Welcome to this lovely East Mount Airy twin with unique private driveway and garden. This home beautifully blends modern eco-friendly features with classic charm. Enter into the inviting living room with stone fireplace and elegant mantle- original pine wood flooring with oak inlay adds timeless appeal. The main floor rounds out with a modern kitchen and a traditional, formal dining room perfect for hosting gatherings and special meals. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms with ample closets. The primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom is a bright and airy retreat, rich with natural light. The finished basement offers versatility and comfort with a vent-less gas stove and plenty of space for a home office, gym, or hobby space- ideal for whatever your lifestyle needs. A real highlight is the separate laundry room with a handsome farmhouse sink and colorful tile accents, with adjoining powder room. The front covered porch overlooks a vibrant and lush rain garden designed and installed by the PA Horticultural Society to reclaim storm water while looking fabulous. Come spring, 200 tulip bulbs will start to bloom. Down the driveway to the detached garage, enter the rear garden. Escape to your private oasis in the city flanked by dogwood and eastern redbud trees, rose bushes and purple beautyberry. At the end of the day, you'll appreciate the energy efficient Solar Panels installed in 2020 and interconnected to PECO for virtually free electricity. Ideal commuting location just minutes from the train at Stenton Station- and near shopping along Germantown Avenue and the natural beauty of Cresheim Trail in Wissahickon Park. We can't wait for you to see this home and experience the vibrant mix of flowers, plants, and trees.
