Overview

Perched on one of the most desirable blocks in Roxborough, this bright and airy twin enjoys sun on three sides and a location that's hard to beat - just steps from Gorgas Park, the Wissahickon Creek, and Roxborough's growing Ridge Avenue commercial corridor.

Outside, a large landscaped front yard and shared driveway lead to a charming south-facing patio that soaks up sunshine all day. Inside, original hardwood floors, a classic staircase, and a neutral palette give the home a warm, timeless feel.

The kitchen has been updated with new countertops, a brand-new dishwasher, and modern appliances. A cozy breakfast nook sits beneath a large picture window overlooking the backyard, while the adjacent dining area comfortably fits a full-size table for entertaining.

The finished basement offers several above-grade windows for natural light, plus a convenient powder room. Storage, utilities, and laundry line the back hallway, which opens onto a paved parking area with room for three cars - in addition to the one-car garage.

Upstairs, the primary suite occupies the front of the house, capturing the best light with windows on two sides, generous closet space, and an en suite bath with original retro tile and fixtures. Two additional bedrooms sit side by side at the rear, each with its own closet. The hall bath features a large skylight, and the landing retains its original banister along with a linen closet for extra storage.

The spacious backyard includes a storage shed and, with no direct rear neighbor, offers a private, sun-filled retreat.
