Extremely rare opportunity on the quiet loop block of Arbutus-- A perfect West Mt. Airy location. Offers a 3-bedroom; 2.5-bath home with a spacious 2nd floor family room; a large, bright sunroom; and a pool on 0.28 acres. Attached Garage for one car plus a driveway for Multi-Car PARKING. Also a large, dry basement with excellent ceiling height-- ideal for re-finishing (also with an additional 1/2 bath that is not included in the bath count above).
Just three blocks to the Wissahickon trails, Carpenter Woods, and Mt. Airy Village—an A+ location.
This home has a new 50-year asphalt shingle roof (Russell Roofing installed in September 2023 with full warranty) and newer 2-zone HVAC system (April 2019 with warranty through 4/2029). Other than these systems, the home and pool need significant upgrading and would be a perfect candidate for a renovation and addition. The acreage is large enough to build a spacious addition (or a larger new construction home) by right. 605 Arbutus offers superb flexibility for renovation or new construction. Enjoy peaceful street presence while remaining moments from nature, everyday conveniences, and excellent transit options.
Also, for the first time ever available. The last lot of its kind in a most premium West Mt Airy location-- an additional contiguous 0.7 acre lot fronting Westview (802 Westview) is available separately, allowing a buyer to assemble a truly exceptional parcel spanning from Arbutus to Westview. $1,600,000 for the 802 Westview lot and $2,425,000 for the combined parcels. Enjoy an expansive footprint in one of West Mt. Airy’s most coveted pockets. Note—RSD-1 zoning. Contact agent for more information.
