The wrought iron fence frames the entrance to this grand Victorian twin, circa 1857. The large covered front porch is punctuated by Victorian columns, decorative brackets and cornices. The quoins add aesthetic detail to the exterior corners, while the newer mansard roof and the floor-to-ceiling window create a welcoming start to this 3-story, 5 bed, 2.5 bath twin home in West Central Germantown. The main door is a half glass door with additional transom above that allows the natural light to shine through the NE facing entryway. The pathway down the side yard of the house opens up to a wonderful and large back yard with mature shade trees, privacy and plenty of room to create gardens or a magical outdoor space for family and friends. Here is the floorpan; First floor: Enter into a hallway that connects to a large formal living room with a decorative wooden mantle and mirror as the centerpiece. The large windows and tall ceilings create an open space while the baseboards, crown molding and ceiling medallion give this room a finished feel of warmth and sophistication. The dining room is flooded with southern light through large SE facing windows. In addition to the crown molding and baseboards, the center plaster medallion creates a vintage, elegant focal point and the random width southern pine floors throughout bring in tradition and warmth. Down the hallway, past the powder room, is the kitchen which is equipped with gas cooking, side by side refrigerator/freezer with water dispenser and ice maker, built in microwave, garbage disposal and dishwasher. There is ample cabinetry and plenty of Corian counter space. Along the SW side of the kitchen is the eat-in area that gets drenched with sunlight. A perfect spot to sit and enjoy every season’s beauty. Head out the back door to the large deck that is perfect for entertaining. The kitchen was added onto the original house and therefore has supplemental electric baseboard heating A spacious coffee nook and large pantry complete the kitchen space and bring you to the hallway with a large coat closet and conveniently located first floor laundry. The second floor could be outfitted as an entire dedicated space for the primary suite. Picture this, a large bedroom with an attached walk in closet and an attached bathroom with shower over tub, tiled floor, vanity and medicine cabinet. Down the hall is a retreat space for watching TV, reading or doing yoga with access to a private AZEK balcony. At the front end of the hall is a generously sized office, with bookshelves and plenty of storage space with three closets! The third floor offers 2 additional bedrooms, an office/library, a walk-in storage room with shelving and a full bathroom. Close and convenient to public transportation (both bus and commuter train), to shops on Germantown Avenue, in the midst of a neighborhood with nationally acclaimed historic sites: Wyck, Johnson House, Ebenezer Maxwell mansion and the Germantown White House. Nearby, you can find a variety of both public and private schools. Taxes have been reassessed for 2025. Gas fired hot water heater, 2018 Brand new sewer pipe from curb trap to foundation, June 2024
