Nestled in the desirable East Mt. Airy neighborhood, this classic 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath twin home offers a rare opportunity to blend historic charm with modern convenience. Just a short stroll from Germantown Avenue, you’ll be immersed in a vibrant community with coffee shops, boutique stores, grocery spots, and essential services. Inside, thoughtful upgrades enhance the home’s original character, including an updated granite/stainless kitchen ready to inspire your inner chef, along with original stained glass and hardwood floors that reflect timeless craftsmanship. Current floor plan features a formal dining room and a breakfast room. The 2-story layout also includes a full basement for ample storage. Outdoor spaces surround the home: front, rear, and side yards await a gardener’s touch, while a spacious, fenced backyard offers a peaceful retreat. The deep lot, flanked by a shared driveway, brings a unique perk—a chance for convenient off-street parking. While many aspects of this home are ready for immediate enjoyment, with a bit of planning and your personal touch, it has the potential to truly shine as a one-of-a-kind haven. Embrace the possibilities and imagine making this East Mt. Airy gem your own. Property appears to have preferential tax assessment which may not be transferrable to a new owner. Buyer is responsible for researching and applying for any applicable tax abatement programs.
