits perched above a gorgeous, tiered and landscaped garden that overlooks a lush valley below. The gardens were designed by the first president of the Garden Club of America and are registered on the Smithsonian list of Historical American Gardens. Entering the home, you'll find a flagstone foyer that leads to a first floor bedroom and full bath in one direction, and in another an updated kitchen with granite counters, and an elegant family room with a wood burning fireplace. French doors open to the awning covered, slate patio that is perfect for outdoor dining with a breathtaking view. The second floor has a spacious great room with magnificent tall ceilings, beautiful built ins, a wet bar, and a second fireplace. The primary bedroom looks out onto the gardens and the adjacent second full bath is tastefully updated. The Top of the Hill is a short walk away offering many great dining and shopping opportunities and the beautiful Wissahickon Valley is nearby with a plethora of trails to explore above the scenic stream that moved Edgar Allen Poe to write about its splendor. The Chestnut Hill West and East commuter rail lines are within blocks for an easy ride to Center City and the Turnpike and Blue Route are a short drive away.
