Here it is: an affordable, giant home - maybe your forever home? - in West Mt Airy. A standalone five bedroom farm house on a giant 33 x 74 foot wide lot, with a big grassy backyard that is completely fenced in. The original layout on the first floor is intact with a separate entryway/hall and rooms connected through wood-trimmed double doorways, maintaining distinct areas while allowing for continuous flow through the space. Both the living and dining rooms have been painted a deep oxblood red for moody warmth and a homey feel. Off the dining room is a long sunroom/porch that would be ideal as either a powder room or laundry room one day. The kitchen is very large with plenty of cabinetry and room for an eat-in kitchen table. Step out of the kitchen onto the slate patio - perfect for dining al fresco or a morning cup of coffee while your dog runs through the fenced in back yard. The second floor holds three large sunny bedrooms and the full bath, complete with original cast iron tub. On the third floor there are two additional very large bedrooms, as well as a large linen closet. Location wise you get the best of both worlds - a quite block in the city with plenty of green space and walkability, only 15 minutes from Center City. Downtime Bakery and Mermaid Bar are a short stroll down Germantown Ave, and the hiker's paradise Wissahickon park is just down the road. Come see this uniquely positioned home, its the one you've been waiting for!
