Architectual Masterpiece in West Mount Airy

Single Family Home $825,000

  This uniquely American mid-century modernist masterpiece was designed by noted Philadelphia architect Harry Sternfeld.  Influenced by both art-deco and the style of Frank Lloyd Wright, this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home brings the outdoors inside and is nestled on nearly 3/4 of an acre. Walking into the foyer, you are greeted by a view of the Sternfeld signature East facing "wall of windows" which extends from the living room through the dining room.  Immediately to the right, you will find a private and conveniently located space for a professional office and a first floor powder room. Continuing into the living room, you will be amazed by the natural light and immaculate hardwood floors and paneled walls that are found throughout the home.  The wood burning fireplace set in a stone accent wall is a unique focal point utilizing more elements of nature. The dining room is large enough for hosting events and continues through to the eat-in kitchen.  Prepare chef quality meals in the top of the line kitchen including a gas Viking range.  Beyond the kitchen you will find a large family / game room with another fireplace perfect for hosting more casual get-togethers.  Upstairs you will find a large main bedroom with an en suite bath featuring soaking tub and separate shower.  Three large sized bedrooms bathed in light, another full bath done in delightful black and white tile, ample storage space, and a washer / dryer complete the second story. Outside you will find a large flagstone patio, accessible from the dining room, a two car garage and room to easily park 3 additional cars.  The expansive back yard encourages outdoor living in the Wissahickon Woods.  Conveniently located in desirable West Mt. Airy, this architecturally significant home in an unparalleled location won't last long.  Make your appointment today!
