Welcome to 507 E Murdoch Road! This stunning 1930s Dutch stone colonial, nestled in the coveted “Gowen Estate” section of East Mount Airy, offers the perfect blend of classic architecture and contemporary upgrades. Situated on a picturesque, tree-lined street, this 5-bedroom, 3 full and 2 half-bath home spans over 3,300 square feet across four thoughtfully designed levels. Fully remodeled just six years ago, it has been lovingly upgraded, including a spa pool, a rear deck, plantation shutters, and a finished basement. The front yard includes beautiful paper birch trees, fine shrubbery, and a fence. Step inside to a sunlit living and dining area adorned with coffered ceilings and a stately mantled fireplace. French doors lead you into the inviting sunroom, surrounded by oversized windows that bathe the space in natural light. The chef’s kitchen is a dream—spacious, refined, and perfectly suited for both cooking and entertaining, with easy access to the deck, spa pool, and side yard. On the second floor, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms, a full hall bath, and a luxurious primary en suite. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and a charming hall bathroom, complete with a clawfoot tub. The fully finished basement provides a work-out or family room, a laundry nook, a half bath, ample storage, and its own entrance. The oversized garage accommodates one large car or two smaller ones, with additional parking in the carport under the deck. Beyond the home itself, the location is unbeatable. You’re just moments from the vibrant dining, shopping, and amenities of Mount Airy, Chestnut Hill, Wynmoor & Glenside; plus it's only a 10-minute walk to the Mt. Airy train station for a quick commute to Center City, or to Wm. Gray 30th St Station for Amtrak, and to PHL. This exceptional home is move-in ready. We welcome your interest in seeing it!
