This spacious twin on a sweet little brick-paved side street was beautifully renovated while preserving incredible original details throughout. It kicks off with great curb appeal from an intricately detailed cornice, arched pediment and decorative columns. From the enclosed front porch with original leaded glass entry door and transom is the living room with coffered ceiling, decorative fireplace, original pine floors and curated light fixtures that run throughout, as well as the first of many leaded glass windows. Through an oversized archway the dining room–with a stunning original unpainted cabinet with curved glass, decorative fireplace with original mirrored mantel and a leaded glass window–has been opened to the kitchen. A farmhouse island with breakfast bar perfectly ties together the old with the new–porcelain floors, sleek woodgrain flat-front cabinets, veined quartz countertops with stainless apron sink with pulldown faucet, stacked subway tile backsplash, a Whirlpool slide-in range with convection oven and a GE dishwasher. Also on the first floor are two coveted features–there’s a powder room in the mudroom off the kitchen, and tucked under the stairs behind a sweet original door there’s a living room coat closet. Up the original staircase is an airy hallway with a plaster arch with decorative corbels. The rear bedroom with two exposures, including a window flanked by original mirrored doors, connects to the middle bedroom via another plaster arch with decorative corbels and a walk-in closet. This bedroom has a set of windows with a leaded glass transom between them. The hall bath is another case of old and new being wedded seamlessly–the marble-topped vanity, veined porcelain floor and wall tile, and soaking tub with stacked subway tile surround and soap niches are graced by a leaded glass window and large original medicine cabinet. The largest front bedroom has crown molding, a bay window and two closets with original mirrored doors. In the finished basement there’s another full bath with a large storage vanity and oversize walk-in shower and a dedicated laundry room. Out back is a decent size yard for a patch of grass or garden space. This quiet block of Carlisle is tucked away yet still convenient to Temple and Einstein hospitals, Winchester Rec Center, Lehigh Ave and Broad St shopping, dining and transportation, and just 10 minutes to Fairmount Park.
