About This Home
As of July 2021This beautiful and comfortable West Mt. Airy brick townhouse is half a block to Carpenter's Woods hiking trails, 2 blocks to Weaver's Way Food Co-op, and a half mile to Carpenter Lane train station. The spacious and elegant living room has parquet wood floors with a walnut inlayed boarder and crown molding at the edge of the ceiling. Adjoining the living room is a cozy sunroom which has a brick wood-burning fireplace with built-in bookcases on either side. The formal dining room is next to the kitchen with a pass-through between them. The kitchen has a striking honey-colored granite countertop and a white subway tile backsplash. The appliances are stainless steel, the clean white kitchen cabinets are plentiful. The rear door leads to the deck for relaxing as the sun goes down perhaps while enjoying a barbecued meal. The 2nd floor contains 3 bedrooms and a wide hallway with an updated hall bathroom; the front-facing master bedroom has its own bathroom with a stall shower. In the finished basement you will find a carpeted family room, great for play or movie-watching. There's also a large powder room and storage shelves. At the rear of the basement is a Laundry Room and a half garage for storage only. There is an economical gas-fired house boiler and a gas-fired domestic hot water heater.
