Property Description

Welcome to a charming and thoughtfully reimagined 2-bedroom twin in the heart of Roxborough, where classic Philadelphia character meets the comforts of modern living. Tucked along a quiet, one-way block with mature trees and landscaping, this home offers a peaceful retreat just minutes from the growing Ridge Avenue corridor and the restaurants, shops, and everything you love about Main Street Manayunk.

A sweet front porch and classic Tofani front door set the tone. Inside, warm hardwood floors and abundant natural light flow throughout the home. The spacious front living room features a special reading nook with built-in bookshelves—a cozy little corner made for curling up with a good book, surrounded by plants and sunlight. The adjoining dining room leads to a beautifully updated kitchen with corian countertops, a breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, and a new five-burner stove.

Just beyond the kitchen is the jewel of the home: a newly constructed, finished sunroom wrapped in eight windows and crowned with a wainscoted ceiling. Bright and serene, it makes an inspiring home office, creative space, or simply a place to pause and enjoy the view. It opens to a lovingly landscaped backyard oasis, complete with a full shed, gated alley access, and a gorgeous sweet bay magnolia tree.

Downstairs, the finished basement adds even more flexibility, with dedicated laundry and storage, a recently added half bath, and versatile space ready for a home gym, rec room, or additional living area.

Upstairs, two exceptionally spacious and sunny bedrooms offer plenty of room to breathe. The primary bedroom features generous storage and Jack-and-Jill access to a timeless bathroom with classic tile, wainscoting, built-in shelving, and modern fixtures. The front bedroom is equally generous, with windows on three walls filling the room with light.

Thoughtfully converted from three bedrooms to two, the home now offers a more spacious and intuitive layout designed around how people actually live. As a semi-detached twin, it enjoys the light and openness that can be hard to find in the classic Philadelphia rowhome. Efficient radiant heat, a newer boiler, and a mini-split system provide comfortable, efficient climate control year-round.

Warm, bright, private, and wonderfully livable, this is a home with the kind of spaces that invite you to settle in and stay awhile.
