Descripción de la propiedad
Philosopher Noam Chomsky offers: "Language is a process of free creation..." Well, this special Home must have indeed spoken to his own mind and heart throughout his formative years to create the thinker that he has become. Yes, those bookshelves were indeed built by his father and have continued to serve the fortunate dwellers of this warm and welcoming, handsome Tudor Twin. Located in the charming, green and architecturally significant Neighborhood of 'East Oak Lane' where Philadelphia meets Montgomery County- this 'refreshingly' Traditional Home reflects the richness and depth of Old World craftsmanship. A Sunny, tiled enclosed front Porch with re-glazed original windows greets. The Living Room delivers an embracing Hello with its grounding brick fireplace surrounded by decorative moldings, and a patina'd staircase as focal points. High windows allow for a private retreat, yet light still dances and sings throughout composing lovely dynamic moments within. Honeyed, hardwood Oak floors serve underfoot and a layered view beckons straight through the expansive, muted toned Dining Room; then onward to the tiled back Sunroom Addition- which fully frames the first-floor layout experience. The Exercise bike 'may have left the building' to prepare for its next owner, but one's imagination for how to enjoy this magical space surely has not...The adjacent Kitchen is delightful w/ newly laid flooring, wallpapered with vintage 'Pilsbury Doughboys' (please keep!), and freshly painted trim. The spacious lower level has just been expertly refinished with newly parged and whitewashed walls, sealed concrete floors, and installed sturdy glass-block Cellar windows, plus a brand new Electrical panel! Opportunities abound here for a user-friendly work or play space with additional direct access to the Backyard. Enjoy Spring's popping Daffodils, Summer Hydrangeas, and spots to grow Tomatoes. A Firepit surround invites friendly repartee. Back inside, ascend to the 2nd level with a generous Primary Bedroom, plus two additional rooms, and a lovely pale 'pink and grey,' Mamie Eisenhower-inspired(?), cheeryBath. Updated plumbing and a new vanity marry so beautifully withearlierfeatures- which beg to stay and Grace next generations to come. The 3rd floor is worth the trip! Encounter, not just 3 additional separate spaces to be used as desired...but rather: an erudite World to explore thought and culture. One feels privileged to experience these spaces- yet also truly allowed to claim them as one's own. Even the nurturing Clawfoot Tub seems to say (in Noam Chomsky's own words): "If we choose, we can live in a world of comforting illusion....." Enjoy low City taxes and an engaged community of neighbors; plus the best of the dining, shopping, and park amenities of the adjacent'Burbs. Easy commute on the nearby Regional Rail and Subway lines to Center City and onto the Airport- and your very own Driveway/ Garage at day's end!
