About This Home

As of August 2025

If these walls could talk, they'd brag. Welcome to 1724 N. Sumner Ave--where old-world charm meets solid craftsmanship and just the right amount of ''they don't make 'em like this anymore.'' From the moment you step inside, the rich hardwood floors, gorgeous original woodwork, and a grand staircase worthy of a movie scene will have you falling in love. All information is approximate not warranted or guaranteed.The lower level is full of personality--perfect for a cozy family hangout, game room, or your dream speakeasy (just saying). Every corner of this home tells a story, and it's ready for you to write the next chapter.Nestled in the heart of North Scranton, you're minutes from McDade Park, Weston Field, and neighborhood favorites like Manning's Ice Cream and local pizza spots that should have their own fan clubs. Quick access to I-81, shopping, and downtown Scranton make this location both convenient and connected.This home isn't cookie-cutter--and that's the best part. Come see it for yourself and fall in love with a classic that has character (and then some)!
