About This Home

As of August 2017

This just may be the one to end your search! Gorgeous 3-story twin on one of West Mt Airy's most sought after blocks. This 4BD/2.5BA home is filled with original charm, modern updates and a timeless elegance you'll want to call home. Enter through victorian doors to find beautifully refinished hardwood floors, original moldings, and decorative fireplaces. The first floor features a formal living room and dining room with high ceilings and built-in shelving. The large eat-in-kitchen has been updated with clean white Corian counters, pressed oak cabinetry, a custom dishwasher panel and a chef style gas cooktop with SS hood. Beyond the kitchen there is a spacious mud/laundry room and a conveniently located powder room with exposed brick walls and a new floor. The backyard has been landscaped for the summer and is ready for you to entertain, garden or simply sit back and relax. Access the second floor through the butler stairs in the kitchen or the double-wide staircase in the living room. Here you'll find french doors leading to a spacious master bedroom with a bay window, fireplace and tons of natural light. There is a full bath on this level with a clawfoot tub and two nicely sized bedrooms. The third floor features the fourth bedroom, currently used as a play/bedroom with an en suite bath and shower stall, ideal for a guest or in-law suite. Across from the bedroom there is a small door leading to the roof where future plans could include a deck. This is a great opportunity to own a well-maintained home in a highly desirable neighborhood. The owners replaced the two main roofs in 2014 and the exterior has been freshly painted. The electric panel is new, a 40 gallon hot water heater was just installed this year and a new heater was installed in 2013. If central air is a must-have, the ductwork is complete, all you need to do is connect your main unit and it's ready to go. Gorgas Lane is one of Mt Airy's best kept secrets, a quiet one-way street, close to shops and restaurants on Germantown Ave, walking distance to transportation, convenient to Chestnut Hill and a just short ride to Center city. You will absolutely love this home - schedule your tour today!
