HANDSOME STONE & STUCCO THREE-STORY TWIN IN THE HEART OF WEST MT AIRY! Located between Mt Airy Village (Weavers Way Coop, Henry School, High Point Café…) and Carpenter Woods, this is one of Philadelphia’s most cherished neighborhoods. The freshly painted interior creates a clean palette for your imagination and décor. The longtime owners of this stone home kept its original integrity intact. High baseboards surround the builder’s 100-year-old hardwood oak and pine flooring. A brick hearth and wood mantle corner fireplace accents the Living Room. The classic look of this SOUTHWEST-FACING Dining Room’s many windows and built-ins ensure the room's year-round sunny disposition with ample storage. The galley Kitchen has doors leading to the basement and outside. The generous back yard, encased in fencing and grapevines, has been a focal family point during their many years here. There is also a first floor Den that can become a quiet corner for a variety of uses. Upstairs are five bedrooms, two hall bathrooms, lots of windows and ample closets on both second and third floors. There is a lot more storage area in the basement, along with the washer and dryer, a convenient toilet, and hurricane door access to the back yard. ENERGY COST$, EFFICIENCY AND ASSURANCE: Energy savings are found in the Velocity boiler’s 95% efficient gas-fired heating system as well as from the gas-fired domestic hot water tank and range. Economical summer air conditioning is delivered by six mini-splits (one cools the 1st floor and one for each bedroom - to be used as needed). Ceiling fans add to the comfort in spring, fall and summer, No worries about water pressure or similar issues seen in most houses this age because the main water supply line was replaced from the house to the street in December 2023. Come see if your family’s needs fit this West Mt Airy “just the right-size” property like Cinderella fit just right into her slipper!
