Great fun: to watch from an upstairs window as the quiet electric commuter train glides by several times a day beyond the rear of the property. The train stops just down the street at the Mount Airy Station on the Chestnut Hill East line to give the owner of 7443 Devon Street a smooth 32 minute ride to Center City Philadelphia. Aside from the ease of public transportation, Devon Street offers a multitude of Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill shops, restaurants, coffee shops and parks within walking or biking distance. Showings start on Saturday, March 13. Quick settlement possible. MORE PHOTOS TO COME! 2021-04-22
