SOLD 11/09. No Longer Available. Enjoy 4 seasons in this larger, updated Mt Airy twin on one of the most sought-after blocks in the neighborhood. During winter months, cozy up in front of the large, stone fireplace in the living room. In summer, sit out on your front porch and exchange waves (and perhaps cocktails) with friendly neighbors who are doing the same. In fall, watch your mature Japanse Maple on your front lawn turn into an explosion of red. In spring, watch the bloom of your garden flowers and plants, including roses, hydrangeas, lavendar, violets, tulips, etc. Enter home through formal vertibule, with new ceramic floor and original crystal light fixture. Pass through the french door and step into a surprisingly large living room, full of light and boasting a large stone fireplace and hardwood floors outlined in mahogany inlay. Move on to the large dining room, complete with original chair rails and wainscoating. Note the size: large enough for your family and friends, whether formal or casual entertaining. A designer paint scheme highlights the formal details (complete interior and exterior paint completed in 2006). The dining room makes an easy flow into the custom-kitchen from 2 directions. Kitchen was professionally designed and installed in 1998 w/new granite counters done in '09. Ceramic floor and ceramic full-wall backsplash. Loads of maple cabinets and tons of counter-space. High-end GE Profile stainless steel stove and dishwasher were installed in 2007. Custom cabinetry includes a glass-front double cabinet, lit from within to display glass and crystal. Lighting includes recessed on dimmer switches. Need outlets? We went crazy with kitchen counter outlets here! You can plug-in everything you'll need to throw a party for 20 or more. This house is great for entertaining. The breakfast room has hardwood floors and a an oversized french window (this was a custom-order window due to the size of it). Lots of light! New master bath completed '09!! Neighborhood Description Mt Airy is a delight. People love it here. There is now a surge of people moving into Mt Airy from suburbs and from NJ, so I hope we will retain our character. Very diverse neighborhood. Excellent restaurants and some good nightlife. The business association is very active. Downtown Mt Airy is on an upswing. Lots of young families. Coop food stores and coop nursery schools. Fair amount of same-sex parent families. Lots of interracial couples and mixed race children. Very socially conscious community. Everyone is welcomed. "Crunchy" people. Lots of city officials live here; judges, politicians, etc. Above-average concentration of PhDs. Jazz Cafes. Easy access to Center City via R7 Train and/or driving (15 min drive). Only downside: LOTS of leaves in the fall :)
