Property Description

Welcome Home - This is truly a one of a kind! Built in c.1860, this home was originally the 'Gardener's Cottage of the "Lewis and Martha Taws Estate" and is located on the edge of the highly desired Blue Bell Hill in West Germantown, steps from Wissahickon Park, Lincoln Drive and walking distance to the Tulpehocken Train Station. Step inside this beautifully restored Gothic Revival home and you'll feel the care that was poured in as you are greeted by a beautiful oak staircase, hardwood flooring, custom casing and trim-work, living and dining spaces that can comfortably accommodate a full family gathering and a kitchen that is selfie-worthy. The eating and entertaining areas were carefully planned for maximum enjoyment complete with an oversized 'gathering' island, beautiful kitchenaid appliances complete with a chef's 36" cooktop and downdraft vent, microwave-drawer and in-wall oven. The sitting and circulation areas showcase the custom wet-bar beside the original fireplace (setup to receive a gas insert) and a gorgeous re-imagined hardscaped and garden patio with a fenced in yard. The conveniently located 1/2 bathroom is tucked away next to the kitchen and the basement is full-height and unfinished (to accommodate your storage needs, a work-out room or many other uses). Up on the second floor you will find 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The primary has a private balcony/deck that overlooks the property, private full bath with walk-in shower, vaulted ceilings and custom closets. The amount of planning and care that went into this gem truly needs to be experienced in person. Schedule a private showing or attend one of our open houses. This is NOT one to miss!
