6 PELHAM RD Philadelphia, PA 19119

This thoughtfully updated 4 bed, 2.5 bath Wissahickon schist row house in the historic Pelham district of West Mount Airy is move-in ready! The charming front yard with soon-to-bloom hydrangeas and a sapling dogwood tree help showcase the stone exterior, slate roof, and copper downspouts that are classic Philadelphia. The path leads you to the new front door selected to allow for abundant sunlight. The sizable foyer / closed-in front porch provides a welcome buffer from the elements and provides enough room to relax and enjoy a book or as extra storage for outdoor necessities. Once inside the substantially sized living room, youll immediately notice the grand Wissahickon schist fireplace with the new addition of a gas insert for maximum enjoyment. Youll also appreciate the hardwood flooring that continues throughout the home. The entry to the dining area has been widened beyond the traditional doorframe to allow for an easy flow between the rooms but still allows wall space for furniture placement. The recently updated kitchen features gleaming white quartz countertops, white shaker style cabinetry, white subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and a recently added bookshelf facing the dining room. As a bonus, there is a small, pass-through mud room leading to a back patio and then a lower level hardscaped with pavers and surrounded by planting beds. The backyard is enclosed by a privacy fence and is canopied by a Japanese maple. Back inside the home, heading up the staircase to the second floor, youll notice the brand new runner to prevent slips on stairs and the light flowing in from the recent addition of a skylight at the top of the stairwell. The second floor layout includes a three piece bathroom with a tub /shower, two large bedrooms with ample closets and one with a window bench, and finally, a smaller bedroom currently being utilized as a home office. The third floor functions as a primary bedroom suite with another full bathroom and large bedroom with seating area. The basement has been recently finished for use as a rec room and now includes a true half bath, a laundry center, and an unfinished storage area. Full walk out stairs provide easy access to the rear patio. All of the systems in the home, including the windows and roof, date to 2016 with the exception of the new water heater, which was replaced in October of 2021. With the location walking distance to Carpenter Lane train station , a short bike ride to the Wissahickon or Mt. Airy Village, and easy access to Center City, the address cant be beat. This charming home on a tree-lined street in the C.W. Henry catchment is just steps from everything Germantown Avenue has to offer and wont last long.
