Welcome to 112 W Upsal Street, a remarkable 1916 Center Hall Victorian-inspired estate that delivers the rare gift of suburban life in the city where the proximity can only be offered from West Mount Airy —a short 15-minute commute to Center Cityor instead take a short walk to the train station, walkable to Germantown Avenue—proximity to a true nature preserve escape at Wissahickon Park and close to the region’s premier private schools, including Penn Charter, Germantown Friends School, & Springside Chestnut Hill Academy. Enjoy a lifestyle designed for gatherings and daily escape, with plenty of parking, abundant rooms for dedicated uses such as a home office, gym, or business space, plus a private owner’s retreat; outside, a gardener’s paradise unfolds with apple, pear, peach, fig, cherry, and plum trees alongside blackberry, blueberry, strawberry, and herb gardens, complemented by a solarium perfect for off-season growing and expansive outdoor entertaining spaces. Why live in the suburbs if you can have it all here? Why spend over 2-3 million in the Mainline if you can have it all at a fraction of the cost? Priced to be the best value on the market, one of the lowest-priced per square foot options available in NW Philadelphia!ENTRANCE AND GRAND HALLWAY: Step through the grand original entry into an impressive center hall where refinished original hardwood floors, slate accents, soaring ceilings, and stunning period craftsmanship immediately set the tone. SALOON / BAR AREA: A fully equipped saloon with a wine fridge, beer cooler, sink, and dishwasher creates the perfect entertaining space. FORMAL DINING ROOM: The elegant formal dining room showcases original built-ins, a fireplace, and inviting gathering areas designed for memorable occasions. UPDATED EAT-IN KITCHEN & FAMILY ROOM: At the center of the home is the beautifully updated eat-in kitchen featuring a dual-faucet farmhouse sink, tiled backsplash, stainless-steel dishwasher, gas range with double oven, oversized commercial-grade refrigerator/freezer, and built-in farm table. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the warm and inviting family room with coffered ceilings, original woodwork, and a gas fireplace. IN-LAW SUITE: Just beyond is a private in-law suite with exterior access, complete with a mini kitchen, full bath, laundry hook-up, and flexible living and sleeping quarters—ideal for guests, multigenerational living, nanny or income potential. 2nd Level BEDROOMS: The upper levels continue to impress with five spacious second-floor bedrooms, including three ensuite layouts, multiple fireplaces, renovated baths, and a conveniently located laundry room. 3rd FLOOR: The third floor serves as a luxurious private retreat, featuring a stunning primary suite with vaulted ceilings, an expansive custom walk-in closet, a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a wet sauna, and an oversized walk-in shower. An additional bedroom currently serves as a home office, offering flexibility for evolving needs.Modern improvements—including a newer roof, split-zone HVAC, PEX plumbing, updated electrical, newer wood double-pane windows, a Nuvo 5-zone audio system, and a waterproofed basement—provide peace of mind while preserving the home's historic integrity. An extended driveway offers generous off-street parking, with space for a future carriage house or garage.
