Looking for a home with real character—one that’s move-in ready, thoughtfully updated, and still full of historic charm? This classic Philly rowhome delivers all that and more, at a price that makes homeownership finally feel within reach. A welcoming, fenced-in front yard and covered porch set the tone, leading you into a traditional entryway that opens to a sunlit living room. An original fireplace mantle adds timeless detail, grounding the space with warmth and authenticity. Just beyond, the dining area offers plenty of room for gatherings and everyday life. Toward the rear, the renovated kitchen shines with white shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range. A painted brick mudroom, complete with laundry hook-up, opens to a large, fully fenced backyard—offering rare outdoor space on this nearly 100-foot-deep lot. Downstairs, a freshly cleaned, unfinished basement provides excellent storage or future possibilities. Upstairs, you’ll find a bright rear bedroom overlooking the yard, a stylish hall bath with a walk-in shower, and a middle bedroom that connects to the primary—perfect for a nursery or work-from-home setup. The primary bedroom sits at the front of the house, with two large windows that flood the space with natural light. Original railings and trim add personality throughout. With street parking on both sides and Lancaster Ave just a quick walk away for public transit, convenience is part of the package. If you're finally ready to make the leap into homeownership, this gem is waiting for you.
