Listing description

Welcome to 4213 Baltimore Avenue, an 1894 Colonial Revival twin located in the heart of Spruce Hill. Offering six bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and approximately 2,640 square feet of living space, this home retains much of its original architectural character and offers an opportunity for restoration. The property is designated on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places within Southeast Spruce Hill and is also located in the National Register's West Philadelphia Streetcar Suburb Historic District. Original features include Roman brick accents, wood and glass transom doors, and double-hung wood windows. Inside, spacious rooms and original architectural details provide a foundation for renovation. While livable in its current condition, the home requires substantial updating and offers buyers the opportunity to restore its character while incorporating modern improvements. Outdoor space includes a front deck and rear yard. Located within the Penn Alexander School catchment and just steps from Clark Park, the property is close to neighborhood restaurants, cafés, shops, and community amenities. The University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, and University City's major medical centers are nearby, with SEPTA trolley service providing access to Center City. With its historic designation, original features, and generous living space, 4213 Baltimore Avenue presents an opportunity for a buyer looking to renovate a home in one of West Philadelphia's established neighborhoods.
