The living room boasts floor to ceiling windows with a view of the private, fully fenced rear garden, a wood burning fireplace, and a glass door to the covered veranda. Flowing from the living room is a generously sized dining room. Pocket doors between the living room, foyer and dining room can be used to create a privacy when needed.

    "Chestnut Hill is a quiet neighborhood with many lovely old houses. However after living here for over three years now (coming from Spruce Hill area in West Philly) I have to say that I can't wait to move out. It's almost too sleepy; there's basically no good restaurants, most of Germantown Ave is empty stores that no one can afford, the grocery stores (Acme, Fresh Market) are never stocked with fresh items or they're out of what you need. Most importantly, I do not experience any neighborly behavior, in fact, quite the opposite. Walking around and taking the same train every day, I see the same faces, and none of them are friendly. Also, there is no one under the age of 35. There's an elitist, NIMBY attitude here that you should definitely avoid if you can help it!"
