About 834 E VERNON RD

Welcome to 834 E. Vernon Road, a spacious corner twin in Philadelphia’s desirable Mount Airy neighborhood—a home that has been lovingly cared for by the same owner for more than 30 years. Throughout that time, the property has been thoughtfully maintained and enhanced with numerous renovations and updates, creating a home filled with warmth, character, and true pride of ownership.

Step through the front door into a welcoming foyer complete with a convenient powder room and coat closet. From there, the home opens to an exceptionally spacious living room featuring a beautiful bay window, abundant natural light, and original hardwood floors. A separate formal dining room with classic chair-rail detailing provides the perfect setting for holiday dinners, entertaining, and everyday gatherings.

The updated eat-in kitchen offers beautiful wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless-steel appliances, a six-burner range, wine cooler, dishwasher, garbage disposal, double ceiling fans, and easy-care flooring. A rear door provides convenient access to the back of the property and garage.

Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, along with original hardwood flooring. The spacious primary suite offers a comfortable sitting area, distinctive architectural ceiling detail, two roomy closets, and a private en-suite bath with a walk-in shower. The additional bedrooms provide tremendous flexibility for family, guests, home offices, a dressing room, or additional sitting space. The hall bathroom features a tub/shower combination and skylight, bringing even more natural light into the home.

The finished walkout lower level significantly expands the home’s usable living space and is ideal for entertaining, recreation, a media room, home gym, or flexible bonus space. It also features an additional powder room, generous storage, and a separate laundry room, with convenient walkout access to both the front and rear of the property.

As a corner property, the home enjoys an abundance of windows and sunlight throughout, along with beautifully maintained landscaping that adds to its curb appeal.

After more than three decades of memories, improvements, celebrations, and careful ownership, 834 E. Vernon Road is ready for its next chapter. With four bedrooms, two full and two half baths, a finished walkout lower level, garage, updated kitchen, original hardwood floors, and generous living spaces, this Mount Airy home offers the character of an established Philadelphia residence with the functionality today's buyers are looking for.
