Property Description

135 West Mount Pleasant Avenue is a detached single-family home perched high above and approximately 50 feet back from the road, this detached West Mount Airy home offers a rare combination of superb privacy, significant character, tasteful renovation and modern amenities, and expansive spaces, ample natural light, and exceptional outdoor space. Ample street parking is available right on the block or just around the corner on Mower. With 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a huge rear yard, this home provides among the finest outdoor space you will find in a city home. Raised well above the street and tucked back behind mature trees and landscaping, the setting feels serene and secluded while still being in a desirable, highly walkable location. Gorgeous character and stunning light throughout, with four exposures and a remarkable mix of original and updated details. Original random-width hardwood floors; exposed brick, beams, and ductwork; original doors with extensive detail, and an eclectic mix of beautiful old-world windows create a warm and distinctive feel. High-quality wood replacement windows on the front of the home add comfort, supreme quiet, and energy efficiency, all while maintaining the home's overall charm. As you approach 135 W Mt Pleasant, a winding path takes you past mature trees and greenery to the tucked-away front door. This charming plot feels quaint, private, and offers an overall fairy tale quality. The combination of being set approximately 50 feet back from and elevated above the street level creates a wonderful sense of warmth, quiet, shade, and light. The home's outdoor space is exceptional. In addition to the front yard hidden behind the trees, there is a spacious and private side yard, a covered porch off the living and dining room (behind your privacy fence), and a spectacularly spacious private grass yard in the rear. Inside, the home is the perfect complement of eclectic character, original old-world detail, renovated kitchens and baths, and updated systems. As you walk through the front door, you may notice the birds chirping from the front, side, and rear yards. The open first floor has stunning light and character—highlighted by the tastefully eclectic high-end kitchen and glass leading to the huge rear yard. The second floor continues the home's warmth and character, with high ceilings and original random-width pine floors throughout. This level includes three spacious bedrooms, a full bath, excellent closet space, and convenient upstairs laundry. The third floor is dedicated to the full-floor primary suite, offering privacy, volume, and beautiful natural light. The primary bedroom features high cathedral ceilings, original exposed beams, a skylight, four windows across three exposures, original random-width pine floors, and a walk-in closet. The full basement includes storage and mechanicals. Systems include two-zone high-efficiency heat and Central Air, a tankless water heater, 200-amp electric service, and updated/rewired electric. Enjoy the most convenient West Mt Airy location--easily walkable to many restaurants, cafes, retail, parks, shopping, library, the Wissahickon trails and more. Short drive to more of the Wissahickon Valley and miles of wooded trails. Weavers Way Coop and Mt Airy Village. Mt Airy Coffee! 5-minute walk to the SEPTA regional rail. And, of course, a quick ride to Chestnut Hill, Center City, Manayunk, and the Main Line. Live in one of Philly's most desirable and historic neighborhoods. Houston School Catchment (easy walk).
