Step through the iron gate into a lush, tree-shaded front yard and onto a gingerbread-trimmed porch, offering a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city. Inside, the home exudes character with original hardwood floors, intricate woodwork, high ceilings, and period moldings. A blend of newer and leaded glass windows allows natural light to pour in from all directions, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The generous floor plan features a welcoming vestibule, formal living and dining rooms, a half bath tucked beneath the beautifully paneled staircase, and a bright, airy eat-in kitchen. The kitchen showcases timeless white shaker cabinetry, a full wall pantry, a spacious cooking island with a gas range and floating hood, quartz countertops, a deep farmhouse sink, and stainless-steel appliances. Large windows and a glass patio door bathe the kitchen in light from three sides, while the door leads to a wood deck overlooking the expansive, professionally landscaped backyard—perfect for dining, relaxing, or entertaining. At the end of the 5-car driveway sits a two-car stone carriage house with full power and abundant natural light, ideal for parking, a workshop, or a creative space. Access the second floor via front or rear staircases, where you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, a large den that could be transformed into a stunning primary suite, a convenient laundry room, and a full bathroom with an updated shower surround and rainfall shower head. The third floor offers two additional spacious bedrooms, providing ample space for guests, a home office, or hobbies. The full height unfinished basement is ideal for storage and a workshop, and has access to the backyard. This meticulously maintained home offers easy access to Center City by car, train, or bus, combining urban convenience with the tranquility of a private retreat. Nestled between Manayunk's bustling Main Street and Roxborough's wide range of amenities, you'll be within walking distance to shops, dining, gyms, parks, and more.
