About This Home
Welcome to your West Philly gem!
As you walk up the front steps—past the charming garden—you’ll be greeted by a warm and inviting home with character and space to grow. Step through the front door into a cozy foyer/mudroom, perfect for dropping bags and shoes after a long day.
From there, enter a sun-filled living room featuring two large windows that pour in natural light. It’s the ideal spot to unwind with family, entertain guests, or binge your latest Netflix obsession.
A graceful curved archway leads into the dedicated dining room, creating a seamless flow for everyday meals or dinner parties. The kitchen offers both function and style, with stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, and a modern chevron accent wall that adds a sleek, contemporary touch.
Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a primary with a beautiful alcove—perfect for a cozy bed setup or reading nook. Two full baths complete the upper level. Throughout the home, hardwood floors add warmth and timeless appeal.
The finished, carpeted basement provides additional living space and can easily serve as a fourth bedroom, guest suite, or media room. A second full bathroom with a shower and a spacious laundry room with storage make this level even more functional.
The home also includes fully owned solar panels.
Located just off Lancaster Avenue, you’re minutes from restaurants, shops, and public transportation—making this a prime location for city living with neighborhood charm.
