About this home
Nestled on over an acre of beautifully landscaped, flat grounds in coveted West Mt. Airy, this extraordinary property offers timeless character, exceptional space, and meticulous care throughout. Surrounded by mature oak, walnut, cherry, apple, and dogwood trees, the setting is both private and picturesque — a true oasis in the city. Enter inside to a bright foyer adorned with gorgeous original heart of pine wood floors that continue throughout much of the home. The foyer is flanked by a formal living room featuring a fireplace and elegant glass French doors leading to the patio, as well as a cozy sitting room ideal for a home office. The sitting room conveniently connects to the laundry room and powder room. Further inside, the expansive formal dining room impresses with oversized windows and a stunning decorative fireplace centerpiece, creating the perfect setting for entertaining. At the heart of the home is the spectacular eat-in kitchen, thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and gatherings alike. Highlights include an oversized center island with seating, white shaker cabinetry, newer stainless steel appliances, a built-in buffet counter with a second sink, space for casual dining, and a gas fireplace. Sliding glass doors open seamlessly to the oversized bluestone patio, blending indoor and outdoor living. The second floor offers exceptional flexibility and comfort with two bedrooms connected by a full bathroom, while one of those bedrooms also enjoys access to an additional full bath with hallway entry. Two more spacious bedrooms, another full hall bathroom, and a versatile flex space perfect for a home office, playroom, or sitting area complete this level. The third floor features two generously sized bedrooms sharing a full hall bathroom, offering ideal accommodations for guests, family, or additional workspace. Outside, the property truly shines. The stunning outdoor retreat is filled with mature perennial gardens and centers around a beautiful oversized pool with a bluestone surround and pergola-covered deck for relaxation. Adjacent to the pool is the charming standalone 1900 carriage house, complete with a bathroom, garage, and workshop space — which could make a perfect pool house, studio, or creative space. Beyond the garage, an established organic vegetable garden has thrived for more than 19 years. Extensive recent improvements provide peace of mind, including full reroofing, SIKA stucco coating, replacement and upgrade of eight large windows from Pella standard to custom, upgraded electrical service with removal of all knob-and-tube wiring, new air-source heat pumps and air handlers, a high efficiency Buderus boiler back up system that provides heat on the coldest day, redesigned front landscaping, replaced sidewalks and front walkways, and the addition of a PHS-designed rain garden. Ideally located just two blocks from the SEPTA Chestnut Hill West train station and multiple direct access points to Wissahickon Park, this remarkable home also enjoys close proximity to Germantown Avenue’s restaurants, Quintessence Theatre, Coop Grocery, and several local schools. A rare opportunity to own a truly special property in one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Mortgage savings may be available for buyers of this listing....
