About This Home

As of June 2018

Welcome to this wonderful sun-drenched fully renovated East Mount Airy Twin. The open plan kitchen with exposed brick wall and giant granite island is the perfect space for gracious dinner parties and feeding the family. The brand new wrap around porch is a wonderful respite that enters to a large living room with a stone fireplace with parquet floors. Upstairs you will find a fully detailed custom master suite with double vanity, over-sized frameless glass enclosed double shower, an enclosed private W/C, large sunny sleeping area and walk-in closet. Also on the second floor, a large family room that could double as a guest room and a full second bath. On the third floor, three large bedrooms, two with vaulted ceilings, and another full bath. There is a full basement. Laundry, mudroom and half-bath on the first floor and a nice protected back yard. Full central air, all new plumbing and electric, everything has been repainted and a new roof. Nothing else needs to be done. This property was recently subdivided and the carriage house is not included in this sale. The wide driveway and big sideyard have an easement that allows for this twin to have three car off-street parking and exclusive use of the large side yard. This is a fantastic offering and an incredible opportunity to get into a beautiful well-designed home that has been meticulously brought back to life.
