Property Description
Welcome to this well-maintained end-of-row brick townhouse in the heart of Wissahickon. Built in 1960, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers solid construction, fresh paint, and a clean, move-in-ready feel, with room for light cosmetic updates to truly make it your own. The main living areas are bright and functional, and the full basement provides excellent storage and includes a walkout to the rear yard, offering flexibility for future finishing, workspace, or added living area. A side alleyway adds convenience and accessibility rarely found in similar homes. Located less than a mile from bus routes and commuter rail, this property offers easy access to Center City and surrounding neighborhoods while being tucked into one of Philadelphia's most desirable communities. This home is a great opportunity for a buyer looking to purchase below market and build equity with minor TLC, or for an investor seeking a clean, well-kept property with strong rental demand and upside. Property is being sold as-is.
