About This Home
As of September 2015Beautiful & spacious 6 bedroom, 3.5 bath stone center-hall Colonial home with sun porch, great room, dining room, breakfast room, and office. Significant original character throughout. Off-street driveway PARKING (for more than one car). Perfectly Situated on a large lot on a rarely available, most desirable West Mt. Airy block. The front yard offers mature trees that provide superb privacy for this majestic home. The rear grounds are flat, just ideal for play, sports, entertaining, and relaxing all-day long. Character includes original hardwood floors throughout (including under the wall to wall carpet); wood-burning fireplaces with beautiful mantles; leaded windows; significant original woodwork, moldings, and wainscoting; high-ceilings; big windows. This home was owned by the same family and lovingly cared for for 40 years. With updating, this home will be a haven for years to come--on one of the most lovely blocks in one of the City's hottest neighborhoods. The 600 block of West Hortter is a beautiful, quiet block with mature trees and stately homes. Very minimal traffic, yet just 1 minute to Lincoln Drive and 15-20 minute drive to Center City, 5 minutes to Chestnut Hill and 5-10 minutes to Manayunk. Walk less than 2 blocks to the Wissahickon trails and the Upsal Train Station (Chestnut Hill West line). And of course walk or bike to Weavers Way, High Point Cafe, and all of the restaurants and shopping that Mount Airy and Germantown Avenue have to offer. Just a wonderful home, waiting to be updated and enjoyed for years to come.
