THE PERFECT HOUSE ON THE PERFECT BLOCK.Welcome to this beautiful, character-filled home, located on the famously friendly block of 200 W Haines St. Call it the perfect starter home, or a 1,400 sq ft upgrade complete with raised beds, sun room, massive primary bedroom, and extra 1/2 bath. Enter into a large sun room or mudroom, perfect for plants, bikes, boots, and more plants. From here you pass through the interior door into the living area where you will find original pine floors (just refinished), original molding and trim, and original banister and stairs. The dining room features an under-stair coat or storage closet and also hook ups for a ceiling mounted projector if you are looking for that elevated movie night. As you continue back, the light-filled kitchen with abundant solid cabinets, gas range, butcher block countertops, and tons of storage is charming and functional. In the rear of the first floor notice the perfect jar/can pantry just before the newly added, contemporary half bath. Head up the stairs to three bedrooms: a huge primary bedroom with a bay window and walk in closet, a generous middle bedroom and a smaller office or flex room in the back. The bathroom has been expanded from the original floor plan and is spacious and bright. Downstairs you will find a clean, large, basement with plenty of head room (potential for easy conversion to ?finished?), laundry, and a work bench. Out back is a welcoming yard with 3 raised beds and plenty of room to grill and garden. Let?s talk neighborhood? it?s hard to beat this spot for convenience to everything Germantown and Mt Airy has to offer. Ultimo Coffee, local classic A & N produce, and The Waldorf School are right around the corner. Weaver?s Way, Attic Brewery, Deke?s BBQ, Frosted Fox, Earth Bread and Brew, and of course, Wissahickon Park are all within 5 minutes.
