Welcome to 4931 Pine Street, a well-maintained stone end-of-row townhome in the Garden Court neighborhood of University City, a neighborhood listed on the National Register of Historic Places. With a southeast exposure and replacement windows throughout, this four-bedroom, three-and-two-half-bath home is filled with light from top to bottom, and it is clearly loved. A front garden and sitting area set the tone for the home’s excellent curb appeal. An enclosed front porch entry opens to the main level, where original hardwood floors and high ceilings carry through a traditional layout. The living room centers on an ornate decorative fireplace with a marble surround, intricate mantle, and crown molding. A sitting room, a well-placed powder room under the stairs, and a formal dining room complete the front of the home. A window from the dining room opens to the eat-in kitchen, which has a breakfast nook and access to a spacious elevated back porch over the driveway, with room for planters and outdoor living. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms share two full baths. The front bath offers both a tub and a stall shower, and a second full bath sits beside the smaller second bedroom. A skylight brightens the top of the stairs, and the front bedroom has access to the roof above the front porch, where a future owner might explore adding decking and a railing for more outdoor space. The finished lower level is a standout. Because it sits at grade to the east and rear, it has its own level walkout entrance from St. Bernard Street. At the back, a living area with a kitchenette sits beside that private entrance. A bedroom with an ensuite bath and stall shower, an additional half bath, a sitting room beneath the front porch, a laundry area, and a utility area with a privacy screen complete the level. A spiral staircase connects to the front porch entry, and a second stairway rises to the dining room. It’s a flexible layout for guests, a home office, or extended stays. Tree-lined streets, close proximity to SEPTA’s Market-Frankford Line, the T2 Trolley, and local bus routes, and generous storage throughout round out the offering. Schedule your showing today.
