What's around 39 W Gravers Ln

About this property

Irresistable 4 bedroom 2 1/2 bath detached home in the heart of cosmopolitan Chestnut Hill. When Chestnut Hill was a small rural village in 1851, Sara Sines bought this lot. We know that by 1857, a two story dwelling existed on the lot. 162 years later, Sara Sines' little 3 bedroom 19th century house has been transformed with a 2004 addition into a much larger, inviting, open, and airy home perfect for 21st century living. And Chestnut Hill itself is one of America's most live-able communities with a lively main street filled with popular restaurants and unique shops. No more sheep are to be found wandering down the main Germantown Pike as in Sarah Sines' time! The owner of 39 West Gravers Lane can enjoy up-to-date living in a home filled with 19th century character and 21st century comfort that includes Central Air, combined kitchen and family room, master bedroom with master bath, almost all replacement windows, delightful private fenced rear gardens and patio. 1st floor: Entry foyer; large open living room with wood-burning fireplace; powder room; kitchen with commercial grade gas stove and oven, soap stone counters, deep stainless steel sink with garbage disposal, dishwasher, refrigerator, abundant cabinetry, carved cherry bar with 3 stools on one side, exit to side yard; family/great room with large closet off to one side and wall of glass looking out onto the gardens; double french doors lead to patio. 2nd floor: 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths including master bedroom surrounded by windows and spacious master bathroom with shower over tub, sink cabinet with granite countertop. Good closets throughout. 3rd floor: pleasing airy spacious room with views on all 4 sides, multiple closets/storage under the eaves. Perfect for bedroom, private office, or simply a hang-out at the top of the world. Basement: full, unfinished pleasant space for utilities, storage, work space, laundry with washer/dryer, high ceiling, all water-proofed with french drain and wall membrane. Gas hot water boiler. 40 gallon gas domestic hot water heater. 200 AMP electric circuit breaker service. Beautifully re-finished original pine random-width floors. New carpet on some of 2nd floor. The gardens: deep fenced rear yard with garden beds and mature weeping willow that is particularly showy in spring, slate patio and side walkway to the street. 39 West Gravers Lane has an "85" walk score.
