About 8428 SHAWNEE ST

8428 Shawnee Street is a delightful Chestnut Hill gem tucked just one block west of Germantown Avenue. With welcoming porches, three bedrooms, a first-floor powder room, and a private garden, this well-maintained row house offers a wonderful blend of warmth, comfort, and convenience. Move right in and enjoy all that this special neighborhood has to offer. Natural light fills the home, thanks to replacement windows installed over the years. Thoughtful updates include a remodeled hall bath (2022), a new hot water heater and storm doors (2021), and two new storm drains at the basement steps (October 2026). The roof was replaced in 2011. Three mini-split heating and cooling units, installed in 2019, provide year-round comfort. The full, unfinished basement offers high ceilings, plenty of shelving and cabinets for storage, a newer washer and dryer, and convenient walk-out access. Step outside to a private, thoughtfully landscaped backyard that offers a peaceful retreat from the everyday. Each season brings its own surprises, making this a lovely place to garden, relax, or simply enjoy a quiet moment. Two porches provide additional spots to sit back and savor the neighborhood. A shared alley with car access makes unloading groceries and larger items easy. Leave the car at home and stroll to the shops, cafés, and restaurants along Germantown Avenue. The Chestnut Hill West train station is just a five-minute walk away, and the beautiful trails of the Wissahickon Creek are within easy reach. 8428 Shawnee Street invites you to settle in, slow down, and enjoy the best of Chestnut Hill living—a charming home, a garden to discover, and a wonderful neighborhood right outside your door.
