About This Home
As you arrive at 5940 Tabor Avenue, you’re welcomed by a classic brick façade set behind a white front fence that adds definition and curb appeal. The front patio creates a comfortable outdoor space, ideal for seating, container gardens, or enjoying the neighborhood streetscape before stepping inside. Enter the home into a bright living room featuring hardwood flooring and warm wood finishes that carry throughout the main level. The space flows naturally toward the dining area, highlighted by decorative wall accents, mirrors, and natural light from the front-facing window. An arched brick opening adds architectural character while connecting the living and dining spaces, offering a layout suited for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is equipped with wood cabinetry, gas cooking, and ample counter space. A rear door leads directly to a deck off the kitchen, providing a convenient extension for outdoor dining or morning coffee. The deck features a gazebo, your outdoor escape, serving as a defined and versatile space for relaxation, gatherings, or seasonal enjoyment. Upstairs, the bedrooms feature hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and generous natural light. Each room offers adaptable space for sleeping, office use, or additional storage. The hall bathroom includes updated tilework, a pedestal sink, and a tub/shower combination. The finished lower level expands the living space with a large recreation area suitable for media, hobbies, or gatherings. Additional rooms in the lower level provide flexibility for storage, workspace, or utility use. The property is located near shopping, dining, and services along Adams Avenue, Rising Sun Avenue, and Front Street, with access to local parks and the trail network at Tookany Creek Park. Multiple SEPTA bus routes and proximity to the Olney Transportation Center offer convenient transit options, while nearby major roadways support commuting. The home is also located near Naval Support Activity Philadelphia, an established employment and service center. 5940 Tabor Avenue offers a well-maintained interior, flexible living spaces, and indoor-to-outdoor areas designed for everyday use.
