Are you yearning for an older house that has character, charm and is well built? Or maybe you want a house with central air, a granite kitchen and a gas fireplace. Who said you have to pick one or the other? Heres a house that just might be what you are looking for. This single beauty in East Mt. Airy was built in 1925 when houses were built to last. It has the architecture and details of an older house it even has a vestibule and it has been updated and lovingly cared for by its current owners. Located on a street where all the houses show the grandeur of Mt. Airy, there are many mature trees, shrubs and plantings, so the drive home for you will be quite pleasant, to say the least. This one is on a quarter of an acre, and is totally fenced in. As you enter through the new door, and pass through the welcome of the vestibule, you will enter the living room, filled with lots of natural light, that is currently being used as an entry sitting room, with a closet. The adjacent dining room has a second closet as well as French doors to the outside deck. Past the half wall is a kitchen with granite counters, recessed lighting, new refrigerator, new microwave and newer Bosch dishwasher and tile floor. At the back of the kitchen is a mudroom with door to the private back yard. The family room on this main level boasts a gas fireplace with hearth, recessed lighting, a built-in bookcase, and a turned staircase that leads to the second floor with built-ins on the stairway, three bedrooms and two full, tiled bathrooms with newer fixtures. There are Pergo upgraded laminate flooring throughout the house in addition to newer replacement windows and freshly painted rooms. The lower level is finished with extra lighting, loads of storage and a separate room for laundry. In addition to the deck and fenced-in back yard, there is a built-in firepit for your outside enjoyment. For a great combination house to check off all the boxes, come see this one at a private showing today.
