Property Description
Rarely does a home offer this combination of thoughtful design, high-end finishes, and unbeatable West Philadelphia location - but 4707 Sansom Street delivers on all fronts. Completely renovated from top to bottom, this stunning four-bedroom, three-bath row home sits in the heart of Walnut Hill, one of Philadelphia's most vibrant and sought-after neighborhoods. Whether you are a buyer seeking the perfect primary residence or an investor looking for a premium asset, this property checks every box. AN ENTERTAINER'S DREAM ON THE MAIN LEVEL Step inside and be immediately drawn into an expansive, open-concept living area that flows effortlessly into a generous dining space - anchored by a stunning exposed brick wall that lends warmth and character unique to Philadelphia beloved row home architecture. The kitchen is not just beautiful; it is genuinely functional, designed with the serious home cook in mind. A large dedicated pantry/coat closet keeps everyday essentials neatly out of sight. Just beyond the kitchen, a bonus BBQ room - outfitted with extra shelving and a cabinet - offers the kind of flex space most homes simply don't have. Step through to your private fenced balcony/porch and you have the perfect stage for summer cookouts, container gardening, or simply unwinding with a glass of wine after a long day. SPACIOUS BEDROOMS AND A PRIMARY SUITE TO LOVE The upper level features two generously sized bedrooms, each with ample closet space, served by a well-appointed shared hall bathroom. A dedicated laundry closet - paired with a separate linen closet - means no hauling laundry up and down stairs. The crown of the home is the primary bedroom suite. Here, a walk-in closet leads directly into a gorgeous, private en-suite bathroom - a true sanctuary. This is the kind of suite that makes mornings feel like a luxury hotel experience. Storage throughout the upper level is plentiful and purposefully placed. VERSATILE LOVER LEVEL AND RARE PRIVATE PARKING The lower level adds remarkable flexibility to this already exceptional home. A fourth bedroom with its own full bathroom is ideal for guests, an au pair suite, or a private home office. The remaining open space is a blank canvas - picture a home gym, a media/gaming lounge, a music studio, or a playroom. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination. A long interior hallway leads to the back of the property, where you will find something truly coveted in this part of the city: your own private garage plus a driveway with space for an additional vehicle. In Walnut Hill, parking like this is a genuine premium. THE WALNUT HILL NEIGHBORHOOD - THE BEST OF WEST PHILLY Walnut Hill sits in the heart of West Philadelphia, bounded by Market Street and Spruce Street between 45th and 52nd Streets - placing you in the northwestern portion of the highly desirable University City District. Tree-lined streets of classic brick row homes with bay windows create a neighborhood aesthetic that is quintessentially Philadelphia, yet the community itself feels fresh, dynamic, and full of energy. The neighborhood is celebrated for its genuine diversity, its tight-knit community, and its remarkable walkability. Bars, coffee shops, restaurants, and parks are all within easy reach, and the SEPTA Market-Frankford Line provides direct, rapid access to Center City and beyond. Both the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University are less than two miles to the east, ensuring consistent demand and a lively neighborhood atmosphere year-round. This is a neighborhood with real history: American Bandstand was first broadcast just a few blocks away at 46th and Market, and legendary singer and activist Paul Robeson called Walnut Hill home. The active Walnut Hill Community Association continues to advocate for neighborhood improvements, including the recently revamped Community Playground at 4700 Sansom practically your front yard. 4707 is more than a home - it is a lifestyle!
