Set on Gowen Circle, a warm and welcoming pocket of Mount Airy known for its strong sense of community, the kind of place where neighbors wave from their porches and kids run, jump, and play! The first thing you notice as you pull up to the circle, are the mature trees and native plants and flowers that greet you. You step into 44 W Gowen Avenue through an arched doorway into a foyer with a coat closet, a gracious first impression and a practical spot to unpack the day. This home has been meticulously maintained and has tons of character, like 9ft ceilings, original hardwood floors, and woodwork.
From there, the first floor opens up with windows on every side and natural light pouring in, so you feel like you’re perched in the treetops. The fireplace is the center point of the spacious living room. On the other side of the foyer are the dining room and a tidy galley kitchen that opens onto a brand new deck, perfect for morning coffee and summer dinners.
Upstairs, four nicely sized bedrooms open off a main hall and share a full bath. The main hall is host to two large closets for extra storage. The lower level of the home is the partially finished basement, a flexible bonus space ideal as a playroom or teen hangout. It also holds a powder room, the laundry, and the garage. There is a small fenced rear yard and driveway parking as well.
The location is easy to love and convenient to so much. You can walk to both the Chestnut Hill West(High Point Cafe) and Chestnut Hill East regional rail lines. Also walkable to the shops and restaurants of both Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill, and the miles of trails at the Wissahickon Valley Park. A well-loved home in one of Mount Airy’s most community-minded pockets, ready for its next chapter.
