What's special

Nestled in Newbold, this 3 bedroom home has a classic Philly brick front, but has been completely updated on the inside. Enter into the tiled vestibule (so cute) and hang up your coats and bags before entering the home. Continue into the rest of the first floor and notice wide plank flooring that extends into the kitchen. A curved archway gives a nice feel and slight separation from the living/dining space into the kitchen. The kitchen was fully updated to include granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar plus an abundant amount of storage and countertop space. It’s very large for a 2 story Philly townhome. Out back you will find a perfect little patio. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms and a renovated hall bath. The basement is partially finished, adding additional living space. The washer and dryer are in the rear portion of the basement along with more storage. Newer windows and anew roof (July 2026) add to the value of this home.
