This stone stucco & timbered Tudor was constructed at the turn of the last Century on the grounds of the former Anna Sharpless estate. Situated on a ~~ acre lot (NOT on the track side) it's just one block to SEPTA's Melrose Park train station. You approach the home down a winding sidewalk to the wrap-around porch (half is covered).
