Property Description
The most unique property in all of Manayunk/Roxborough, nestled within the highly sought after Wissahickon Hills section, is 385 Dawson Street. The main house is a three bedroom 1890s farmhouse with a gated brick driveway leading to the bi-level carriage house. Impeccably cared for and updated throughout the years, this property maintains the most original character; truly a suburban home in the city. An impressive stone retaining wall at entrance, stairs up to the front porch with original banister railings welcoming you into the main house. A light filled living room with built-ins through to a large dining room with a beautiful staircase. The original hardwood flooring, large windows and high ceilings throughout the first floor provides tons of natural light. Beyond the dining room is a half bathroom off the walkway into the kitchen, which also has a side entrance with an additional exterior porch. The kitchen features newer cabinetry and details, travertine tile floors, tile back splash and stainless steel appliances, an open layout with tons of cabinet and countertop space. At the back of the house is a study, or additional living space, with sliding glass doors to the backyard, a really tranquil setting. On the second floor are three bedrooms and an updated full hall bathroom. The main bedroom is at the front of the home with a secondary middle bedroom and finally a flexible space third bedroom with a bonus room and an enclosed porch! The bi-level carriage house, rebuilt in 2000 with new roof in 2012. Beautiful on the exterior and absolutely breathtaking at entrance with an open mezzanine staircase. A fully fenced in property you have to see to believe something like this exists in the city. Close to Neighbors Park, playground and splash pads, the Wissahickon train station, Kelly Drive, and all shopping, dining and events Main Street Manayunk has to offer. The possibilities of this property and location are endless. Do Not miss this opportunity!! Private showings start after the open house Saturday 11/6, 1-3.
