Property Description
Sunny, classic Mid-Century that has great walkability and designed by John Sweet and Milton Schwartz in 1955. This home has an incredible connection to the outdoors. The beautiful gardens are designed as true extensions of the rooms. The home is a true oasis with an ipe deck off the living room and flagstone patio off the kitchen to view the gardens. The walls of windows are expansive facing south east in the dining room, south in the living room and the ceilings are high throughout. It also is a rare example of a mid-century that still has its original integrity, but is combined with modern improvements. The materials and feel of the home is timeless. The compactness of the design is remarkable, but each of the rooms feel generous in size. The deciduous trees and overhangs allow the perfect summer light, and strong sunlight (and solar heat) throughout the winter days. The home is in a perfect location on a quiet block of other classic modern homes, it is steps form multiple entrances into the Wissahickon and a short walk to the heart of Chestnut Hill, and region rail station.

The home has low utility costs and is very easy to maintain with a wonderful moss front yard and established perennial beds surrounding. Owner is a licensed real estate agent.
