About this home
Location, location, location!* Move right into this majestic, generously sized Victorian stone twin in highly desirable West Mt. Airy. Leave the cars in the rear garage and enjoy an easy walk to two train lines, restaurants, cafés, and the Wissahickon, with miles of hiking, biking, horseback riding trails, and great fishing all nearby.
The past and current owners have cared for this home beautifully and invested where it counts: an updated boiler, hot water heater, electrical system, mini-split air conditioning, garage doors, and updated windows on every floor. The kitchen has been refreshed with updated cabinetry, a new ceiling, and a new gas stove, while the front and rear stonework have also been restored. Many varieties of flowers bloom throughout the front, side, and rear gardens, including three magnificent magnolia trees.
A bright, covered front entrance porch sets the tone - Inside, a vestibule for coats and shoes opens to a hallway leading to the connected living and dining rooms, anchored by a working fireplace Off of the living room French doors open to a lovely sunroom, perfect for growing plants and settling in with a book. The second floor features a primary suite, workout room, and laundry, while the third floor offers three additional bedrooms. There are two full bathrooms plus a convenient first-floor powder room. The full unfinished basement, complete with Bilco doors for direct exterior access, is ideal for a workshop, storage, or future finishing.
Out back, an easy-to-maintain yard is shaded by three gorgeous magnolia trees. The original three-car garage has been converted into a two-car garage with a large storage area, plus additional permeable paver parking behind—stormwater-friendly and a real asset in this part of the city. Very close to lovely Chestnut Hill and Wyndmoor as well....
