Beautifully restored 1917 Tudor Revival offering over 4,200 square feet of living space on nearly one third of an acre. Originally converted into apartments during World War II, this exceptional home has been thoughtfully restored to a single family residence while preserving its original character. Extensive updates over the past decade include modern systems throughout while maintaining original woodwork, restored stained glass windows, and classic Tudor architecture. A gas line has been installed, allowing for an easy conversion to gas cooking. The home features 6 bedrooms, 4 full baths, 1 half bath, and three finished levels. The third floor includes a second full kitchenette, making it ideal for multi generational living, guests, or an au pair suite. Outside, enjoy mature landscaping with rare specimen plantings that create a peaceful setting. Located just two blocks from the trolley with convenient access to Center City, Penn Medicine, CHOP, Jefferson, and University City. Holy Child Academy is one block away, with Friends' Central School and Perelman Jewish Day School just a short drive. A rare opportunity to own one of Drexel Hill's most distinctive historic homes with the space, flexibility, and modern updates today's buyers are looking for. The current tax assessment may be higher than what you'd expect based on the purchase price. While this year's appeal deadline has passed, the new owner may be eligible to appeal in 2027 for the 2028 tax year. Listing agent is happy to help the buyer appeal after settlement if needed.
