29 Willow Grove Ave
This inviting three-bedroom twin offers a wonderful combination of charm, comfort, and convenience. With a welcoming front porch featuring a loveseat swing, mature plantings that provide privacy, and a deck overlooking the backyard, the outdoor spaces feel like natural extensions of the home. Inside, tall windows fill the first floor with natural light—even on an overcast day. While the layout retains the traditional character of its 1924 construction, an open flow from room to room lets you see from the front entry all the way to the backyard. The living room opens through a wide passage to the dining area, which includes convenient access to a large coat closet. The recently updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, and basement access for additional storage. Just beyond the kitchen, a comfortable family room opens to the deck and the backyard, where a gate provides direct access to Roanoke Street with a one-block walk to Pastorius Park. Upstairs, two bedrooms off the hallway connect via an interior door, offering flexibility for a variety of uses. At the rear of the second floor, a smaller bedroom has been thoughtfully converted into a spacious walk-in closet with built-in shelving. The hallway bathroom features a tub/shower combination and a conveniently located stacked washer and dryer. Just one block from Germantown Avenue, leave the car at home and walk to nearly everything Chestnut Hill has to offer! Restaurants, specialty shops, dry cleaners, markets (including the weekly farmers’ market), and the Wissahickon Valley are all within easy reach. Walk left or right leaving the house, and both SEPTA's Chestnut Hill East and West regional rail lines are easily accessible. Charming, thoughtfully updated, and ideally situated, 29 W. Willow Grove Avenue rewards a closer look. Come see this Chestnut Hill gem for yourself—you may find it hard to leave.
