Property Description
Introducing 229 W. Gorgas Lane, a fully-restored stone residence in W. Mount Airy! Originally constructed in 1925, this home is reborn with all new features and systems: plumbing, electrical, sewer line, utilities, kitchen, and bathrooms. These replacement upgrades equip the home for new owners and the next 100 years. If you're unfamiliar with the area, 229 W. Gorgas Street is situated in a quiet and cozy corner of the neighborhood on one of five, self-contained streets. A sidewalk leads to Carpenter Lane Regional Rail Station. Even better, there is no pass-through vehicle traffic from the busier streets in the neighborhood. Tax abatement approval pending and documents will be available prior to settlement. Visit an open house this weekend or schedule your private showing today!
