About This Home
Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac in Roxborough, 217 Overbrook Road is a charming townhouse with fantastic curb appeal, featuring a welcoming front walkway and freshly painted brick façade. Thoughtfully maintained and updated, this home offers two bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, a fully finished basement, and valuable recent upgrades including a resealed roof October 2025, new windows installed in 2023, and newer appliances. Step inside to a bright, inviting main level where the living room and open-concept kitchen flow together across rich dark hardwood floors. The kitchen features crisp white cabinetry and newer stainless steel appliances. Just off the kitchen, a spacious deck provides the ideal space for al fresco meals or relaxing outdoors.

The original dark hardwood floors continue throughout, beautifully balancing the home’s neutral color palette. A modern full bathroom completes this level, featuring bright white tile in the shower-tub combo and a vanity with storage.
