Property Description
The 100 block of West Gorgas Lane, no longer the best kept secret in West Mt. Airy, is ready to welcome a new owner! This classic 4 bedroom, 1.5 bath renovated brick twin has been lovingly maintained and retains all of its original, historic character with the updated conveniences of modern life. This charming home features original refinished cherry hardwood floors on all 3 levels, 10 foot ceilings on the first floor, a central HVAC system, replacement windows for an abundance of natural light, a new roof, updated electrical service and more. The covered front porch leads you to the original Victorian-era front door and then to a traditional foyer that offers a welcome respite from the elements into your own space. Upon entering the wide hallway, the formal living room is off to the right with a gas fireplace as the focal point. Next on the right, off the hallway, is the staircase to the second floor and coat closet as you head to the dining room. The formal dining room can easily accommodate a large gathering and showcases a decorative fireplace with striking inlaid detail. The remodeled eat-in kitchen features a stainless steel appliance suite including a gas range, custom solid-wood cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and a greenhouse window to bring the outside inside. In addition, there is a first floor powder room and back staircase to the second floor. Just beyond the kitchen lies a large mudroom with a relocated built-in cabinet original to the house, a laundry center, and rear access to the fenced-in back yard with deck and hardscaping. The second floor features a large bedroom suite at the back of the house (just off the back staircase) with ample space for a king sized bed, gorgeous original built-in closets, and a walk in closet / dressing area that connects to the full bathroom. The full bath includes a step-in shower and a Jacuzzi tub. Just past the hallway display cabinet off the front staircase, the huge front bedroom on the second floor showcases a large bay window and yet another decorative fireplace. The third floor consists of two more large bedrooms that continue to highlight the homes natural light. The full, dry basement is waiting to be finished with its ample storage and high ceilings. Located on a quiet one way street, its just a short walk to either the Carpenter Lane SEPTA station or the Allens Lane SEPTA station and High Point Cafe. The Mt. Airy Breakfast Boutique, Melelani Cafe, Lovett Library, and the shops and restaurants of Germantown Avenue are just blocks away.
