Welcome to 36 West Evergreen Avenue. This charming and spacious (over 1600 square feet!) 3-bedroom, 1-bath home located at the top of Chestnut Hill - one of Northwest Philadelphia’s most coveted neighborhoods. With a walk score of 88, this location offers the ideal blend of urban convenience and the village charm that makes Chestnut Hill so special. A covered front porch leads inside where there are original hardwood floors, a graceful staircase and a vintage dining room light fixture that add timeless character to the home. The dining room has plenty of room for hosting your next dinner party, and the sunny eat-in kitchen is spacious and ready for your improvements. Outside, there is a covered rear porch and a fully fenced yard—perfect for pets, play, a peaceful retreat, and/or your dream landscaping project. Beyond the garden gate, there is a space for temporary parking, and a section of the fence could be moved to create a full private parking space. Heading upstairs, you’ll find a versatile flex space which would make an excellent office, playroom, or home gym. Three spacious bedrooms and a bathroom with a tub/shower, and original skylight, complete this level. The unfinished basement provides generous storage and laundry space. Rest easy with a new rubber roof in 2023, as well as a new boiler installed in 2021. Just steps from the Chestnut Hill West train station and the best of Germantown Avenue shops, cafes, and restaurants, as well as easy access to the Wissahickon trails, public transportation and major highways. This home puts everything you need within reach. Bring your vision and personal updates to make this historic charmer your own. Taxes will be reduced to approximately $5,318 with the Homestead Exemption for an owner occupant.
