About This Home
As of September 2016This wonderful 3 bedroom, two bathroom stone home with garage parking occupies a lovely tree-lined block in West Mount Airy. Just a half a block from the R8 train line for an easy commute into Center City and a short walk to High Point Cafe, Weavers Way co-op, the library and close to the Wissahickon and great shops and restaurants along Germantown Avenue. You will be welcomed by a fenced-in front yard with raised garden bed and a lovely front porch. The light-filled first floor offers an open floor plan with hardwood floors throughout and a fireplace in the living room. The dining room has two closets for extra storage and an energy-efficient mini split air conditioning system which does a great job of keeping the home cool at minimal cost. The kitchen features EcoTop counters and breakfast bar and a new dishwasher. It opens onto the deck that has room to grill and is a great spot to enjoy your morning coffee. Upstairs, you will find 3 ample bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet, and a full bathroom, along with new second floor windows, new ceiling fans, and room darkening shades. The basement is finished and has an additional full bathroom, so it can double as a great guest space, with an additional separate storage space. New washer and dryer included. Attached garage also has room to park an additional car inside or behind it, though street parking is also a breeze. Wonderful neighbors and active block association. Schedule your appointment today and move right in!
