in an unparalleled chestnut hill location, the home is steps from pastorius park and a short stroll to the shops, restaurants, and cafés along germantown avenue. you're also within walking distance to springside chestnut hill academy, the philadelphia cricket club, the saint martins lane septa station, and just beyond, the extensive network of hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails in the wissahickon valley park.
