809 CHURCH ROAD

ELKINS PARK, PA 19027

Introducing a mid-century modern gem that celebrates the natural simplicity of 1950’s design where open spaces, sunlight, and craftsmanship come together in perfect harmony, bringing timeless livability into the 21st century. Built in 1956, 809 Church Road embodies the ranch-style design cues of its era with an asymmetrical facade, broad picture windows, and a seamless connection to its natural surroundings complemented by a covered carport that enhances both convenience and architectural charm. Set on a .35-acre lot beneath a canopy of mature trees, including a stunning 20-foot Japanese cutleaf maple, the home spans 2,035 square feet and features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a den, and a sunroom. Exterior textures add depth and visual interest with a mix of stone, vertical wood siding, and brick walkways, all framed by lush landscaping. A welcoming side entrance opens to a charming galley kitchen and bright breakfast nook, where natural light streams through large windows to create a cheerful start to the day. Interior brick walls, wood cabinetry, and hardwood floors add texture and character to this space. The ceiling height rises dramatically in the dining area, where exposed beams introduce dimension and architectural interest. Iconic features of mid-century modern ranchers are evident throughout the open-concept living and dining spaces, which feature floor-to-ceiling built-ins, beadboard accent walls, and expansive windows that blur the line between indoors and out. Plantation shutters frame these windows, offering filtered light and highlighting the home’s clean lines and subtle detailing. At the heart of the living room, a distinctive arched brick fireplace with a raised hearth provides warmth and a striking architectural focal point, while a cozy den nearby offers a comfortable retreat for reading, relaxing, or working from home. The bedroom wing flows naturally from the main living space, continuing the home’s visual rhythm with varying ceiling heights, large picture windows, and exposed beams. The primary bedroom features an ensuite bath, generous closet space, and an adjoining sunroom with tranquil views of the tree-lined back patio, an ideal spot for a home office, meditation, or yoga. 809 Church Road offers the ease of single-level living with authentic mid-century flair in the heart of Elkins Park. Conveniently located just outside the Philadelphia city limits, the home provides quick access to Route 309, Route 1, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Make this hidden gem your own!
