276 W Haines St, Philadelphia, PA 19144

Offer deadline at 6pm on Monday, Sept 29th. Be your best Germantown self in this charming end-row home, filled with light, character, and the warmth of a vibrant community. Nestled on the beloved 200 block of W Haines Street, this home invites you in with a colorful front garden blooming from spring through fall—featuring roses, lavender, tickseed coneflower, garden phlox, lamb's ear, irises, and more. Water your plants from the handy rain barrel, then relax on the cozy front porch. Step inside to a welcoming open-concept living space that blends historic charm with thoughtful updates. Original hardwood floors, wood trim, and a working fireplace add timeless character, while a newly built-in LP/book shelf and exposed beams offer warmth and style. As an end-unit, the home is flooded with natural light, thanks to 13 energy-efficient Andersen windows (installed in 2014). The eat-in kitchen is roomy, glowing, and features a farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms, a full bath, and a versatile flex space. Previously a middle bedroom, this bright area now serves perfectly as an office, library, den or kids zone. The front primary bedroom is a standout—airy and radiant with vaulted ceilings, multiple skylights, and lofted storage. The bathroom has a cozy cabin feel with shiplap walls and unique built-ins. The finished basement offers even more usable space—ideal for a TV room, playroom, or its original purpose: a recording studio! Also downstairs is separate laundry, utilities (including a powerful on-demand hot water boiler/heater), and a work station. And just wait until you see the backyard. The pergola-covered patio features a built-in fire pit and an arbor draped with concord grapes and kiwi berries. Enjoy homegrown treats from the serviceberry, raspberry, juneberry, a peach tree, and Willamette hops. This is more than just a house—it’s a place to grow, connect, and truly feel at home. Location is walkable to Weaver’s Way Coop, Ultimo Coffee, Chelten Ave commercial corridor, public transportation (Chestnut Hill West and multiple bus routes), and so much more. Easily drivable to all things from Chestnut Hill to East Falls, Mt Airy to Manayunk.
