About this home
Sun-filled Kingsessing Victorian-style rowhome with open front exposure, covered porch, and flexible lower level.
Set in a peaceful residential setting, this move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers a comfortable, practical layout for everyday living. The open front exposure brings in excellent natural light and a more spacious streetscape feel, while the covered front porch functions as an outdoor living room—perfect for morning coffee, evening unwinding, or seasonal décor.
Inside, the main level flows naturally from a generous living room into a dedicated dining room, creating an easy setting for weeknight dinners and weekend gatherings. The upgraded kitchen features soft-close cabinetry, modern appliances, and electric cooking, giving you a functional workspace for everyday meals and larger entertaining.
Upstairs, three well-sized bedrooms and a full bath with glass shower enclosure and skylight provide a bright, comfortable retreat. The layout offers practical bedroom spacing and privacy across the upper level, ideal for separating sleep, work, and relaxation zones.
The full basement adds valuable versatility with an existing bathroom, laundry area, ample storage, and direct walkout access to the backyard—well positioned for future expansion into a family room, guest space, home office, or workshop.
Outside, the finished concrete backyard delivers low-maintenance outdoor living, with room for grilling, container gardening, pets, or a simple lounge setup.
This Kingsessing location offers excellent neighborhood convenience with easy access to Bartram’s Garden, Cobbs Creek Park, Kingsessing Recreation Center, local shops and restaurants, SEPTA trolley and bus lines, University City, Center City, and major commuter routes. Showings available—schedule your tour today.
