About This Home

As of August 2020

Welcome to 513 E. Murdoch Road! This classic Mount Airy center hall stone colonial is everything you've been waiting for, and more. As you enter into the front hall you'll notice the beautiful hardwood floors, recessed lighting and newer windows throughout. The living room features a stone fireplace and two double French doors leading to the spacious family / play room. The gorgeous chef's kitchen is a must-see. It includes shaker-style cabinetry, marble countertops, stainless steel Viking appliances, a wine/beverage refrigerator, a six-burner gas range with hood, an eat-in island, subway tile backsplash, and opens up to the dining area with French doors leading to the rear deck. Perfect for dining al fresco! The second floor of the home includes the master suite with two closets, a balcony and a stunning en-suite bathroom with frameless shower with floor to ceiling tile and double sink vanity. On this level there are also two additional bedrooms and a hall bathroom with subway tiled shower/bathtub and marble vanity. The third level consists of two additional bedrooms with an updated hall bathroom with subway tiled stall shower. The basement is partially finished with space for a play room or gym, laundry area, powder room, and plenty of storage. Other notable features of the home include: updated electrical throughout (200 amp), newer HVAC systems, and an attached two-car garage. Walk to Chestnut Hill, the train, and much more from this convenient location. Combining classical charm and character with modern amenities and updates, this home is the best of both worlds!
