About this home
Tucked within the vibrant Mount Airy Village, the heart of West Mt. Airy, sits a two-story stone home where the past and the present shake hands. Originally built in 1925, 7030 Greene Street has been meticulously updated to meet the needs of contemporary living while preserving its classic architectural charm. Fully renovated in 2010 and thoughtfully upgraded in subsequent years, this semi-detached residence combines historical allure with modern comfort and efficiency. The ground floor features an open plan that flows from a sun-kissed solarium, through a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace, into a spacious dining room. The renovated kitchen boasts ample cabinetry, expansive counter space, and modern appliances. Climb the stairs to the second level, and there’s space to play with — a plush, sunlit master suite with an ensuite bath, or a generously-sized second bedroom that’s anything but second best. Throughout the home, you'll find beautiful vintage hardwood floors, 1920s woodwork, high ceilings, and custom-built radiator covers. Modern electrical, plumbing, and air conditioning meld seamlessly with the home’s original elegance. The home boasts a beautiful new front garden and a charming outdoor sitting area that not only captivates onlookers but also invites neighbors to pause and say hello. At 7030 Greene Street, you’re just steps from Weavers Way Food Co-op, High Point Cafe, and the Big Blue Marble Book Store. This home isn’t just a place to live but a part of a community that thrives on warm welcomes and spirited involvement. In the past year, this home has seen a number of high-quality upgrades to enhance comfort and reduce energy consumption. A Mitsubishi mini-split keeps the climate just right, a new tankless water heater ensures continuous hot water, and the kitchen sports a new energy-saving LG fridge and dishwasher. The full, unfinished basement presents a blank slate for whatever your heart desires. Speakeasy, workshop, you name it; it’s ready to suit any purpose. New doors on the garage boost both accessibility and security. All in all, 7030 Greene Street is more than just a house; it's a home that respects its past while fully embracing the future. We invite you to become part of its story. Swing by, take a look, and see why this isn't just a place to live — but a place to thrive.
