Property Description
Welcome to 6332 Drexel Road, a large and inviting historic home with an abundance of warm and welcoming spaces. This stunning stone and stucco twin features beautiful architectural details including doors, archways, and window seats. The expansive, covered wrap-around front porch sets the tone for this charming property.
Inside, the center hall colonial design includes a formal living room with hardwood floors to the left and a formal dining room with tray ceilings and a fireplace to the right. The kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, a breakfast area, and seating stool space. From the kitchen, a door leads out to a potting shed and a detached one-car garage. Back stairs provide convenient access to the second floor. The first floor also includes a powder room and hardwood floors throughout.
The second floor features two spacious bedrooms. The large primary bedroom includes a sitting area and is connected to a second room currently used as an office but could be a nursery or dressing room. The second bedroom has multiple windows and lots of natural light. There are two full baths on this floor. The third floor offers three more bedrooms, a laundry room, and a powder room, providing plenty of space for various uses such as an office, exercise room, or den. The powder room already has plumbing in place to add a shower. This home includes five bedrooms, two full baths, and two half baths, along with an unfinished basement.
The property also includes a private backyard, perfect for entertaining. The large L-shaped front porch is ideal for reading, relaxing, and socializing with family and friends.
Major improvements include a remodeled third-floor bedroom (previously a kitchen) and the addition of three new windows consistent with the original architectural design in 2010. In 2012, a new furnace was installed, followed by a new hot water heater in 2014, and exterior painting in 2017. The third-floor laundry/powder room was renovated in 2020, along with an upgrade to a 200-amp main electrical service with surge protection. The main water line to the house was replaced in 2021. In 2022, the entire house was rewired to remove all knob and tube wiring, and a new auxiliary breaker box was installed. In 2024, the house, including the porch and garage, received a new roof, new gutters, and downspouts, along with a Mainline Waterproofing Pressure Relief System (French drain and sump pumps) and recasting of basement walls.
Appliances were updated with a dishwasher and gas stove in 2013, a washer and dryer in 2019, a microwave in 2022, and a refrigerator in 2024.
Located in a family-friendly neighborhood close to Center City and the suburbs, this home is perfect for walking and hosting gatherings. The kitchen is a hub for cooking, baking, and chatting with loved ones. The welcoming living room and private backyard provide excellent spaces for entertaining and relaxation.
Don't miss the opportunity to own this beautiful, spacious home with a blend of historic charm and modern amenities.
