    Welcome to this spacious Newbold home, full of character, high ceilings, and possibilities. This five-bedroom, two-bath property is being sold as-is and offers the perfect canvas for someone ready to bring their vision to life. Step through the vestibule into a large, light-filled living room that flows naturally into a dining area and a generous kitchen. Just beyond the kitchen is a full bathroom and access to a lovely brick-paved backyard surrounded by a wood fence. It’s the kind of outdoor space that’s perfect for relaxing, gardening, or entertaining. Upstairs, the second floor features two generously sized bedrooms and another full bathroom. There’s also space to add a washer and dryer or reimagine the layout to create a primary suite, office, or additional bedroom, offering plenty of flexibility depending on your needs. The third floor offers two more large rooms and an opportunity to take things even further, whether that’s creating another suite, adding a deck, or designing a top-floor retreat. With its size, layout, and location, this home has all the makings of something truly special. Surrounded by neighborhood favorites like Ultimo Coffee, Hardena’s, Second District, South Philly Taproom, and Little Susie’s Pie Shop, you’ll be right in the heart of everything that makes Newbold and Point Breeze such a vibrant place to live. Blocks away from East and West Passyunk Avenue. Steps away from the Broad Street line, 2, 4, and 29 bus routes. Bring your ideas, your plans, and your sense of possibility. This one is ready for its next chapter. Perfect for a Fannie Mae Homestyle or FHA 203K Renovation Loan.
