Property Description
This top of the hill charmer blends historic character and contemporary living! Built in 1952,
121 Hilltop is a distinctive 3-bedroom, 3 bath carriage-style house. This serene retreat spans
2,580 sq. ft. and sits on a lush, green lot with easy walkability to the vibrant Chestnut Hill
community.
Step into this timeless home where classic charm meets thoughtful, modern updates. A
flagstone walkway leads to an inviting double-door entrance, opening into a sun-drenched
foyer where gridded transom windows fill the space with natural light. Throughout the home,
pristine hardwood floors provide warmth and continuity, setting the stage for elegant yet
comfortable living. The living room is anchored by an antique mantel fireplace, while a soaring
cathedral ceiling adds architectural drama and a sense of airy sophistication. Stunning French
doors open to a magnificent solarium with skylights, an ideal retreat for sunlit mornings or quiet
evenings under the stars.
The gourmet eat-in kitchen features an island, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops
and hardwood floors opening up into a gracious dining room. The design is perfect for
everyday living and entertaining guests. The home showcases beautifully appointed bedrooms,
while each bathroom has been meticulously updated with custom tilework and high-end
finishes, offering a refined blend of comfort and neutral design. An added highlight is the renovated above grade lower level living space with separate entrance and full bath, ideal for an in-law suite, quiet home office or guest quarters.
For those who love the outdoors, this home delivers a true garden sanctuary. A glass-enclosed
greenhouse invites year-round gardening, while vibrant perennials and mature landscaping
frame a private patio and dining area, an ideal setting for entertaining or unwinding in nature.
Just unpack your bags and enjoy the thoughtful and meticulous upgrades made to the home
over the last few years, including new roof, windows, hvac, bathrooms, driveway and garage,
and much more!

property, just steps from quaint shops, acclaimed restaurants, the scenic
Wissahickon Trail, and with easy access to Center City Philadelphia via train. Don't miss the
