Description
Set back from West Mt Pleasant Avenue and offering both stellar serenity and privacy, this 6-bedroom (or 5 bedroom plus office); 4.5 bath home with a huge family/great room (large enough for multiple uses); substantial, wooded outdoor space; 2-car parking; huge windows for immense light; ideal layout; and a stunning, crisp, modern farm-house style. This ground-up new construction is designed by the renowned C2 Architecture and developed by award-winning Bancroft Green (both local). With the Philadelphia 10-year TAX ABATEMENT, this new construction is anything but cookie-cutter. Rather it offers the tasteful high-end finishes that you would expect to see in such a brilliantly designed custom home. Spectacular, custom, light-filled spaces throughout, including high ceilings, hardwood floors, large windows, cathedral ceilings, and tasteful, high-end contemporary finishes. Multiple-zone ultra-efficient HVAC is complemented by the tight envelope and elevated R-factor (insulation) for premier energy efficiency. Ample outdoor space, including a walk-out deck off the open kitchen, dining, and living area for perfectly extended indoor-outdoor living and divine entertaining. In addition to the deck, the outdoor spaces include a large fully usable, wooded area to the rear, plus a front yard (and driveway with side-by-side parking plus turnaround) that provides ample privacy and buffer from the street. This home offers flexible space for various needs. For example, the first floor has its own suite, with available connection to the first-floor main living space plus a separate exterior entrance—perfect for intergenerational families, a professional office, a main level primary suite, or a den/office/guest room combo. There is a spectacular 2nd floor primary suite, another full suite in the walk-out lower level (plus the family and great room), and three other bedrooms. As you look through this home with its huge European tilt-n-turn (plus casement functionality) OKNOPLAST® windows, you will not believe you are in the city. Even for West Mt Airy, this lot offers a green and woodsy feel. Other features include the custom steel and wood stairs with floor to ceiling windows. High ceilings throughout, including pitched, 20-foot ceilings, a 2-story atrium, butler pantry, Eucalyptus floors throughout, excellent storage throughout, Custom cabinetry from Studio Cidra (American modern furniture handmade in Philadelphia) and quartz countertops throughout kitchen and all baths, Kitchen-Aid high end appliances (including wine fridge and induction cooktop), and 2-zone high efficiency Bosch heat pumps (20 seer). The feel, layout, light, spaces, and finishes of this home are exquisite. Enjoy the most convenient West Mt Airy location--easily walkable to many restaurants, cafes, retail, parks, shopping, library, and more. 5-minute drive to the Wissahickon Valley and miles of wooded trails. 5-minute walk to the Allens Lane Station on 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). 10-year Tax Abatement.

Climate and Weather
The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
