Property Description
Nestled behind a wooden gate on a serene and leafy street sits 307 Rex Avenue, a wonderful expression of 1920s colonial revival architecture and a house that simply feels like “home.” The property spans over 3,400 square feet and is made private by the mature trees, bushes, and stone wall that line the front garden. An enclosed stone patio runs alongside the house. From here, some of the property's many charming details can be seen: arched windows with brick sills, wooden shutters, and a handsome brick cornice that traces the roofline. A covered wooden porch leads from the patio to the inviting living space inside. Hardwood floors extend from the front living room into the adjoining dining area, where an abundance of windows fills the space with warm, natural light. A wood-burning fireplace with an elegant mantle and surround adds to the appeal. The eat-in kitchen is positioned at the center of the main floor and features stainless steel appliances, an island, and a skylight window perched above a breakfast nook. The kitchen additionally features a door that leads to the side patio — perfect for dining al fresco! A few steps down from the kitchen is the den, which could serve as a fitness room or informal living space; a laundry room and closets neatly frame this bonus room. A convenient powder room completes the first floor. Back in the living room, a staircase leads to the upper floors, which offer 5 spacious bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. The second floor houses the primary suite, a middle bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, and a third bedroom, which currently serves as a library. The primary suite is defined by an entryway hall that is lined with closets and an en-suite windowed bathroom with a tub enclosure, floor and wall tiling, and a farmhouse vanity. The library is lined with bookshelves and is complete with a wood-burning fireplace. The middle bedroom is a suite unto itself; it's both bright and spacious, with multiple windows between the bedroom and en-suite tiled bathroom. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms (for 5 in total) and a full bathroom that extends from the hallway. Additional storage space is offered in the basement, which is accessible from the kitchen. **PARKING** is a breeze with the adjoining driveway to the left of the patio. 307 Rex Avenue offers a “Top of the Hill” address that places the resident steps from the best shops, cafes, and restaurants in Chestnut Hill. Hikers will enjoy immediate access to the Wissahickon Valley Park, with trailheads on both Rex & W. Chestnut Hill Ave. A regional rail leading to Center City is only 0.2 mi. away! We look forward to showing you this lovely property and the inviting neighborhood that envelops it.
