Property Description

Built in Germantown during the early 1900s, 5811 McMahon St is a home made of local Wissahickon stone that sits on a plateau overlooking the rolling hills behind Waterview Rec Center. Steps away are the trails of Awbury Arboretum, where the Washington Lane regional train rail offers a lush green train station next to a peaceful pond and stand of redwood sequoia trees. With an abundance of parking along the home's street and new sidewalk squares, homeowners are welcomed by native plant curb appeal as you enter the home. The front door leads to an open floor plan on the first floor with high ceilings and exposed original hardwood beams. Classic beadboard chair rail wraps the cozy living space between the deeply recessed windows. Through the curved arch entryway of the dining room sits the fully restored yet charming kitchen. The kitchen features a statement antique farm sink and a classic floor to ceiling wall tile that was prevalent during the early time period of the house. With the addition of terrazzo floor tile, it has a modern yet timeless look that is easy to keep clean. As you pass the kitchen, the back sunroom has been restored featuring an exposed stone wall and new wooden deck platform for a peaceful workspace overlooking the backyard with its panoramic windows. The back door leads to what makes this house a true gem. The outdoor space has been fully transformed to reintroduce native plant species lining the circular stone layout. Featuring a canopy of trees that filter scattered light and shade, it is a restful oasis to enjoy gathering around a fire with those you care about. Along the side of the house features elevated garden beds lining the property to plant all your favorite seasonal herbs, fruits, vegetables, flowers, and more. As you enter back into the house, every room contains a new ceiling fan and light fixture updated with dimmable switches. The electrical panel and wiring has been fully updated and customized to bring modern living to an older home. The most prominent feature of this home is the brand new, energy efficient high velocity heating and cooling system. The high velocity system webs the whole house in small ducts to utilize the humidity within the space and compress it to warm/cool air as it filters. The home's original staircase is the showstopper of the first floor living area as it leads to the second floor. The sunny and spacious area upstairs features the primary bathroom and 3 bedroom spaces with many windows overlooking the trees and garden areas. In a market full of quick flips, this house has been curated with care, love, and charm, in hopes to connect with a buyer who values and builds off of its history.
