Property Description

For the first time in over a century, the doors of 8011 Navajo Street open to the public—revealing an extraordinary architectural jewel envisioned in 1916 by Dr. George Woodward and master architect Edmund Gilchrist. This English Cotswold–style residence is more than a home; it is a rare piece of Chestnut Hill's living history, where timeless design, privacy, and community converge.
Enter through the stately stone wall and gate, framed by mature, flowering trees. The home's striking stonework and leaded glass windows immediately highlight its architectural character. A bluestone pathway extends through the property, leading to a welcoming vestibule that opens into the foyer. To the left, the formal dining room impresses with original stone arched windows, glass-paneled doors opening to the front bluestone patio, and access to the private backyard. Built-in shelving adds character, while a stunning original wood-burning fireplace creates an inviting centerpiece. To the right of the foyer, the living room mirrors the dining room's charm, with abundant natural light, another wood-burning fireplace, and beautiful hardwood floors that continue throughout all levels of the home. The bright, traditional kitchen offers space for a breakfast table, access to a charming rear patio for al fresco dining, and an original butler's pantry with glass-front cabinetry.
Upstairs, the primary suite features a working wood-burning fireplace, en suite bath, and a connected dressing room/sitting room with generous closet space. A second bedroom offering large windows and a full hall bath complete this level. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and another full hall bath, providing flexible space for guests or home offices.
The lower level includes laundry with a vintage sink and abundant storage. This home also includes three + additional private parking spaces secured through a deeded easement. The backyard is a serene retreat with mature landscaping that reflects Chestnut Hill's original planning ideals—providing green space, privacy, and a connection to nature while remaining close to all the conveniences of the city.
