Welcome to 507 E Murdoch Road! This stunning 1930s Dutch stone colonial, nestled in the coveted “Gowen Estate” section of East Mount Airy, offers the perfect blend of classic architecture and contemporary upgrades. Situated on a picturesque, tree-lined street, this 5-bedroom, 3 full and 2 half-bath home spans over 3,300 square feet across four thoughtfully designed levels. Fully remodeled just six years ago, it has been lovingly upgraded, including a spa pool, a rear deck, plantation shutters, and a finished basement. The front yard includes beautiful paper birch trees, fine shrubbery, and a fence. Step inside to a sunlit living and dining area adorned with coffered ceilings and a stately mantled fireplace. French doors lead you into the inviting sunroom, surrounded by oversized windows that bathe the space in natural light. The chef’s kitchen is a dream—spacious, refined, and perfectly suited for both cooking and entertaining, with easy access to the deck, spa pool, and side yard. On the second floor, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms, a full hall bath, and a luxurious primary en suite. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and a charming hall bathroom, complete with a clawfoot tub. The fully finished basement provides a work-out or family room, a laundry nook, a half bath, ample storage, and its own entrance. The oversized garage accommodates one large car or two smaller ones, with additional parking in the carport under the deck. Beyond the home itself, the location is unbeatable. You’re just moments from the vibrant dining, shopping, and amenities of Mount Airy, Chestnut Hill, Wynmoor & Glenside; plus it's only a 10-minute walk to the Mt. Airy train station for a quick commute to Center City, or to Wm. Gray 30th St Station for Amtrak, and to PHL. This exceptional home is move-in ready. We welcome your interest in seeing it!

Welcome to 507 E Murdoch Road! This GORGEOUS, 1930’s Dutch stone colonial in the “Gowen Estate” section of East Mount Airy was fully remodeled just 3 years ago and offers the quintessential blend of a classic home and modern finishes ideally situated on a sublimely beautiful and semi secluded tree lined street. This 5 Bed, 3 full, 2 half bath home, boasting over 3,300 SF over 4 levels, has been lovingly maintained by its owners who continued to improve upon it with nearly $100K of upgrades including a Spa Pool, rear deck, plantation shutters and custom blinds! Upon entering your sun-dappled home you have a large living/dining room with coffered ceilings, complete with a beautiful mantled fireplace which in turn, via 2 sets of French doors, leads into your beautiful sun-room, surrounded by large windows. Enjoy cooking and entertaining in your wonderfully spacious and subtly elegant chef's kitchen with easy access to your deck, Sap Pool and side yard, great for entertaining and relaxation. Up to the 2nd floor you will find two spacious bedrooms, a full bath and your capacious primary en suite. The 3rd boasts two more good sized bedrooms and a full hall bathroom with a clawfoot tub. Your fully finished basement offers wonderful flex space, a laundry nook, half bath, plenty of storage space, its own entrance and access to your oversized garage (it may even be possible to fit 2 smaller cars here!). Note that with one car parked in the garage you can also tandem park another car directly in front of the garage in your "carport" under the deck and just off of a private access road. Let's not forget that you are moments away from all the best restaurants, shopping and all the great amenities that Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill offer and a 10 minute walk from Mt Airy train station for a quick ride into center city. What are you waiting for, this home could be yours now!!!

Residential Single-Family Detached-3 District
The RSD, Residential Single-Family Detached districts are primarily intended to accommodate detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RSD zoning be applied in areas where the land use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Code includes three RSD districts that are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements.
