Property Description
Welcome to this beautifully preserved Victorian brick front residence where timeless elegance meets modern comfort. As you approach the home, you’ll notice the generously sized front porch complemented by meticulously landscaped gardens. Enter through the front door and notice the impressive 9-foot ceilings which are present throughout the first floor. An open living and dining space greets you, complete with original hardwood flooring and a beautiful custom mantle. This warm space is the perfect place to spend cozy evenings with loved ones. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Just beyond the kitchen, you'll find a convenient mudroom with a washer and dryer and a half-bath with modern furnishings.
Through the rear door, you can access the private garden. This secluded back yard provides a beautiful grassy area with a gorgeous brick wall. Perfect for the addition of outdoor seating, this space offers the ideal pocket of serene nature in a city setting.
Coming up the classic Victorian-style staircase from the living area, you will find that the second level continues to impress. This floor boasts three bright bedrooms, each sharing the signature hardwood flooring that graces this home. The full bathroom on this level provides a clean yet vintage aesthetic, with ceramic tile flooring and chic beadboard wall accents. Venture downstairs to discover a finished lower level, characterized by its drywall finish and polished concrete flooring — an ideal flex space to suit your needs, whether that be a family room, game center, or art studio. There are truly endless possibilities!
This captivating home boasts a location that is second to none. Situated mere steps from Mt. Airy's vibrant business district, the house allows you to immerse yourself in local gems such as Trattoria Moma, McMenamin’s Tavern, the Juice Room, fitness centers, the historic Sedgwick theater, and art galleries. For nature enthusiasts, the scenic hiking trails of the Wissahickon Valley lie tantalizingly close. Extensive public transport options are also within walking distance, including the Allens Lane train station, which provides fast and easy access to Center City. This home truly is the best of both worlds; a comfortable sanctuary with limitless ways to connect with the local community. Schedule a private showing today!
