This charming and elegant home was custom built by Peacock and Platt of Philadelphia for its original owners, Dr & Mrs Henry Walker of Edinburgh, Scotland in 1941. You’ll feel as if you are strolling through Europe when you walk up the brick pathway that leads to the front entrance. This picturesque home features an enchanting ivy covered brick façade, along with the cedar shake roof and cedar siding, exuding a feeling of heartwarming charm. An abundance of well manicured, mature lush landscaping covers the entire property. As you enter this home, you are greeted by the foyer with french tile and a turned staircase that is beautified by a custom wrought-iron railing. To the right, the expansive living room features hardwood floors, 9ft ceiling, crown molding, a wood burning fireplace complemented with Mercer tile, access to the back deck and oversized windows that allow the sunlight to fill the room. To the left of the foyer you’ll find the elegantly decorated dining room with hardwood floors and ample space for guest seating, perfect for dinner parties and holiday gatherings. Enjoy a cup of morning coffee in the gleaming white kitchen with adorable breakfast nook and a door leading to the front brick walkway. Off of the foyer is a cozy den featuring a beam ceiling, the perfect place to curl up with a book or watch your favorite movie. A tastefully decorated powder room completes the first floor.
