Property Description

You may already know the Fox Chase Christmas house — and it is now for sale for the first time in over 125 years! Located at 8136 Jeanes Street, this beloved twin has remained in the same family for generations and is famously decorated each holiday season, making it a true neighborhood landmark. Behind the storybook exterior, the home is filled with warmth and timeless character. The main level features sun-filled living and dining spaces with original hardwood floors, chestnut wood trim, and a cozy brick fireplace that truly anchors the room. The kitchen offers ample cabinetry, a moveable center island, and a functional layout for everyday living and entertaining. A convenient half bathroom and mudroom, located just off the rear entrance, provide additional functionality and complete the main level. The second floor boasts three well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bathroom. The third floor then features a converted attic space with two additional bonus rooms - offering flexible space for a home office, hobby room, or just plain old storage (no heat). Set on a desirable corner lot, the home benefits from added light, privacy, and curb appeal, along with a detached garage - a rare find in this part of Fox Chase. Stone accents, mature landscaping, and classic brickwork reflect the craftsmanship of the early 1900s and decades of pride in ownership. Ideally located near St. Cecilia's Parish and School, Pennypack Park trails, Fox Chase Farm, local shops and dining (including the famous Joesph's Pizza!), and the SEPTA Fox Chase Regional Rail line for an easy commute to Center City. A rare opportunity to own a true Fox Chase landmark and continue a cherished neighborhood tradition. Estate is offering a 10k seller assist at closing for knob & tube remediation (quote provided).
