Property Description
This groundbreaking residence is one of the earliest examples of International Style design in Philadelphia. It is situated on West Mt Airy's most desirable blocks. In this 5-bedroom home with 4.5 baths, you will find expansive formal rooms, glass French doors, fireplaces indoors and out, refinished oak floors throughout, a NEW kitchen, NEW baths, separate entrance to home office and full bath, all streaming in direct natural light. The house features high-end designer-brand lighting fixtures, wall-mounted TVs, custom wainscoting throughout the living room and dining room, and Efficient LED lighting throughout the interior of the home. Situated on a large meticulously landscaped lot with mature trees abutting Fairmount Park, it feels more like a Country House than a home 20 minutes from Center City. The kitchen's main area features an adjacent butler's pantry w/laundry and an island topped with marble granite; handmade English tile backsplash, and top-grade Viking appliances. Upstairs, you find a master bedroom en suite with a large walk-in closet and separate dressing room. The third-floor bedroom is also en suite and provides its own peaceful oasis. Downstairs, you will find a finished basement with newly installed carpet (Jan. 2023) and a custom-built expansive storage area. Outside, exiting the kitchen, you find one of the most-loved spaces, with its fireside seating and long wraparound terrace. There is also a long tree-lined driveway with an extension for parking multiple cars. The oversized 24x30 garage was custom-built to match architecturally with the house. It fits two cars with significant extra storage space. In the garden, you will also find a custom-built firewood shed, paved walkways and intimate paved side patio. The exterior is freshly painted. Nothing was spared with regard to home systems and technology, including a newer Bryant heater (installed in April 2018) and central air, both zoned. It is a smart home with Control 4, featuring a state-of-the-art alarm system with motion sensors and contact sensors on all doors and windows, exterior recordable video cameras, built-in audio speakers in the kitchen, living room, patio area and master bedroom, lawn and landscaping sprinklers. This truly one-of-a-kind house takes you from mundane to magical and can open up a new world of creativity.
