...A significant home with the most spectacular character on a most beautiful tree-lined block. This 6 bedroom + family room, 3.5 bath home is situated on a beautiful 1/3 of an acre just two blocks from Mt Airy Village (Weavers Way Coop, High Point, and the Henry School) and Carpenter Woods and the Wissahickon trails.

Too much character to mention—the most incredible windows and light you will find in any home. Pine floors, high ceilings, original moldings and trim. The exterior has a remarkable turret, rounded front porch and an abundance of sophisticated, layered character.

This is one of three homes on the block originally built for the three Strawbridge daughters in the late 1880's. The current owners have been here a half century and are one of only four owners of this important home over its 130+ years. It has been lovingly maintained over the years with all its character intact, but not recently renovated. So move-in condition but buyers will likely want to update/renovate. The home has no electrical issues but does contain knob & tube wiring.

The 600 block of Phil Ellena is a quiet, two-block long non-through street with minimal traffic. Enjoy the sound of the birds singing and not the traffic. An astounding home in an absolutely perfect location.
