Property Description

Nestled in the heart of West Mount Airy, this fabulous Brick Victorian Single exudes charm and character at every turn. Set on an extra-large fenced-in lot, just over a quarter acre of land, this home boasts a highly sought-after location steps from Weaver’s Way Co-op, the High Point Café, and one block from Carpenters Woods.

As you approach, you're greeted by scalloped wood shingles under the roofline, a hallmark of the Victorian era, and a large sunroom/enclosed porch at the front of the home, offering a peaceful retreat before entering the main living area. Inside, the charm continues with wood floors throughout and custom Queen Ann style replacement windows that flood the home with natural light.

The main level features a charming entry hall with built-ins and a window seat, setting the tone for the elegance found throughout. The living and dining rooms are expansive, connected by a large doorway, each showcasing a brick fireplace with beautiful millwork and mantles. Large bay windows with southern exposure add to the allure of these rooms, providing ample natural light. The living room fireplace features a convenient gas insert, while the dining room fireplace is currently decorative.

The updated kitchen boasts a peninsula, quartz counters, stainless appliances, gas range, and tile backsplash, perfect for the home chef. A butler’s pantry connects the kitchen with the dining room, offering additional counter and storage space. Behind the kitchen, a large mudroom provides space for laundry, a first-floor half bath, and access to the deck, rear yard, and driveway.

Upstairs, the second floor offers two bedrooms plus two bonus rooms, ideal for office space or sitting rooms. A hall bathroom with a soaking tub and classic subway tile completes this level. An additional rear stairway provides easy access to the kitchen.

The third-floor houses two more bedrooms and a recently renovated hall bath with a stall shower and beadboard wainscoting.

Outside, a large rear composite deck provides the perfect spot for outdoor entertaining. A detached oversized garage adds convenience and storage space.

With 2712 interior square feet of living space, this home offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern amenities. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of West Mount Airy history!
