We are extremely proud to offer 9012 Crefeld Street, a truly magical property; originally designed by Brockie and Hastings, with further additions and alterations by Tilden and Pepper, two of the most notable architectural firms in Philadelphia’s rich architectural history. Built in 1903, the house is truly unique in that it was planned so that every room except one has a view of the Wissahickon Valley Park. Amazing! “Grant’s Hill” is a magnificent residence, beautifully sited on .97 acres. The first floor features a brightly lit, gracious floor plan with coveted architectural details and moldings, meticulously and lovingly maintained. Large entry hall with a lovely staircase, formal living room, dining room and a handsome paneled library, all with fireplaces. Gourmet kitchen with Viking and Subzero appliances, large family room also with fireplace, opening onto terrace. Upstairs, in addition to a large master suite with a fireplace, two floors of bedrooms, baths, offices and comfortable living spaces. Fantastic apartment above three car garage with separate entrance perfect for office, in-laws or au pair. Immaculate basement with paneled media room, with well appointed wet bar and powder room. Outside, beautifully designed stone walls, mature perennial gardens, blue stone terraces that will simply knock you out. “Grant’s Hill” is notable for its history and for the opportunity it offers today to enjoy an exceptional lifestyle, in a leafy, private setting, just a short walk to the Chestnut Hill village, shops, restaurants and the coveted Wissahickon trails. It simply doesn’t get any better than this!
