Property Description

Welcome to 13053 Dorothy Drive, located in the desirable Somerton section of Philadelphia, PA 19116. This beautiful home is truly move-in ready and has been thoughtfully updated throughout. The property features a brand new roof installed in 2025, an updated kitchen with modern finishes, newer windows, and a completely remodeled master bathroom. The driveway and retaining wall have been redone, and a French drain and sump pump were added to ensure a dry basement with no water concerns. The HVAC system, hot water heater, and central air were all replaced in 2021, offering peace of mind for years to come. This home offers three spacious bedrooms, including a main bedroom with a full, newly remodeled bathroom, a second full hallway bathroom upstairs, and a convenient powder room off the living room for guests. The layout is comfortable and inviting, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Outside, you'll find a beautiful backyard with a covered pergola-perfect for relaxing or hosting gatherings. Additional highlights include a garage for storage, a private driveway with ample parking (a rare find in Philadelphia), and a side yard that provides easy access around the property. This home has been meticulously maintained and truly needs nothing except a new owner. Schedule your private showing today or stop by one of our upcoming open houses!
