A thoughtfully restored late-19th-century Victorian twin, this sun-filled three-story home blends preserved architectural detail with substantial modern upgrades. Southern exposure highlights high ceilings, original plasterwork, crown molding, and beautifully maintained wide-plank pine floors throughout. With five bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, the layout offers flexibility for guests, work-from-home, or multigenerational living. The main level features gracious living and dining spaces, a renovated powder room, and an updated kitchen designed for everyday use and entertaining, with stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, granite counters, and a breakfast bar. Just beyond, a bright sunroom opens to a rebuilt composite deck and lanai overlooking a deep, fenced yard with a convenient storage shed—an ideal extension of the living space. The second floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms and a fully renovated hall bath, while the third floor is dedicated to a private primary suite with its own sitting area, ample closets, and a spacious ensuite bath. A full unfinished basement provides laundry, utilities, workspace, and storage. Behind the scenes, this home has seen exceptional investment in infrastructure and longevity. Major upgrades include fully replaced electrical, plumbing, sewer and water lines, two brand-new HVAC systems with a dedicated third-floor unit, rebuilt roof elements, reinforced basement structure, and owned solar panels that exceed annual electric usage. A private driveway accommodating multiple cars adds rare convenience. Set on one of the neighborhood’s most cherished blocks, Winona Street is known for its strong sense of community, tree-lined beauty, and neighbors who genuinely know one another. With easy access to transit, local cafés, and the Wissahickon, this location offers both connection and calm—making this home as special outside as it is within.
