Property Description
Robert McGoodwin, the well known Philadelphia architect collaborated with Dr. George Woodward to create and develop the "French Village", from 1924 to 1931. 7305 Emlen is one of the most gracious homes of this particular project. The architectural details, size of the house, and spacious grounds create an exquisite property. The main rooms include the Living Room, Dining Room and Library, which are large and spacious. Additionally, there is an all glass Sun Porch with a flagstone floor. The updated eat-in Kitchen is spacious with exceptional light. There are four lovely bedrooms and four baths on the second floor including a hall cedar and linen closet. The third floor has four rooms and one bath. This home's fine architectural details include four fireplaces, arched entryways, plaster molding, Mercer tile, and a stunning wrought iron staircase in the style of Yellen. The completely enclosed yard creates three rooms of gardens: one area with a large fenced patio and fountain on the back part of the property lends itself to outdoor entertaining; a second walled cutting garden offers a great view from the Kitchen; and a final space with a fenced pool, patio, trellis and outdoor dining area complete these lovely grounds. The two car garage has storage above it. This well cared for property has newer heaters, custom storm windows throughout and a completely renovated pool and patio. The house is conveniently located near the train line to Center City as well as Fairmount Park and the shops of Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill.
