Description

There are some blocks that just feel magical when you walk down them and the 300 block of Wellesley in West Mount Airy is one of those blocks! Lined with trees and tudor style twin homes with front gardens, brick walkways and mossy covered porch roofs, you will feel charmed from your first steps down this street. What your eye won’t see at first is the tight knit relationships between neighbors that always have a block party in the late summer/early fall, the occasional whole block yard sale, and...There are some blocks that just feel magical when you walk down them and the 300 block of Wellesley in West Mount Airy is one of those blocks! Lined with trees and tudor style twin homes with front gardens, brick walkways and mossy covered porch roofs, you will feel charmed from your first steps down this street. What your eye won’t see at first is the tight knit relationships between neighbors that always have a block party in the late summer/early fall, the occasional whole block yard sale, and the group email they subscribe to so that neighbors can help neighbors and stay in touch about local topics. A third of the way down this one way street on the left hand side you’ll find number 314, a house lovingly cared for by the same owners since 1976. A spacious twin with 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths over 3 levels, all of which are drenched in sunlight on a clear day. Step first into the enclosed front porch, which offers additional living space and 3 walls of gorgeous original windows. Inside the main door is a comfy living room with gas fireplace and an open but formal dining space, both rooms have original oak floors with walnut inlay border. The kitchen with almost pristine original cabinetry and newer appliances completes this level and opens out onto the rear garden. The 2nd floor has three bedrooms, the main with added closet space and the secondary rooms currently used as a den and an office. There is also an updated hall bath. The 3rd floor has two more spacious bedrooms and another full bath. All of the bedrooms also have the original hardwood flooring, painted white in the 3rd floor rear bedroom currently used as a studio space. And if the block and the house were not enough to steal your heart, your logical side will be won over by the location! You are barely more than a stone’s throw to the Allen’s Lane Train Station with High Point Café and the Cresheim Trail, and just a slightly longer walk to the Mount Airy Village (Weaver’s Way Food Co-op, Across the Way, Blue Marble Books, Etc), the Allen’s Lane Art Center with playground and Tennis Courts, the ameneties on Germantown Ave, Carpenter’s Woods, and other great neighborhood spots. ᐧ
