220 Idell St, Philadelphia, PA 19119

Tucked behind a leafy front yard on a tree-lined street, 220 Idell is perfectly charming with its arched front windows, light post, and fenced patio. A collection of stone and Tudor homes grace the block, one hidden from the next by a tree here or a flowering bush there. Step up from the sidewalk and pass the patio as you enter the property’s first level. A sunny enclosed porch greets upon arrival and offers plenty of space to stow coats and shoes on the way into the house. The porch is also a great place to sit with a book and enjoy the splendor of the block — especially as the seasons change. Continuing on, enter the living room which features a marble-surround wood-burning fireplace with windows on either side and lovely hardwood flooring that runs front to back. A convenient powder room is nestled off of the living room, near the stairwell. The first floor’s open layout allows the resident and their guests the ability to move between the living room, dining room, and kitchen with ease. The windowed kitchen offers a breakfast bar with pendants, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and plenty of storage space. Brown shaker cabinets pair well with the granite counters, and a lovely butcher block cabinet with floating shelves makes the perfect coffee and tea station! With the kitchen, dining room, and back deck all in the same vicinity, hosting company is a breeze. The raised wooden deck is accessed via the dining room, beyond sliding glass doors, and offers plenty of space for a 4-seat table, grill, and potted plants. Follow the stairwell up to the second floor where you will find three bedrooms and a hallway bathroom. The primary bedroom at the front of the house has a great layout, with plenty of space for a large bed, side tables, multiple dressers, and even a chair or two. Two additional bedrooms, each with 3-4 windows, are accessed via the wide upstairs hallway. The hall bathroom is complete with a tiled tub/shower enclosure, chrome fixtures, and shelving. A hallway linen closet completes the second floor. Before heading on your way, step down to the finished walkout basement. There is additional living space at the bottom of the steps, a hallway for storage near the washer and dryer, and a convenient powder room. The basement also has direct access to the attached garage with an automatic opener. An exterior basement door leads to the driveway, next to which is an open green space that is well suited for gardening. The central location of 220 Idell is one of its best traits. Mount Airy is known for the countless green spaces that charm the community, like the 2,000-acre Wissahickon Valley Park, Cliveden Park, and the Awbury Arboretum. Locals love meeting friends at Mt Airy Coffee Company and popping into The Frosted Fox Cake Shop for sweet treats. There are also some great restaurants nearby. Stop into the Mount Airy Tap Room for a quick meal with friends or enjoy an upscale dinner at Jansen. Mount Airy Village is a delight, with the Weavers Way Co-Op, a card shop, a cafe, an antique and plant store, and more. Additional grocery stores are scattered between Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill, including ACME Markets less than half a mile away. We look forward to showing you all that this property and the lovely Mount Airy neighborhood have to offer!
