About this home
On a lovely tree-lined block In the Cedar Park neighborhood of University City, this stellar twin is fully updated but retains the classic character and desirable outdoor space you expect in a bright, early 20th century (c. 1910) home.
5 bedrooms and 2 over-sized family rooms; 2 full baths; front garden, covered front porch, lovely rear yard, and a roof deck with open views. Hardwood floors throughout (both original and some new with inlaid details). Modern updated kitchen with island, two updated modern baths, fully rewired with no knob & tube wiring. State of the art Weil McLain hot water boiler. Beautiful woodwork and character.
The overall layout is flexible and generously scaled: a classic 1st floor with a spacious living room, dining room, and bright kitchen; a large family room plus two bedrooms on the 2nd floor; three additional generous bedrooms on the 3rd; and a capacious, sun-filled fourth-floor bonus space—perfect as a guest room, studio, family room, office, or additional lounge—leading out to the expansive roof deck with excellent views. The large, clean, dry basement features laundry, great storage, and solid mechanicals.
This beautiful and bright twin home offers a superb University City location—a short walk to Clark Park and its fabulous Farmers' market, Cedar Park, University City Swim Club, ReAnimator Coffee, Knock Box Café, Mariposa Food Co-op, Bookers, Carbon Copy, Gold Standard, Vietnam Cafe, Vientiane, Loco Pez, Doro Bet, Gojjo, Cleo Bagels, Amsale Café, and all of Baltimore Avenue's Restaurant Row, as well as other restaurants, shops and cafes. Close to HUP, CHOP, Penn, Drexel, Penn Vet, and 13 minutes to Center City by car or bike and plenty of convenient SEPTA options. No surprise that this home has a 92 WalkScore (and a 99 BikeScore!). Awesome home, block, and location....
