This character-filled 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath twin in Manayunk is proof that some homes simply age better than others. Brimming with original architectural details—tall baseboards, beautifully preserved unpainted woodwork, antique light fixtures, and even a charming double staircase—this home offers the kind of craftsmanship that’s hard to find today.

Natural light pours in from the east, south, and west, illuminating spacious rooms with original hardwood floors throughout. The welcoming enclosed front porch leads into a generous living room, followed by a dining area with a convenient pantry and powder room nearby. The fully renovated, sunny eat-in kitchen opens directly to the backyard—perfect for keeping an eye on the grill, the garden, or both. The kitchen has 2 sinks and an island (both great for parties) and was renovated with top of the line appliances.

The classic front and back staircases lead upstairs to three comfortable bedrooms and a beautifully renovated bathroom with a walk-in shower. One more flight up reveals a bright fourth bedroom with gleaming hardwood floors—ideal as a guest room, office, gym or creative retreat.

Gardeners and dog owners will love the backyard. The fully fenced-in backyard features a deck, a slate patio for outdoor dining tucked within the garden, and a peaceful pond that adds a touch of tranquility. A side walkway paved with large slate stones provides easy access to the backyard—perfect for bicycles, gardening supplies, or the occasional ambitious plant purchases.

Located just a short walk from Main Street Manayunk’s shops, restaurants, and parks, the home also offers quick access to Center City via Route 76, City Line Avenue, and nearby public transportation.
