Welcome to 6838 Walker Street — a well-maintained corner row home located in a quiet Philadelphia neighborhood near Disston Elementary School, The Children’s Place Preschool, and Vogt Park.
This charming home features original hardwood floors, central air and heat (2021), and a finished walk-out basement with a very large laundry room. The windows (top and bottom tilt-in) were replaced in 2019, along with a washer and dryer (2019) that were lightly used by a single occupant. Recent updates include a new water heater (2021), garbage disposal (2023), 100-amp electric panel (Summer 2025), refrigerator (2025), and shingles replaced in 2025 — providing peace of mind for years to come.
Enjoy ample closet space, private parking, a driveway, and a garage, all on a desirable corner lot. Furniture is negotiable.
Move-in ready and lovingly cared for, this home blends comfort, convenience, and thoughtful updates — a great find in one of Northeast Philly’s most peaceful communities.
Open House: Join us on 10/18/2025 from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM to tour the property and experience everything this home has to offer.
