A classic through and through, the home offers beautiful hardwood floors, front to back entrance hall with a handsome staircase, deep window sills, a lovely marble living room fireplace and paneled doors throughout with brass knobs. Enter and be greeted by a sense of spaciousness and order. To the right is the gracious living room with built-ins and the fireplace as the focal point. Off this room is the sun room/den with its unique stone floor and three walls of mullioned windows allowing light to flood in. Here the outside seems to come in. To the left of the center hall is the pretty dining room with its sense of casual formality opened to a truly wonderful, well-planned kitchen with expansive counters, tons of upper and lower cabinets, deep drawers, Viking stove and Bosch dishwasher. A powder room is just off the kitchen as is an outside exit to the oversized one car garage. Upstairs there are 3 exceptionally spacious and sunny bedrooms. The primary bedroom features an en suite ceramic tile bathroom with a stall shower while the other two bedrooms are served by the full hall bathroom. Closet space everywhere is amazing. The large 2nd floor landing adds to the home's spaciousness and brings in more light. The full basement is open and airy with natural light, outside entrance and houses the home's well cared for mechanicals (heat, central air, hot water heater, panel for the 200 amp updated electrical service) and laundry. There is plenty of room for storage. New roofs were installed in 2019 and 2022. Outside the grounds are lovely with front and back yards, mature shrubs and plantings, several sitting areas including a delightful stone patio for outdoor dining and relaxing just off the kitchen. 3938 Netherfield Rd is just a stone's throw to Thomas Jefferson University and Penn Charter. Other private and public schools and institutions of higher learning are nearby as are two train lines. Center City is 15 minutes away. Do not miss this pristine home with its timeless charm and staying power!
