Introducing a hidden gem in the Colonial Germantown Historic District, coming live on Thursday 6/20. This spacious 6 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom Second Empire Victorian is a local history buff's dream. It's located across the street from the famous Wyck House, a 1690 National Historic Landmark whose rose gardens, festivals and farm you can enjoy, but 11 Walnut Lane boasts a fine history of its own. Built in 1900, this 2,900sqft stand-alone has exceptional curb appeal with a Wissahickon Schist exterior, mansard roof, and wrought iron hairpin fence. It was once owned by Mary Mullineaux, a Philadelphia painter and founder of the American Color Print Society, and its unique details and pristine original character shine through. Inside you'll find embossed wallpaper, oak floors, massive doors, ornate hinges and door hardware, transom windows, front interior window shutters, ornamental plaster moulding, ceiling pendants, and recessed cove ceilings. Beyond its historical detail, this house has been exceptionally maintained and recently updated. It has tons of natural light, as well as new systems and central air; primary suite with private bathroom; main floor powder room; a spacious yard, deck, and parking spot; large kitchen; full basement with storage; 11' ceilings; and over 8 closets. This extraordinary house is located within walking distance to multiple regional rail stations, as well as a quick drive to coveted locations like The Wissahickon Valley Park, Weaver's Way Co-op, the Germantown Cricket Club, Awbury Arboretum, Uncle Bobbie's Coffee & Books, Young American Hard Cider & Tasting Room, and Attic Brewing Company. Don't wait on this unique beauty. Start making your own history today.
