Located in West Philadelphia, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhouse delivers classic Philadelphia character with the updates today's buyers are looking for. Built in 1925 and thoughtfully renovated, the home strikes a balance between timeless appeal and modern comfort that is hard to find at this price point. Inside, an open floor plan connects the living and dining areas with ease, anchored by hardwood floors, windoes and recessed lighting throughout. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, modern countertops that flow into a peninsula island, making it equally suited for quiet mornings and casual entertaining. Upstairs you'll find four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary suite offers a private bath, providing the separation and comfort that makes a home feel like a retreat. The finished basement adds meaningful square footage, whether you need a home office, gym, playroom, or additional storage. Out back, a rear patio with a lovely pergola gives you lovely outdoor space, ideal for gatherings or a quiet evening outside. The exterior is well-maintained with thoughtful lighting and clean sidewalks. High-efficiency appliances and energy-conscious lighting make this home as practical as it is attractive. On-street parking adds everyday convenience, and transit options are within easy reach. Steps from the Baltimore Avenue trolley and a short walk to the 49th Street Regional Rail station on the Media/Wawa Line, getting to Center City and beyond is straightforward without a car. Mariposa Food Co-op, one of West Philadelphia's most beloved community grocers, is nearby on Baltimore Avenue, and Cobbs Creek Park offers miles of trails, sports courts, and green space just around the corner.
