Set on a beautiful 0.27 acre corner lot, just steps away from the charming shops and neighborhood restaurants on the Avenue. Two train lines into center city and the hiking trails of the Wissahickon are a few blocks away making everything walkable. Known as Philadelphia’s “Garden District,” Chestnut Hill is included in the National Register of Historic Places. The district includes the Stagecoach Theater, the Morris Arboretum and two Woodmere museums, and has its own Conservancy, community association, and public library. The district hosts dozens of street fairs and community events all year long. 3 East Chestnut Hill Avenue is currently an empty lot zoned for a single-family home and a detached garage. A buyer could keep this lot as open space, build a large, single-family home to sell or rent, or perhaps build a smaller home for use by extended family or as a personal studio. A purchaser of this property has options; they can choose to build a home of their own design or utilize the city-approved plans developed by the seller in conjunction with a premier local design-build firm. This is a dig-ready project with two completed home designs of varying square footage. Both designs include a detached garage and off-street parking that lead into a large open kitchen with mudroom, Butler’s Pantry and custom hutch with coffee bar. This is an outstanding opportunity for a commercial or residential buyer to create a dream residence in an unbeatable location. Completed and approved floor plans, elevations, renderings, material design options, construction documents, land surveys, land studies, permits and variances related to this work are all available upon request
