Original woodwork, hardwood floors throughout. Entry into the dwelling is a spacious foyer. The Living Room has been a favorite room with its brick hearth and working wood fireplace. The spacious Dining Room has glass-fronted built-ins, an original light fixture, and a tin ceiling, perfect for entertaining. There is still a Butler's Pantry with built-ins and serves as a convenient pantry to the Kitchen. The are workable back stairs from the Kitchen to the second floor. The Laundry Room at the back of the house leads to a large yard, including along side the house, allowing for outdoor entertaining, gardening and child's play. There is an additional utility sink in the Laundry Room. Each upper floor has three bedrooms and its own full bath. The landing on the second floor is large enough to serve as office or sitting space. The second floor bath has an original leaded window, adding to the charm of this level. The Main Bedroom, on the third floor is huge with a cathedral ceiling, and flowing natural light. It has its own sitting area. This room, with its spaciousness and light, has also served as an artist's studio in the past. The smaller middle bedroom on the third floor works well as a walk-in closet. There is great ceiling clearance in the large basement, and room for plenty of storage. Perhaps best of all is the fabulous location in West Mount Airy, not far from Germantown Avenue's central business area, the Weavers Way Co-Op, Blue Marble Bookstore, and multiple transportation choices. Not only that, but Wissahickon Park is nearby with its many trails, Forbidden Drive, the Creek, and Valley Green Inn.
