Highly desirable, perfectly maintained Elliger Park Cape originally built by Harry M. Waterer, one of the Founders of the Philadelphia Flower Show. As you open the original 1937 door into the brick floored entryway, you will immediately be impressed with the level of care and updating that has occurred. From the wainscoting, moldings, hardwood floors, brick floors, and high end finishes, this home exudes the best Elliger Park has to offer! The large Living Room features a gas fireplace and is filled with bright light from the front windows. The brick floored Sun Room, adjoining the living room and overlooking the gardens, adds to the sun filled spaces.
