The epitome of city living combined with the convenience of suburban life is uniquely yours at 3517 Tuscany Dr, a 5 bed, 3.5 bath, 2,754 sqft home featuring a massive backyard oasis and nestled within the heart of highly desirable The Reserves at Packer Park. The astounding value of this home is found in its footprint, a 4,500 sqft lot with the layout of each floor thoughtfully maximizing the available space and the enormous 35 by 60 foot backyard sanctuary that’s almost unbelievable in size for a property in Philadelphia. Entrance into the home greets you with stunning hardwood floors, recessed lighting, 9 foot ceilings, beautiful crown and wood molding, custom linen-finished paint, a semi-open layout, and massive sliding tilt-in front windows and sliding glass doors leading into the backyard that allows in an abundance of natural light. Walk past the dining area and the formal living room with built-in bookshelf and into the spacious kitchen and family room.
The kitchen is appointed with everything needed to become the heart of the home, with venetian plaster-finished solid wood cabinetry, an abundance of granite countertop space, a center island with two-person seating and gorgeous pendant lighting, a large pantry, and a suite of matching stainless steel appliances.
Finishing off the first floor level is the entrance to the attached one-car smart garage with wireless openers and outside keypad for secure package and grocery delivery, a one-car driveway, a convenient powder room, and a second set of sliding glass doors from the family room leading to the backyard. Truly no expense was spared when outfitting the 2,100 sqft of outdoor space, being completely surrounded with white privacy fencing and garden beds with built-in irrigation, E.P. Henry pavers covering the entire footprint for maintenance-free grounds, ten smart app-controlled lantern fixtures with timer and dimmer features, a wood-burning fire pit for all-seasons enjoyment of the tranquil outdoors, retractable awning over the patio seating area, and a large, custom-built storage shed. Whether entertaining a large party of friends and family or unwinding after a long day of hard work, the vacation-escape experience of this backyard hideaway is second to none. Head upstairs to the second floor of the home, which features newly installed luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout for more maintenance free living, a large primary bedroom with double walk-in closets and 4-piece ensuite, boasting a large spa tub and double vanity sinks. This floor also offers two additional bedrooms, a full hall bathroom, and a convenient laundry room. The 3rd floor of the home is the location of the 4th and 5th spacious bedrooms with custom ceiling fan light fixtures and ample closet space, along with the second full hall bathroom. With so much space, the 2-zoned Nest-controlled central heat and central A/C system is yet another superb feature of this home, along with very low HOA dues, at just $140 monthly. The HOA platinum policy includes snow removal and offers coverage for everything exterior of the home (including the roof, gutters, shutters, siding and brick maintenance and repair) and interior of the home (personal belongings and upgrades not included). Convenience meets luxury, as the home is just half a block from the landmark FDR Park, walking distance to the Eagles, Flyers, 76ers, and Phillies sports complex, Xfinity Live, Live! Casino, and locally-beloved restaurants, bars, and shopping complexes, not to mention the the Broad Street Subway Line for easy access into Center City. Transportation is a breeze, with easy access to Broad Street, I-95, I-76, and the Walt Whitman bridge to be downtown, in University City, or across the river into New Jersey in just minutes. With everything that this home has to offer, all you have to do is unpack and move right in. Schedule your private showing today!
