About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to 1740 N 61st Street—a just-completed gut renovation that blends timeless character with modern luxury in the heart of Overbrook. This 4-bedroom, 3-bath home has been reimagined with remarkable attention to detail, featuring just about everything brand new: electrical, plumbing, HVAC, windows, roof, and finishes—done right and done stylishly.
The main level offers a spacious living room with an original decorative fireplace, flowing into a striking dining area and designer kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, sleek cabinetry, and elegant finishes—perfect for both entertaining and everyday life.
Upstairs features three bedrooms and two full baths, including a bright, airy primary suite. The fully finished basement adds a fourth bedroom, a third full bath, and flexible space for a home office, gym, or guest suite—with a convenient laundry hookup.
With central air, efficient systems, and clean modern design, this move-in-ready home sits steps from Morris Park, public transit, and everything Overbrook has to offer.
