8616 Evergreen Place is in the heart of Chestnut Hill at the Top of the Hill. It is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, updated twin built-in 1887 by the architect Robert R. McGoodwin. This home is located on Evergreen Place which is an intimate cul-de-sac with an independent neighborhood feel inside one of Philadelphia's most desirable zip codes. The house has a very calming view of a beautiful garden in the back with mature plantings and a privacy fence. You will see this property's charm and value. Also, the front porch has a garden where you can sit for an afternoon drink. The first floor has a living room with a fireplace, a dining room, and an eat-in kitchen with new appliances. A bathroom, the primary suite, and an office or sitting room are on the second floor. The third floor has 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. The residents of the cul-de-sac all follow an unwritten rule to use the parking spot in the front of their home. Come see this light airy home with ample living space. In addition to all the above, you will love the location. It sits back privately on a charming street that is one of the quietest in Chestnut Hill. A short walk away to SEPTA regional rail and surrounded by great local spots like McNally's Tavern, Chestnut Grill, Bredenbeck's Bakery, Cake, The Fresh Market, Chestnut Hill Coffee Company, and much more are on this iconic and historic downtown strip. You'll be just a short drive from some of Philadelphia's most beautiful outdoor attractions including the Morris Arboretum and Wissahickon Park, and right around the corner from Pastorius Park!
