Classic Brick Cape Cod • Large Corner Lot • Screened Porch • Walk to SEPTA • 3 Bedrooms • 2 Full Baths Not every first home becomes a forever memory. For these sellers, this one did exactly that. For the current owners, 125 Folcroft Avenue was where they learned that homeownership didn't have to mean endless projects. It meant a solid brick home that was easy to care for, a spacious yard that offered room to relax, and a location that made getting into Philadelphia surprisingly simple. Morning coffee often found its way to the screened porch, while evenings were spent enjoying the privacy created by mature Japanese maples, flowering shrubs, hydrangeas, and the beautiful pink dogwood that returns each season. Inside, the home offers a layout that has adapted to changing needs. The main-level bedroom became a comfortable home office with direct access to the screened porch, while two additional bedrooms upstairs provide separation and privacy. Two full bathrooms, a spacious kitchen, abundant storage, and a partially finished basement provide flexible space for work, hobbies, recreation, or guests. One of the unexpected pleasures of living here is the neighborhood itself. The current bridge closure has greatly reduced through traffic, making the streets noticeably quieter, while the neighborhood's loop design creates a pleasant route for evening strolls, morning walks, or simply enjoying the outdoors close to home. Life here extends well beyond the property. Walk just 0.2 miles to the SEPTA Folcroft Station, 0.5 miles to the Sharon Hill Route 102 trolley, or 0.8 miles to the Glenolden Regional Rail Station for convenient commuting. Bus stops are within 0.1 to 0.2 miles, Wawa is only 0.3 miles away, Folcroft Market is 0.4 miles away, and several restaurants, neighborhood parks, and everyday conveniences are all within about a mile, blending small-town convenience with easy access to Philadelphia. Built in 1946 with the enduring quality of brick construction, this home combines character with practical comforts including central air conditioning, a shared driveway, a low-maintenance exterior, and a generously sized 0.17-acre corner lot. The sellers especially appreciated the dependable systems, generous storage, and the balance of privacy, convenience, and everyday comfort that made this house feel like home. Now it's ready for someone new to write the next chapter.

The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
