The home features soaring ceilings and original pine flooring that has been brought back to life, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the main level. Large, light-filled rooms—including a separate formal dining room—showcase the generous scale typical of this historic neighborhood.

Hand painted Portuguese tile is featured behind the gas range, blending artistic tradition with modern durability. Whether you're hosting large gatherings or enjoying a quiet morning coffee on the built in seating area, the kitchen accomodates all your needs. Off the kitchen you will find a newly added deck with generous seating for outdoor entertaining or just relaxing. Nestled in the vibrant University City area, this property is just blocks from the Kingsessing Recreation Center—currently undergoing a multi-million dollar transformation—and the eclectic shops and restaurants along Baltimore Avenue.
