Property Description
Presenting Cresheim Farm, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an extra special, secluded homestead on 1.4 acres in the heart of Mount Airy. Originally deeded to German Quaker settlers by William Penn in the late 1600’s, the original portion of the stone buildings date to 1703 and 1774, with later additions throughout the years. The current owners have been the stewards of this special property since 1988. Cozy spaces, random width hardwood floors, deep windowsills, wainscoting and other original details can be found throughout the home. The driveway off Crittenden St leads to a side patio and family entrance. The farmhouse kitchen has doors to the front brick courtyard and a second stone patio. The dining room, with original deep windowsills and built-ins, has stairs to a private one bedroom suite on the second floor, with full hall bath and a closet – perfect for a home office, guest or nanny suite. Tucked off the kitchen is a quaint powder room. The large living room is perfect for entertaining, with a fireplace and built-ins and a lovely Dutch door to the courtyard. A cozy sitting room with fireplace, and a sun-filled sunroom, with walls of windows, offers gorgeous views of the rear yard and pool. The second floor offers a large primary suite with fireplace, walk-in closet and a fantastic bathroom with walk-in shower overlooking the lush yard. A second large bedroom, full hall bath and office complete the second floor. The third floor offers 2 bedrooms and a full hall bath. Multiple gardens, specimen plantings, heritage trees, in-ground pool, lovely sitting areas, and the original 1700s springhouse round out this truly fantastic property. This ultra-convenient location is close to the train, the shopping and dining of Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill, all with easy access to the trails of the Wissahickon. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime Mount Airy opportunity.
