About 135 W Upsal St

Prepare to be charmed by this classic, spacious West Mt. Airy stone twin, featuring an expansive fenced-in grassy backyard and detached 2-car garage with outlet for electric vehicle charging. This spacious home was gutted and fully renovated in 2019. Many original details compliment a blend of true character and great modern amenities. Enter through your front wrap-around porch into the foyer which leads to the elegant, open concept floor plan with soaring ceilings. The original fireplace and mantle are the showpieces of the living room. The kitchen is a true chef’s kitchen with plenty of countertop space and storage (two pantries!). Behind the kitchen is a mudroom with a powder room, and leads out to the backyard and garage which is accessed via Weaver St. Back inside, walk up the grand staircase to the second level where you’ll find the master suite, laundry area, a hall bath, and second bedroom. The second bedroom is currently used as an office and features beautiful millwork, pocket doors and a balcony overlooking the backyard. The primary suite has a walk-in/walk-thru closet leading to the large, bright spa-like bathroom with separate shower and soaking tub. The third level is complete with a full hall bath and three bedrooms, one of which has an adorable loft area. There is also walk-up access to the unfinished attic, perfect for storage. The full unfinished basement has Bilco doors leading to the side yard, and has great ceiling height making it perfect for finishing. Six years remaining on tax abatement. This home is conveniently located 0.3 miles from the Upsal Septa Station, a 3-minute drive to the Weavers Way Coop, and just minutes from various entry points of the Wissahickon/Forbidden Drive. Move in just in time to plant your spring bulbs and spend the summer in your own private oasis! Showings start Friday, January 3, 2025
