About This Home

As of October 2024

Buyer's financing fell through. This is your opportunity to purchase this Mt Airy GEM!

Step into a piece of Philadelphia history at 125 W Mount Pleasant Avenue, a meticulously maintained Victorian home awaiting its new owners. Nestled on a serene, tree-lined block in sought-after Mt. Airy, this turn-key residence combines historic charm with modern updates, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere that truly feels like home.

Enjoy the convenience of city living with a short stroll to Germantown Ave's vibrant shops and restaurants. Commuters will appreciate the bus stop at the corner and the Allen's Lane train station just an 8-minute walk away, ensuring easy access to Center City and beyond.

As you approach, picture yourself savoring your morning coffee on the expansive front porch, surrounded by mature plantings and the friendly ambiance of the neighborhood. Step inside to find a freshly painted open floor plan on the main level, featuring a cozy living room with a built-in room divider for added storage and seating options.

The gourmet kitchen, remodeled in 2017 by the same team who recently remodeled the Walter Mellor home, is a chef's delight with abundant cabinetry, Marble countertops, and a new Samsung stainless steel appliance suite installed in 2023, including an induction range. Natural light floods the space through new windows, also updated in 2023. A convenient powder room and versatile additional room, perfect for a mudroom or office, complete this level with access to the spacious rear yard.

Upstairs, the second level hosts two generously sized bedrooms, each adorned with bay windows, hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and ample closet space. The updated bathroom features an oversized spa shower, double vanity, and a separate modern soaking tub, ensuring a blend of luxury and functionality.

The third floor offers flexible living arrangements with a nursery with en-suite bathroom access and guest room, both serviced by the four-piece Hall Bath with a brand-new tile floor installed in June 2024, double vanity, and extra-large stall shower with Rainfall Shower Head. This level could alternatively serve as a primary suite, accommodating various lifestyle needs.

Further enhancing comfort and peace of mind, the home boasts updated electrical and plumbing systems, a new whole house humidifier (2023), newer dual zone HVAC system, and a certified and warrantied roof. All recent updates to the home come with a 1-year warranty from HM Construction and Renovations.

Located in the heart of Mt. Airy, residents enjoy proximity to Chestnut Hill, Fairmount Park, and the scenic trails of Forbidden Drive, offering endless opportunities for outdoor recreation. Whether you're commuting to the city or exploring nearby amenities, 125 W Mount Pleasant provides a perfect blend of urban convenience and suburban tranquility.
