Property Description

This stately West Mt. Airy townhouse, circa 1905, is architecturally significant. Noteworthy as one of the historic “Spite Row” houses, it is located near to Germantown Avenue’s vibrant business district, train station, and access to Fairmont Park. The 2,755 SF 3-story masonry house is a fresh canvass awaiting the new owner’s finishing touches and improvements. Recent capital improvements: new roof & gutters (2026), a new shingled 2-story bay (2026), and newer gas furnace and C/A compressor, have accomplished major steps toward restoration of this vintage premises graced with handsome wood floors, high ceilings, and many original details. An enchanting pathway leads to the house’s yard and welcoming open front porch. The handsome carved wood door opens to the traditional entrance foyer. The living room flows to the middle landing with a fireplace and to the formal dining room with a bay window. The winding staircase and landings are illuminated by the large skylight. The second floor offers two bedrooms and a hall bathroom. The third floor consists of the third bedroom, fourth bedroom (with city-scape view), and second bathroom. The lower-level bonus room (original kitchen) with even-grade daylight entrance faces W. Allen's Lane and adjoins the basement area with ¼ bathroom.
