Property Description
Charming and beautifully maintained stuccoed Cottage-style Residence designed by Architect L.V. Boyd in 1915 in the Heart of Historic Overbrook Farms! Nestled on tree-lined Sherwood Road, this property is handsomely landscaped with front and rear fenced yards, brick driveway and 1 car detached garage. The house has an English Country aesthetic with gabled roof and dormers, chimney pots and brick floored front porch with multi-light door access to Living Room. The interior offers a comfortable layout and fine craftsmanship. The Foyer entrance opens to the Living Room on the left with elegant gas Fireplace, built-in bookcases and access to front and side porches. To the right from the Foyer, via French doors, is the formal Dining Room with French doors opening to a delightful Sunroom. The updated eat in Kitchen has access to the Mudroom and back patio. There are dual staircases to the Second Level. The Second Floor has a master suite, with attractive Full Bath and two Bedrooms (one presently used as an Office with gas Fireplace) and a classic tiled Hall Bath. The Third Floor has three additional Bedrooms and Full Bath. Handsome hardwood floors can be found throughout along with ample closet and storage space! The Basement is partially finished as a playroom with access to Utilities and separate Laundry Room. Overbrook Farms is a Nationally Registered Historic District and a prime example of turn-of-the century railroad suburbs and is considered the beginning of Philadelphia's Main Line. Developed by Wendell & Smith in the1890s, it boasts a remarkable diversity of architectural styles by the best architects of the day (i.e. Horace Trumbauer, William & Walter Price, Charles Barton Keen, Milton Medary et al.) and is bordered by 147 lush acres of Fairmount Park's Morris Park. It is conveniently located between Center City and the Main-line with easy access to public transportation (i.e. Train, Trollies and buses) and major routes 1, 3, 30 & 76.
