Property Description
Designed by Treat Arnold of Montgomery, Bishop and Arnold, this remarkable wood contemporary built in 1973 sits on 0.69 acres off a leafy cul de sac in one of West Mt. Airy's nicest locations. Overlooking a scenic ravine close to Fairmount Park, this is a very special property. The entry hall with its 20-foot ceiling sets the stage for an open, very sunny living room/dining room/kitchen combination that is flanked by an entire wall of windows specially coated for UV penetration. The kitchen features a cypress ceiling, maple cupboards, double stainless steel sinks, Bosch dishwasher, double oven, and electric stove, while a huge adjacent pantry has walls of cabinets, second dishwasher, and sink. There is even a small greenhouse off the kitchen just waiting to be brought to life. The first floor office with its wall of built-in bookcases is tucked away to the right of the entry hall , while to the left, there are two bedrooms including a master with sliding doors opening onto a patio and a four piece bath that opens to a very large separately heated and air conditioned exercise room (could be home office with separate entrance). Upstairs one finds two full baths a large bedroom and a very large room (presently used as an office) that had been two bedrooms and could easily be converted back if needed. The owners connected to public sewer in 2007, put in a new furnace in 2001, installed a 25-year roof and flashings in 2000, waterproofed the basement in 2004, and restored and relined the chimney in 2009. This is a beautifully sited property, full of exciting spaces and dramatic views. A must-see!
