Property Description
Forget charming, spacious, and convenient - this sprawling 5-6 bedroom stone and Tudor masterpiece transcends mere adjectives. It's a portal to a bygone era of meticulous craftsmanship and timeless artistry, interwoven with modern luxuries that pamper. Stepping onto the wrap-around porch and approaching the solid oak door is like entering a Downton Abbey dreamscape. An oak and terra cotta vestibule greets, then leads to a generous foyer, with ample space to shed coats before venturing into this architectural ode to sophistication. In the Living Room, thickly layered crown molding tops plaster walls, sunlight from a huge bank of windows glints off original floors, and built-in leaded glass bookcases beckon you to sit by the wood-burning fireplace with its vintage Mercer tile for a cozy evening enveloped in warmth and the spaciousness of this room. The grandeur doesn't stop there – a large Dining Room with another huge bank of windows, built-in leaded glass china cabinet, and, again, that multi-layered crown molding, plus contemporary sconces and chandelier, is perfect for entertaining on either an intimate or grand scale.
But amidst the old-world charm, modernity calls. A renovated powder room in the foyer sparkles. A chef's dream kitchen awaits, with sleek cabinets, tumbled stone backsplash, granite countertops, and a Brizo Artesso faucet, like a piece of contemporary jewelry, that presides over this culinary playground. KitchenAid appliances hum, an island beckons, and a mudroom with cabinetry and counter space offers storage and access to the rear deck.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom awaits, a huge sanctuary of calm and FOUR closets with mirrored doors, original floors, and an enormous bank of windows. A renovated en-suite bathroom with leaded glass windows is swathed in marble, sparkling heavyweight nickel hardware, and timeless gray and white. Two more ample bedrooms share a large vintage bathroom. The third floor unfurls like an untapped story. The spacious landing on this floor is anchored by an enormous 5x7 walk-in closet and a bathroom, as smartly renovated as the 2nd-floor bath, in nickel and marble! One bedroom cradles a future nursery or office, another basks in sunshine, and a vast 26-foot-long third awaits your vision - perhaps a second suite, au pair haven, or rec room. Outside, sunshine bathes the fenced yard, laughter echoing off ivy-covered walls. A spacious deck whispers of starlit evenings spent sipping wine and basking in the moonlit symphony of crickets. And, two dedicated parking spots ensure your chariot awaits, ready to whisk you to the vibrant heart of Center City. Perfectly situated, it is in the CW Henry Catchment and just a short walk to Weaver's Way Co-op, a bookstore, cafes, boutiques, and two train stations for easy access to Center City. It is also an easy train ride to NYC, Baltimore, or DC. Walk to Carpenter’s Woods, or any of the trailheads of Wissahickon Valley Park. Additionally, Mt Airy’s exceptional community offers festivals and events throughout the year, as well as access to every mover, shaker, and thought leader in Philadelphia. This isn't just a house; it's a tapestry woven from community, history, elegance, and modern comfort. It's a statement, a sanctuary, and a chapter waiting to be written by its next steward. Are you ready to step into a world where timeless beauty and modern comfort meet tranquil living and urban conveniences? Then welcome home.
