Welcome to the heart of Mt. Airy village. This inviting Dutch colonial/Craftsman style stone twin is in an ideal location-one block from Weavers Way Coop, Highpoint Cafe, Blue Marble Bookstore and more- and less than a block from Carpenters Woods. It is only a ten-minute walk to one of two SEPTA train stations and a 20 minute ride to Center City! Enjoy the vitality of West Mt. Airy from the covered front porch of this beautifully maintained home. Enter into a charming living room with an entire wall of built-in bookshelves and original stone fireplace. A large opening leads to the dining room with a built-in walnut and painted wood hutch and two original silver sconces. The cook's kitchen has painted white cabinets with frosted glass doors, stainless steel counter, and high quality appliances including a stainless Bosch dishwasher, stainless Fisher Paykel counter depth fridge, and first-floor laundry center with high efficiency Miele stainless front load washer and dryer. A Dutch door from the kitchen leads to the welcoming fenced back yard. Upstairs is a large landing with a closet and doorways to four bedrooms and a full bath. Each bedroom has a ceiling fan, closet and plenty of windows. The basement is large and unfinished. The yard features two beautiful large oaks (white oak in front, red oak in back) that have been regularly maintained, and is landscaped with literally hundreds of plants. Enjoy the huge covered front porch (12' x 25') or relax in the cedar fence enclosed back yard with a red and grey Pennsylvania fieldstone patio and cedar pergola. The stone garage in back is small for a car, but has plenty of room for storage. The owners have paid particular attention to important structural work including 20 new windows with transferrable lifetime warranty (2011), stone pointing work on the entire house, garage, and new masonry on inside garage walls (2015), new water heater (2017), much new wiring and 200 amp electric, and blown-in cellulose insulation in attic. The pitched roof in front was replaced in 2002 by the previous owner and the flat roof, replaced in 2013, has been re-coated every two years including May 2017, new chimney crown in 2010, and roof vents installed for maintaining the health of the roof/house and improved energy efficiency. New garage door, new gutters including architecturally appropriate round gutters in front, and the house was painted in 2012
