This stunning Tudor-style West Mt. Airy twin is a perfect combination of historic charm, modern amenities, amazing updates & the latest in high-tech & "green, energy-efficient" features. It is the ONLY home in the area with an energy efficient GEO-THERMAL HVAC system, (see Green Remarks below) But energy-efficiency is just the beginning! Enter through the charming front porch into a spacious open floor plan with a classic living room, bright bay windows, a fireplace, a decorative (but not functional) built-in brick oven next to the fireplace that was added in the 1970's by previous owners. This lovely home has many of the original architectural & craftsman features such as beautiful wood crown molding & trim, leaded glass & oval accent windows, gorgeous arched double wood doors in the formal dining room, hardwood floors throughout with some of the original wood floors. If you're into creative cooking & entertaining, this kitchen is to die for! The kitchen is spacious & open with a convenient island, cozy corner seating area, beautiful 42" cherry cabinets with crown molding, exquisite granite counter tops, 2 sinks, 2 ovens, a 6 burner high-quality stove, dishwasher & a huge refrigerator round out the updated stainless appliances. Plus, plenty of storage & food prep area. On the 2nd floor, there are 3 bedrooms with a spacious Master bedroom with it's own fireplace and full bath, two additional bedrooms and a hall bath with a striking polished glass vanity top with double sinks & matching accent tile surrounding the tub. The 3rd floor features two more bedrooms & another updated bath with a vintage style pedestal sink & claw foot tub. The full size basement has a laundry area, exterior door to the rear yard & plenty of storage or work space. The basement also holds a secret surprise - a custom-made wine cellar! The wine cellar * has its own separate cooling system & hand-crafted redwood storage shelving made with care by the homeowner. ( * Note - the wine cellar shelving & cooling unit are excluded but negotiable). Another high-tech bonus is the "Structured Wiring System" throughout the house - an integrated, expandable home data & media system. This means you can have instant, reliable phone, internet & media service in any room. Outside is a spacious rear, side & front yard - fenced in for the safety of pets & little ones. A one-of-a-kind "smart-home" located in the heart of all the conveniences of Mt. Airy & Chestnut Hill, this beauty is a "must-see!"

Property Green Features
Remarks: GEO-THERMAL systems are one of the "greenest" ways to heat & cool your home. A geothermal heat pump taps into the renewable energy source located directly under your lawn. Loop systems installed in the ground transfer heat energy through the summer and winter. This pollution-free energy from the earth stays consistent all year round. Best of all is the significant savings in energy costs (50% to 80% avg. savings) The buyer of this home will reap the cost-saving benefits of this expensive capital investment immediately! * * * * * DOUBLE INSULATED WINDOWS: The windows in the home have been restored, or replaced with double-pane, insulated glass, preventing energy leaks, drafts and adding energy savings. * * * * * * FOAM INSULATION: Additional foam insulation has been added to the home creating an incredible R-19 rating! APPLIANCES: Four-star, energy-saving kitchen appliances * * * STRUCTURED WIRING SYSTEM - integrated "whole-house" data distribution system.
