3648 Merrick Road is a distinctive end unit on a quiet tree lined street in East Falls, Philadelphia. Built in 1918, the home offers 9ft ceilings, extra wide living space, beautiful carved wood surrounds, mantel and moldings and several large south facing windows that bring in an abundance of na...tural light throughout the living quarters. Enter the home through the welcoming front porch and you will find a lovely Living Room centered around a decorative fireplace with wood surround and perfectly preserved original tiles. The spacious Dining Room is surrounded by gorgeous hand crafted wood work , and yet a second decorative fireplace flanked by a wall of windows that open to views of the side garden. Beyond the Dining Room is an updated eat-in kitchen with Shaker-style cabinetry, stainless appliances and tiled floor. Adjacent to the kitchen is an addition with a bank of windows overlooking the rear gardens. Exit the addition and step into a large private grassed, fenced side yard with patio and mature plantings. There is also an additional deep secret garden in the back portion of the property. A rare find for the neighborhood. The second floor features three lovely appointed bedrooms with extra storage and an updated hall bath with radiant heat. City views can be seen from the back bedroom during the late fall and winter months. The large unfinished basement offers amble storage and workspace as it encompasses the entire footprint of the home. Merrick Road is conveniently located within walking distance to mass transit, local restaurants , Farmer's Markets , the local Library, Kelly Drive and is a short drive to CC and to all major arteries. It should be noted that this home is owned by two architects who have masterfully married old world charm with modern updates. They have recently added forged iron custom railings and hardwood floors on the second level. This is a must see for those looking for the convenience of urban living with plenty of green space and private outdoor space.
