Property Description
Welcome to this exquisite 1,400 sq ft twin home nestled in highly desirable University City. Located on a quiet street, this gem perfectly balances peaceful living, urban convenience, and classic charm. The home's inviting open porch overlooks a lush front lawn with a spectacular floral garden featuring a variety of blooms between spring and summer. The expansive backyard with custom fencing provides outdoor living space for gardening, entertaining, or relaxing. Step inside to appreciate the straight-through design featuring mostly original pine "softwood" floors that still hold timeless beauty and classic architectural details, including stunning arches that add character and charm.
Entertain with a spacious living room that flows into a large formal dining room, showcasing the home's elegant layout, perfect for gatherings. The large eat-in kitchen offers abundant space for culinary creativity and family meals, with a convenient laundry room and half bath located in the shed.
Upstairs, three large, bright bedrooms provide comfortable retreats. The bathroom offers an original clawfoot tub and additional upgrades, including new ceramic tile floors.
Modern upgrades that ensure comfort and safety include: a newer roof with a warranty, a newer HVAC system, an updated electrical system, hard-wired smoke detector system, recessed lighting, and basement protection with a French drain and sump pump.
This home sits on a convenient two-way, quiet street in a vibrant neighborhood just steps from trendy restaurants like Bookers, Mariposa - a popular food co-op, exciting activities like the Baltimore Ave. Stroll and West Philly PorchFest. It may be cool to host a show on your new porch. Also close by are beautiful green spaces like Clark Park and Cedar Park which also host live music, outdoor movies, farmer's markets. Enjoy exceptional access to Philadelphia International Airport, prestigious universities, quality schools, and diverse shopping options. Almost forgot to mention that property has RM1 zoning which is good for multi-family conversion. Owner is a PA Licensee; Agent is related to owner.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to own in one of Philadelphia's highly walkable, bike-able and most coveted neighborhoods!
**BONUS**: Seller is offering a one-year home warranty of the buyer's choice for added peace of mind!
