About the Listing KURFISS1 - 3265207

Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined block in the coveted St. Martin’s enclave of Chestnut Hill, 319 West Mermaid Lane is a rare offering that seamlessly blends charm with thoughtful, modern living. Rich in character, the home’s classic architecture is complemented by a complete renovation that elevates both comfort and functionality. High ceilings, gracious proportions, and beautifully preserved details create an environment that feels both timeless and effortlessly livable. The first floor unfolds with a welcoming entry hall anchored by a fireplace, setting the tone for the home’s warmth and elegance. A sunlit living room opens to a covered front porch, perfect for morning coffee or evening unwinding. The formal dining room is a true showpiece, featuring custom millwork and French doors that lead to a serene sunroom. At the heart of the home, the bright and expansive eat-in kitchen is outfitted with premium Gaggenau and Sub-Zero appliances, separate work area, ample space for gathering, and a convenient rear staircase to access the second floor. Upstairs, the second floor offers a private primary suite complete with a sitting area, generous his-and-her closets, and a luxe bathroom with Samuel Heath brassware and a soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms are connected by a beautifully updated Jack-and-Jill bath featuring Waterworks fixtures. The third floor provides even more flexibility with two spacious bedrooms, an adjoining bath, and access to attic storage - ideal for guests, home office space, or creative use. The lower level of the home is equally well-considered, featuring a powder room, mudroom/exercise area, laundry, and abundant storage. Radiant heat floors provide warmth throughout the mudroom, kitchen, powder room, primary bathroom, and all second-floor bathrooms, adding a subtle layer of comfort to this thoughtfully updated home. Outdoors, the property is a true retreat. Lush, mature landscaping surrounds a charming third of an acre yard complete with a pond, patio, and even a treehouse - creating a setting that feels both peaceful and playful. A private driveway and shed add convenience and practicality. All of this, just moments from the boutiques and dining along Germantown Avenue, close to SEPTA for an easy commute, and within easy reach of local schools and the trails of Wissahickon Valley Park. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored home in one of Philadelphia’s most beloved neighborhoods - where historic character and modern ease come together in perfect harmony.
