Property Description
Some houses just have soul. You feel it the moment I stepped onto the wide front porch—like this place has stories to tell, but still plenty of room for yours.
Built in 1917, 109 Surrey Road is a large craftsman-style bungalow full of timeless details that gives it warmth and presence. Wide hallways connect the main spaces, original wood trim wraps each doorway, Mercer tile frames the fireplaces, and rich flat panel wainscoting, and coffered ceilings elevate the space without ever feeling too formal.
The rooms are grand but grounded—like the 23 x 15+ -foot living room, perfect for quiet reading, hosting a friend or entertaining a crowd. Pocket doors connect you to a comfortable family room, ideal for those cozy movie nights or to gather to watch the game. Just beyond that, a small sun-soaked office with tall windows that makes for a peaceful spot to work or hide away.
Dinner parties feel right at home in the elegant dining room—nearly 20 feet long, with French doors and two built-in china cabinets ready to showcase your glassware . Off the dining room, there's an enclosed front porch that faces east—flooded with morning light and perfect for coffee, Wordle, and petting your pup before starting the day.
The kitchen is spacious and bright, with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a charming breakfast nook for casual meals. Just around the corner, a hidden laundry room keeps things practical, while a surprise bar room sets the stage for your next cocktail night. And don't miss the unexpectedly spacious powder room—complete with eye-catching original tile work that adds a little wow factor where you least expect it.
As a true bungalow, it offers the convenience of first-floor living, with two comfortably sized bedrooms and a full bathroom all on the main level.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat. The bedroom alone is approximately 25 x 23 feet, with two large closets and a bonus room that can be anything you need—home gym, office, nursery, or walk-in closet. The en-suite bathroom adds a modern touch with shower stall, tub and updated vanity and flooring. The second upstairs bedroom has its own full bath as well.
The unfinished basement is great for storage or to finish at some point in the future. Outside, the flat backyard feels like a blank canvas—ready for soccer games, summer dinners, or a hammock under the mature trees. The detached garage adds flexibility, and being on a corner lot gives the whole property a sense of breathing room.
And when it's time to step out, you're about a half a mile from the Melrose Park train station—with direct service to Center City and the airport. Parks, coffee shops, and local restaurants are all nearby. It's walkable, connected, and yet scenic and quiet enough to recognize you've found someplace special.
This isn't just a house—it's a home with presence, heart, and a front porch that's been waiting for you.
