West Philly Charm Meets Opportunity — 4BR, 2BA, Original Details, Prime Cobbs Creek Location

Bring your vision to this spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath rowhome in the heart of Cobbs Creek — just minutes from University City, Center City, and the green expanse of Cobbs Creek Park. With 1,776 sq ft above grade, high ceilings, and much of the original wood flooring still in place, this home offers a solid canvas for your next chapter.

The first floor features a welcoming covered front porch, an airy living room with vintage millwork, a formal dining space, and a kitchen that leads to a partially finished, walk-out basement with laundry area, full bath, and access to the backyard. Upstairs, you’ll find four bedrooms and another full bath.

Location perks: Walk or bike to Cobbs Creek Park’s trails, playgrounds, and sports fields. Quick access to SEPTA routes, Baltimore Avenue’s shops and cafes, and cultural hotspots like the Philadelphia Zoo, Penn Museum, and 30th Street Station. Nearby universities, hospitals, and major highways make commuting or renting a breeze.

Important: Home is being sold as-is. Seller may not remove contents. Utilities are currently off — please schedule daytime showings or bring a flashlight.

This is your chance to own a piece of classic Philadelphia architecture in a neighborhood with parks, culture, and convenience at your doorstep.
