This extra-wide home on one of West Mt Airy’s most enchanting blocks beautifully melds a bright and breezy West Coast vibe with classic Philadelphia charm. The stone facade has a covered porch overlooking the front yard with mature landscaping, including lush peonies and flowering herbs. The living space with wood-burning stove has freshly refinished original oak floors and is flooded with light from sliders to the large rear deck with privacy fence off the generous dining area, which flows right into the kitchen custom finished with knotty pine ceiling and wall accent. The maple lower cabinets, complete with a coffee bar, are topped with charcoal solid-surface counters while the island with breakfast bar has a butcher block top. Behind the slide-in range is a gorgeous handmade teal tile backsplash with an architectural range hood, and above the sink with gooseneck faucet there’s a bank of open shelving. The stainless steel side-by-side fridge is tucked into a sweet nook that provides direct access from the kitchen to the deck, with a floor-to-ceiling window bringing in more gorgeous light. Up the wide original staircase from the living room are three ample bedrooms. The large front bedroom is flooded with eastern light from a set of double windows and has a generous closet. The rear bedroom has plaster cove ceilings, two closets and two windows, one with an extra-deep sill. The middle bedroom has a window with extra-deep sill and its own good-sized closet. There’s a hall linen closet and ceramic tile bath with a large window and storage vanity with a sweet glass shelf. Between the basement with laundry and the attached garage, there’s tons of workshop and storage space. And of course the parking pad is a huge bonus. In one of Philly’s most highly sought-out neighborhoods, this block of Durand St offers easy access to Wissahickon trails, Germantown Ave shopping and dining, and the Carpenter Lane train station for easy trips into Center City.
