Listed by Key Legacy Realty
Located on a picturesque tree-lined corner in Northwest Philadelphia, this extensively updated home offers a very flexible layout, 2-car off-street parking, and thoughtful improvements throughout. Currently configured with two distinct living spaces and a partially finished lower level, the property offers a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, with each of the two main living levels featuring 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, its own kitchen, and comfortable living space, while the lower level includes an additional full bathroom. Both main levels offer functional, well-proportioned layouts that nicely separate the living areas from the bedrooms. Hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, central air, generous closet space, and great natural light carry throughout. The updated kitchens feature upgraded countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of cabinet space. The tiled full bathrooms include tub showers, and all four bedrooms are nicely sized with dedicated closet space. The lower level adds even more flexibility to the home. Already partially finished and served by its own dedicated HVAC system, there is plenty of room for storage along with the opportunity to further enhance the space for a home office, fitness area, hobby space, or other use. The laundry room is also located on this level and includes a newer Speed Queen washer. Significant improvements have been made to the property's major systems, including a complete electrical rewire, three electrical panels—including a separate panel for each main living level plus a house panel—two hot water heaters, and three HVAC systems. Each of the two main living levels has its own heating and cooling system, while a third system serves the lower level. Outside, rear off-street parking can accommodate 2 vehicles and includes an EV charging outlet. The location offers convenient access to everything Northwest Philadelphia has to offer. Stenton Station on SEPTA's Chestnut Hill East Line is just a few blocks away, providing easy rail access into Center City, while nearby shopping includes Target, Home Depot, and other everyday conveniences. The shops, restaurants, and attractions of Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill are also within easy reach. The property's existing configuration creates a unique opportunity for buyers looking for flexibility and separate living areas within one home. Please note: The property is currently configured as two separate living spaces; however, the City of Philadelphia recognizes the property as a single-family dwelling. Buyer is responsible for conducting their own due diligence regarding zoning, permits, occupancy, and intended use. Please see Agent Remarks for additional information. Be sure to request the Floor Plan.
