307 W Mount Pleasant Ave

Philadelphia, PA 19119

If it is space and simplicity you need , this property will suit you. If you yearn for walkability to dining or nature or transportation, this is the one. If it is affordability, in one of the most rapidly appreciating neighborhoods in Philadelphia, don't look further than this pretty West Mt Airy twin. The current homeowners have made lots of improvements and upgrades: new kitchen, new furnace, new plumbing, new appliances, and new electricity, and more. The house sits up off the road, and provides lots of privacy, even though it sits in the middle of all the vibrancy of Mt Airy. From the sidewalk, take the staircase to a spacious covered porch that serves as an outdoor room for many months of the year. From the porch, you enter into a bright and well-proportioned living room with high ceilings, pristine hardwood floors, and windows on two sides. The living room and dining room are separated by the staircase, yet there is a circular flow to the space at either end. The elegant dining room leads to a splendid new, true eat-in kitchen, with soapstone counters, high-end stainless steel appliances, and charming patterned tile floor. Every intelligent design decision was made in keeping with the "early Pennsylvania farmhouse vernacular," without being hamstrung by it. Up the staircase to the second floor brings you to three commodious bedrooms and a full bath with large shower. The middle bedroom (most recently used as the perfect home office) is lined with floor to ceiling bookshelves that will make you the envy of your friends. The most surprising space of all is on the third floor; the primary bedroom suite. With its ample square footage, vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, large bath, and skylight, its a space that will be hard to leave in the morning . The basement is high-ceilinged , spacious, and bright, with an exterior walk-out to the back yard. The deep yard has lovely mature plantings, a patio, and is fully fenced. It is a rare house that conveys as much serenity and warmth . Come, visit, and feel the welcome of home.
