Description

Welcome to this grand Colonial Revival twin in the heart of Cobbs Creek, a now vibrant neighborhood with deep roots dating back to the mid-1600s. Built in 1925 and stunning from every angle, this architecturally classic home offers nearly 3,000 sq ft of thoughtfully redesigned space, maintaining and blending timeless craftsmanship with contemporary upgrades. From the moment you enter, the restored original vestibule greets you with classic tilework, elegant wainscoting, and a beautifully preserved glass-inlay door that speaks to the home’s rich heritage and history. Throughout the home, the original hardwood floors, intricate crown molding, ornate wood trim, original solid-core doors, and the living room’s grand staircase are a nod to the past, while recessed lighting, central air, and ceiling fans provide modern convenience. The expansive living room features a cozy wood-burning fireplace and that signature Philadelphia staircase landing. The formal dining area sits against the backdrop of an open staircase and impressively large, fully reimagined and redesigned kitchen with quartz countertops, center island with seating, ample cabinetry, sleek finishes, and a convenient mudroom that opens to the private rear yard. Upstairs, what was once four bedrooms has been sophisticatedly updated to three, allowing for a spacious primary suite complete with walk-in closet and en-suite bath, and large enough for a sitting area. A charming reminder of the home’s classic layout, the refurbished Jack & Jill bathroom remains between the back two bedrooms with the back staircase accentuating the home’s character, charm, and flow. Downstairs, the fully finished basement feels like its own apartment: a private side entrance, full bathroom, bedroom, wet bar, and open space for entertaining, relaxing, hosting long-term guests, or additional rental income. This is truly a property not to be overlooked. Designed to be “smart home” ready, it is wired with ethernet in every room AND wired for four cameras. All major systems have been replaced. Major upgrades include: brand new 200 amp electric service, new plumbing, new windows, dual-zoned HVAC, attic access via pull-down ladder, and more. This home is just as efficient as it is beautiful! A rare opportunity to own a piece of Philadelphia history tastefully redesigned for today’s modern lifestyle. It’s walking distance to beautiful Cobbs Creek Park, Macho’s Delish Mix, and nearby Septa’s Market-Frankford line and other bus routes! Come experience the warmth, character, and modern comfort of this exceptional Cobbs Creek home.
