Property Description
Every now and then, a truly special and inspiring home comes on the market. This is one of those times! A former church listed on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places, the space was taken down to the studs and totally transformed into a functional and beautiful living space, while the magnificent bones remain intact. This is a stunning example of adaptive reuse done right, a collaboration of Studio Torres and local developer Baker Street Partners, who has a deep love and experience with church conversions. They worked with the East Falls community and historic preservation guidelines to ensure that the new space would honor its rich history and also blend in seamlessly into the desirable East Falls neighborhood. The result is a stunning home that offers every modern convenience in a one-of-a-kind space, as well as coveted all-on-one floor living that is so popular and rare. Enter through a grand double doorway on Midvale Avenue into a wide open concept living room, dining room and chef's kitchen. You will immediately be taken in by the soaring ceilings. This space will make your jaw drop and will impress your guests every single time you welcome someone into your home. The kitchen has an extra large quartz center island and ample countertops, stainless appliances, soft close drawers and lovely fixtures. There is a private outdoor patio in the back.. You will find three spacious bedrooms, 2 beautiful bathrooms and a hallway powder room. The master suite with fireplace is a great room with high ceilings, en suite bathroom with stall shower, and walk-in closets. There is a basement for additional storage space. This special home also occupies an idyllic location on the corner of McMichael Park, a lovely green space that serves as a centerpiece of the neighborhood. There are plans in the works for a beautiful wooden playground/playspace to be added to the park and there is a public library down the block. Just a 15 minute drive to Center City via Kelly Drive or I-76 and a quick 20 minute train ride into town, with abundant street parking in front. Tax abatement pending. Homes like this come around once in a lifetime, so schedule your showing today!
