1120 S Wilton St Philadelphia, PA 19143

This charming Kingsessing twin welcomes you with a sweet front garden, where a rose bush and young magnolia tree frame the covered front porch- the perfect place to unwind and wave to neighbors. Step inside through a wide-panel glass front door into a vestibule lined with original dark oak woodwork and colorful penny tile underfoot. Inside, the living room features richly grained walnut inlay floors and recessed lighting, leading to a separate dining room brightened by side-facing windows. The kitchen is ready for action with a unique poured cement and butcher block counter, sturdy painted original pine floors, a dishwasher, and a beautifully refurbished vintage Chambers stove from the 1950s- a centerpiece full of character and function. Upstairs, the hallway continues the walnut inlay floors, while the three bedrooms are anchored by original pine. The primary bedroom offers two deep closets and a wide bay window overlooking the front garden and leafy street. The rear bedroom is filled with natural light from both side and back windows, creating an airy, welcoming feel. Two full bathrooms include a standout oversized bath with a glass-enclosed shower, a restored industrial-style shop sink, and laundry tucked discreetly in the corner- a practical yet stylish layout. The second full bath adds flexibility for daily living- no waiting in line when nature comes calling. Major system updates were completed in 2015, including the water heater, HVAC (for heating and cooling), and the main electric service panel. The unfinished basement, accessible from the backyard, has a strong history of staying dry and has served as a beloved woodworking workshop and storage area. This lovely home sits on a treasured tree-lined block, shaded by mature Japanese elms- an inviting spot just a short walk from the shops, restaurants, and vibrant atmosphere of Baltimore Avenue, as well as Clark Park's weekend farmers market. Offering a wonderful blend of original character, thoughtful updates, and inviting indoor and outdoor spaces, this home is ready for its next chapter.
