Light and space in abundance: More than 2 acres, in the woods, in the city!! 2 lots, side by side, each more than an acre. The FIRST LOT: 805 Wolcott Drive, (tax ID #092146582), offers a beautiful custom home surrounded by vistas of woodlands and natural landscape. Built in 1988 as a refuge and residence different than any other home in its Chestnut Hill community. With 2,480 square feet, it is an example of how to use space and light to maximize the comfort and enjoyment of its occupants. The residence offers an airy loft/studio space and a huge primary bedroom with ensuite bath on the second floor. The first floor's public rooms are graced with paladian style windows overlooking deck and woods,, and two more rooms and a full bath invite flexibility of use. Every window shows off the green park-like grounds around it. The SECOND LOT: 801 Wolcott Drive, (tax ID #092146580), immediately adjacent to the first, is on an acre's wonder of green--just trees, wild shrubs and grasses--ready to be used according to the imagination of a new owner. Both properties are accessed by a private drive off the public street. This location, in a community that offers easy-to-use commuter rail and distinctive restaurants and shops, is a surprising out-of-the-way paradise just up the hill from the natural area of the Wissahickon Creek section of Philadelphia's Fairmount Park. Easy to show. Sellers flexible on settlement date.
