514 E Sedgwick Street

East Mount Airy, Φιλαδέλφεια, PA 19119

A stunning example of builder Ashton Tourison's vision for the Sedgwick Farms community of East Mt. Airy, 514 E. Sedgwick stands graciously on 1.44 acres of private grounds. Built in 1910, the first of its two owners was Francis Taylor, who owned a coal mining company. The property changed hands in 1977 and has remained in the Price family since. Colonial Revival in style, this home invites you in under the canopy of a broad front porch to its equally expansive center hall. Pocket doors on the left and right define the main living and dining rooms which are both grand, with fireplaces, beautiful dark hardwood floors, and distinctive crown moldings. Accessible through the butler's pantry, the kitchen is completely vintage and features a very unique stove/oven that is still in use. Beyond the first floor staircase is an original den with ornate dark wood accents and Mercer-tiled fireplace. This room leads to a beautiful and unique circular solarium with a fountain (this rear area of the first floor has been in use as a doctor's office since the 70's). At the mid-second floor landing of the staircase is an elegant and rarely offered seating area with fireplace, perfect for enjoying the morning sun or winter fire. The second floor houses five bedrooms and three full baths that can be used individually or in combination as suites. Currently configured as an in-law suite, the third floor has three bedrooms, two baths, and a kitchenette. The expansive grounds are home to an in-ground pool, gardens, mature trees, and specimen plantings creating an oasis in the city. A large 3-bay garage/carriage house includes a second floor with nicely appointed, one-plus bedroom apartment. Located in short walking distance to both train and bus service, local restaurants and shops of Mt. Airy and Chestnut Hill, this home offers an amazing canvas for its next owner's vision.
