Airy home that delights with its bold colors and 2020 kitchen fully customized, making highly effective use of the space has just come to the market today! Everything you ever wanted comes with this maintenance-free everything-done-for-you: perks include new shingle roof and flats, NEW HVAC, all new re-wiring with knob and tube remediation, new washer and dryer, new water heater, and basement door. At 1,700 square feet, this three-story stone home offers four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, with the option of converting the third-floor suite into a quiet and bright home office or kept as a cozy bedroom. Each room is a delight, whether it’s the fiesta yellow-painted living room with fireplace or the light-filled corn stalk green formal dining room. One of the brightest spots in the home, however, is the kitchen, which is awash in color (mulberry to be exact!) and features open shelving, new stainless appliances, and granite countertops. Also finished basement with wonderful storage and great play room for children. There are original hardwood floors throughout the main level with whisper soft carpeting on the second and third floors. Last but not least is the home’s sun-filled backyard. Located in the Pelham section of West Mt Airy where you are surrounded by architecture including Tudor, Jacobean, Flemish, Italianate, Georgian, Queen Anne, Norman, Classical and a range of hybrid styles. Young architects, who later achieved great distinction, designed these stately homes for newly wealthy Philadelphia businessmen and their families. The Pelham neighborhood survived its first century little changed in character, its mature trees and lovely gardens gracing its largely unaltered homes. Built in 1925, this home starts charming you as soon as you walk up to the front flower garden with brick patio and serene open sitting porch - all this within walking distance of the Wissahickon, two train stations, shopping and a newly renovated library. You've seen the "I like Mt Airy" front license plates with the smiley face. This home illustrates exactly why folks like living in this area so much!
