Property Description
Classic three-story twin in the Mount Airy, showcasing timeless Victorian character and exceptional space. Built circa 1888, this semi-detached beauty offers six bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and five fireplaces adorned with stunning, intricate tile work. Original architectural details have been preserved, while important upgrades have been added including updated electric, a new sewer line, newer roof (2018), replacement windows, a fully renovated kitchen, and modernized baths. Elevated from the street on a spacious lot with front, side, and rear yards, the home offers privacy and a true sense of retreat. The first floor welcomes you with a generous enclosed porch-ideal for bike and tool storage or a sunny sitting area-leading to newly restored original double entry doors. Gorgeous hardwood floors flow throughout, guiding you into a gracious living room centered around a striking Victorian fireplace. The previous owners used the fireplaces often, but the current owner has not used the fireplace nor has inspected the chimneys, they are being conveyed "as-is." The formal dining room features its own fireplace, creating an elegant space for entertaining. The recently renovated, enormous kitchen is filled with natural light and boasts abundant stone counter space, a center island, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry-truly the heart of the home. A renovated powder room, mudroom, and direct access to the large, flat, sun-drenched rear yard complete the main level, offering seamless indoor-outdoor living perfect for gatherings, gardening, or relaxation. Upstairs, the second floor includes three generously sized bedrooms, each with its own fireplace. The front and middle bedrooms connect and can easily function as a spacious primary suite, and the rear bedroom has a spacious cedar closet. A recently renovated hall bath completes this level. The third floor provides three additional versatile rooms-ideal for guest bedrooms, home offices, an artist or yoga studio, den, or a private retreat. The full plumbing stack was recently replaced and extends to the third floor, facilitating an easy renovation to add another bathroom if desired. Conveniently located near neighborhood favorites including Downtime Bakery, McMenamin's Tavern, Mt. Airy Tap Room, Doho, Adelie Coffee, Grocery Outlet, Young American Cider & Tasting Room, and Reanimator Coffee opening soon one block away. Mallery Playround, Cliveden Park, and Cliveden of the National Trust are moments away. The Chestnut Hill East and West lines plus bus routes 23, 18, and 81 are close by. With easy access to Center City, Lincoln Drive, major highways, and the suburbs, this is an opportunity to own a character-filled, 1880s Mount Airy home.
