Property Description
Welcome to West Mount Airy and one of the neighborhood's most popular one block streets. This quiet tree-lined street is just steps from the Carpenter Lane train. This 3-bedroom 1.5-bathroom house is tucked away behind mature plantings. You enter the property through a Japanese Maple canopy over the front walkway that leads to a large covered front porch with lovely brick adorned archways for shaded outdoor enjoyment.
You will love the bright open layout of the interior with updated windows, deep windowsills, original hard wood floors and high ceilings. The spacious living room features a cozy brick fireplace with lovely wood mantle. The living room flows into the spacious dining room and kitchen. The dining room features built in bookshelves that are part of the kitchen island connecting the two spaces. The island features a granite countertop, a sink and dishwasher, overhead pendent lighting and wood cabinets for loads of storage. The open layout is perfect for entertaining. The updated kitchen incorporates the original wood butler pantry with newer wood cabinetry, a custom spice rack, granite countertop, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances (including a brand-new refrigerator). There is a stainless range hood. The glass-block wall with a louvered window at its center, by the stainless range, brings in loads of light and offers additional ventilation. A rear door from the kitchen leads to a sizable deck for dining, relaxing, and container gardening.
A lovely wide wood stairway with original banister leads to the wide 2nd floor hallway which has a hall bathroom, a linen closet and three generous bedrooms, all with large closets. Two bedrooms have original hardwood, and one has brand new Berber carpeting. The hall bath has classic original white subway tiles, a newer tub shower surround, vanity and toilet, and built in open shelving in the corner and over the window to host all your plants and toiletries.
The full unfinished basement has a powder room, utility room, shelved storage room and laundry with laundry sink. The back door is convenient walk-out access to built-in garage, driveway and rear garden.
This home has been pre-inspected, and the report is available along with the seller's disclosure. The seller is offering a 10k seller assist with an acceptable offer, to address the knob & tube wiring (see attached estimate from Gen3 Electric)
With convenient access to Carpenter's Woods, Mount Airy Village, Lovett Library, the Cresheim Trail, and the shops and restaurants of Germantown Avenue, this move-in-ready home is a well-rounded gem in one of Northwest Philadelphia's most beloved neighborhoods.
