A RARE OPPORTUNITY IS HEREfor a lucky buyer who wants to live in one of Germantowns signature stone homesAND enjoy a valuable rental income! Situated in the Tulpehocken Historic District of West Central Germantown, this extraordinary house (locals call it the mini-castle) is perched high on the tree-shaded corner of Wayne Avenue and Harvey Street surrounded by lush gardens. Looking at this impressive house from the outside, you would never guess that it actually contains two beautiful 3 Bedroom 1.5 Bath homes situated under one well-maintained slate roof. Built as a large single mansion in 1887, the property was divided in the mid-20th century into two completely separate twin homes. It is the perfect situation for living in one home and renting out the other. The first residence (facing Wayne Avenue) is distinguished by its extensive gardens, wide front steps, and turreted stone faade, which invites you to explore within. Passing through the massive Dutch front door, you enter a light-filled living space with soaring ceilings and hardwood floors, evoking the grace and charm that can only be found in Philadelphia homes of this vintage. The first floor contains the turret-enclosed Living Room, the Powder Room, the central Dining Room or Parlor with large ornately mantled fireplace, and the eat-in Kitchen, which has custom-made beadboard cabinetry as well as art-deco pink enameled cabinetry and pink stove and a convenient main floor Laundry. The second floor contains three spacious bedrooms and a full bath. Perhaps the most stunning room is the turret-enclosed Primary Bedroom that is a true sanctuary, serenely overlooking the grandeur of the garden and neighborhood through French doors that open onto a romantic Juliet balcony. All of this adds up to a supremely liveable and beautiful home. In addition, there is ANOTHER lovely 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath stone house that is part and parcel of the property! Facing Harvey Street, this second twin home also has amazing curb appeal, plus its own pleasing interior with hardwood floors and high ceilings. The second twin has a wonderful Sitting Room, formal Dining Room, Powder Room Butler Pantry and updated Kitchen on the main level, while upstairs there is an alluring sleeping porch found off one of the bedrooms. All of these features along with three fireplaces make this a charming and exceptional home in its own right! What could be better than to move into a dream home and have a built-in income stream right away! With the Waldorf School Campus across the street, the G.W. Hewitt Castle next door, the Wissahickon Woods close by, and Ultimo Coffee down the blockthe location is unmatched in allowing you to own a piece of Philadelphia's past while enjoying modern living.
