Property details

About 111 W Gorgas Ln

Welcome to 111 W. Gorgas Lane, a light-filled 4-bed, 2.5-bath brick twin in West Mt. Airy! Completely renovated in 2015, the home has been mostly rebuilt with recently installed systems and a modern, open concept floor plan, while also retaining many of the charming original details. The house has great curb appeal with a lovely covered front porch and a facade mixing elements of both the Georgian and Victorian architectural styles. Upon entering, you'll find a living room with hardwood floors, a decorative fireplace, chair rail molding, and baseboard trim. The dining room and kitchen flow directly from here, both bathed in sunlight thanks to deep window sills that are the perfect spot for a plant lover's ever-growing collection. Beyond this is a large eat-in kitchen with pendant lighting, stainless steel appliances, a 5-burner gas range, black granite countertops, and breakfast bar. Just past the kitchen lies a powder room and large mudroom with rear access to the private fenced-in backyard and patio. The second floor features a large primary bedroom, with a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom with a step-in shower. Down the hall you’ll find another full 3-piece bathroom with a shower tub combo and tiled floor. Next to the bathroom is a large second bedroom with a bay window overlooking the street -- this would also make a fantastic library, office, or workout room! Head up to the third floor and you'll find two additional well-proportioned bedrooms. The fully finished basement provides the perfect place for a family room or play space, as well as a laundry center and room for your storage needs. Central A/C and ceiling fans throughout keep you cool in the summer and offer the possibility of being more energy-efficient. Located on a hidden one-way street, it’s just a short walk to two nearby SEPTA train stations: Carpenter Lane and Richard Allen Lane (with on-site High Point Cafe, a neighborhood favorite for coffee, crepes, and delicious baked goods!). Mt. Airy Breakfast Boutique, Malelani Cafe, Lovett Library, and the shops and restaurants of Germantown Avenue are just blocks away, making this location quite walkable and pedestrian-friendly.
