Property Description
As you arrive at 465 Windermere Avenue, you'll immediately sense the timeless charm of this captivating three-story English Tudor, perfectly positioned on a .22-acre “double” lot in the highly sought-after neighborhood of Drexel Park. The curb appeal is undeniable, showcasing a distinctive brick façade, steep gabled rooflines, and authentic half-timber accents that reflect the elegance of 1920's architecture. Thoughtful updates seamlessly complement its historic character, including a two-year young central air system, Andersen E-Series windows, a 50-year CertainTeed shingle roof, gleaming hardwood floors throughout, and a custom white kitchen- just a few examples of the many details that highlight the care and pride of ownership that define this remarkable home. A welcoming red door, framed by an arched overhang, sets the tone for this distinctive home. A second, more informal entrance invites you through a stunning arched brick entryway to a spacious covered patio complete with a ceiling fan and retractable privacy screen—an ideal spot for year-round gatherings or quiet evenings outdoors. This thoughtful outdoor space also provides a secondary entry into the living room through a door flanked by tasteful sidelights. Inside, the foyer greets you with warm hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a preview of the grand formal living room. A turned staircase with crisp white trim and a polished wood banister highlights the craftsmanship that resonates throughout the home. The living room is anchored by a handsome brick fireplace with a traditional mantle, framed by oversized windows that flood the space with sunlight. Nearby, a cozy family room with built-in shelving flows seamlessly to the dining room, creating the perfect balance for both formal entertaining and casual living. The dining room makes a statement with its rich wallpaper, detailed millwork, and a dramatic arched window paired with a glass door to the outdoors. This space combines elegance with warmth, equally suited for holiday dinners or intimate gatherings. Just beyond lies a lovely outdoor patio (installed in 2011) overlooking the large, level yard—a serene backdrop for everyday enjoyment.The kitchen blends classic style with modern convenience: white cabinetry, leathered granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, slate flooring, and stainless steel appliances, all illuminated by plentiful windows. Two original Butler's Pantries with 1920s hardware add charm & functionality, offering additional storage, counter space, and (6) pull-out cutting boards. A rear entry and mudroom enhance everyday practicality, while a secondary stairwell conveniently connects the kitchen to the main foyer staircase. Upstairs, a large picture window illuminates the landing. The primary bedroom (18x16) offers generous space, abundant natural light, a WIC, ceiling fan, and an en suite bath with subway tile and a tub/shower combination. Two additional bedrooms feature hardwood floors, roomy closets, and charming original glass doorknobs. A hall bath with subway tile and tub/shower serves this level. The 3rd floor provides a versatile 15x13 bedroom with two closets and a stylish ensuite bath featuring a claw-foot tub and black-and-white tile. The lower level offers ample storage, a laundry area with double sink, a convenient quarter bath, and multiple storage closets. A new insulated door provides egress to Bilco doors leading to the rear yard. What truly sets this home apart is the thoughtful investments the current owners have made, giving buyers peace of mind. Major improvements include: Central Air ('23), 21 Andersen E-Series windows ('23/'24) new driveway ('22), and two-car garage doors + opener('15). Additional updates include restoration and fresh paint of all half timbers & a CertainTeed 50-Year Shingle roof installed in 2010. Outside, mature landscaping, manicured gardens, and brick walkways frame this home in storybook charm. Make this your next chapter!
