Welcome to this bright and sunny twin located in a fabulous location in the heart of Chestnut Hill.

The front porch is perfect for relaxing and taking in the sights and sounds of the friendly neighborhood.

The eat in kitchen has lots of cabinets, gas cooking, a built in microwave and leads into a concrete addition that is a blank canvas that near neighbors have turned their own into full bathrooms, powder rooms, or a breakfast room where one can enjoy the sunlight and view of the backyard.
