Welcome to a beautiful, well loved, twin home in East Mt Airy. 226 East Durham Street sits in the center of a family-oriented block, of a well-established neighborhood. This home welcomes you with its beautiful gardens, offering new growth and an abundance of color during each season. The large covered porch provides a wonderful outdoor living space for relaxing spring nights and cool summer mornings. As you enter the home you are immediately welcomed into a well maintained house built in the early 1900s. This home is full of old Mt Airy charm from its original refurbished hardwood floors to high ceilings, large pocket door and original mantels, built-in cabinet and sun-filled window seat with several leaded glass windows throughout the first floor. This home is complete with a renovated kitchen including stainless steel appliances, loads of cabinetry and a large pantry. The kitchen also offers access to the fenced backyard, a full bathroom, and the unfinished basement. The exterior stone has been re-pointed, flagstone ledger added to shed rain water and concrete walkways replaced. Venture upstairs to discover 4 bedrooms and a 2nd full bathroom just ready for the next family to fill its walls with love and laughter. Custom murals adorn the Back rooms. The roof is new (2016), the windows have been replaced, the water heater was recently upgraded, and the gas house heater has been serviced annually. This peace of mind will allow you to explore the beauty that surrounds you. Take the train (at the bottom of the block) to center city or stay local to enjoy all Northwest Philly has to offer. Shopping, dining, and many wellness options are all within walking distance. Spend your free time exploring the 50+ miles of trails through our park systems where you can enjoy walking, hiking, cycling, running, climbing, boating, and even horseback riding. This section of East Mt Airy is welcoming, diverse, safe, and is a great place to call home.
