Elegant, well-maintained, three-story center-hall stone Colonial located on one of the most coveted, tree-lined blocks in West Mount Airy, Philadelphia. Walking distance to the Wissahickon Valley’s woodland trails, Weaver’s Way food co-op, neighborhood coffee shop, playground, commuter rail, and more, this is the one you’ve been waiting for! With total square footage just under 5,000, it’s not too small but not too big. This lovely home sits on a lightly-traveled, tree-lined street and offers 5+ bedrooms and 3-½ baths with the potential of a fourth full bath on the third floor. Built in 1929, the house features the fine craftsmanship of the past but offers modern features like an attached three-car garage, two-zone central air conditioning, screened porch, eat-in kitchen, and good-sized closets. From the street, walk up the lovely stone walkway to the front door that opens to a spacious entry hall with coat closet, powder room, entrance to the finished basement, and charming Dutch door to the backyard and terrace. To the right of the foyer is the well-proportioned living room with wood-burning fireplace, built-in bookcases and case work; a door to an appealing screened porch; and beautiful random-width oak floors. Beyond the living room is the family room with bookcases, another fireplace, and space enough for everyone to relax and watch the latest blockbuster series on TV. To the left of the foyer is the beautiful light-filled dining room--with its own fireplace and built-in storage--that will easily hold your biggest celebrations. Through the dining room is the eat-in kitchen with two sinks, four-burner gas cooktop, Sub Zero refrigerator, and soapstone counters. The back staircase, another entrance to the basement, and a back door exit that leads to the garage make the kitchen the hub of the house. Up the elegant turned staircase with its sunny landing, you reach the smartly-designed second floor. Every bedroom is spacious, every closet is workable, and each has built-in bookcases. To the right at the top of the stairs is the primary suite with its own private bath, two closets (one walk-in), and windows on three sides. To the left from the second-floor landing are the additional bedrooms and hall bath. At the far end of the second floor is the fourth bedroom with its own bathroom, and adjacent large office with bookcases and decorative fireplace. The second floor is completed with a laundry closet, storage closet, and hallway to the back staircase that takes you to the third floor. The third floor offers ample storage as well as two rooms and a bathroom that could serve as guest quarters, au pair suite., or office. The walk-out basement has a large finished space with fireplace and bar, mechanical room, and middle room with exit and window, perfect for gardening or other crafting. Exceptionally well-built, the details throughout will delight. Mature trees and lush understory create a private oasis.
