Look what awaits behind stately trees and lush gardens on almost a quarter acre at the corner of Midvale Ave and Stokely St! Certainly one of the most charming residences in East Falls, impeccable and beautifully maintained, and one which enjoys an unusual history.

Certainly one of the most charming residences in East Falls, impeccable and beautifully maintained, and one which enjoys an unusual history. Built in 1902 as a one-story tea room, 3000 Midvale was one of the earliest buildings in the neighborhood. After at least one additional use as a real estate office it evolved by the 1920s into a single family residence complete with a 2nd story and the spaciousness for comfortable living. Current long time owners have polished this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home to perfection retaining the period character and charm of its early history. On the exterior it might be considered Tudor with its dark brick and timbering but inside the flavor is Victorian. Look for 10’ ceilings, large windows with light pouring in, 10” baseboards, arched doorways, hardwood floors, embossed radiators, curved staircase, and two fireplaces both with Mercer tiles. The first floor plan is flexible with a large reception room which could serve as a parlor or play room, a stately formal dining room joining the more casual living/family room just off the newer kitchen with granite counters, glass and slate tile backsplash, tons of cabinets and stainless appliances. The front solarium with views of the expansive beautiful lot and lovely pond is comfortable year round. Upstairs each bedroom is more charming than the next. The newer main bathroom features a black marble floor and glass block wall. Beautifully maintained the home offers a new furnace and hot water heater, 5 year old roof, recently parged and waterproofed basement with French drains, lined chimneys, recently painted exterior and much more. There is a curb cut for on-site parking. Penn Charter is one block away and Jefferson U, Mifflin School, several charter schools and the train are all in close proximity. Center city is only 15 minutes away. Truly a treasure! Sellers highly motivated to sell and will look at all offers.
