4813 Regent St, Philadelphia, PA 19143

Built c. 1892, this Victorian twin on one of University City's nicest blocks has sweet original details in every room. The owners lovingly restored the home throughout and also replaced the furnace; added central air; replaced the roof, most of the windows and front porch; and landscaped the front garden and rear yard. Enter through the foyer into the living room with intricately patterned hardwood floors, floor-to-ceiling windows and a working fireplace. Intact pocket doors open to the dining room with chair rail. A super-cool butler's pantry leads to the large eat-in kitchen, which opens to the paved backyard. The 2nd floor features a large parlor with working fireplace, two good-size bedrooms and a hall bath. The 3rd floor has two more bedrooms and a lovely leaded glass skylight as well as a brand-new four piece bathroom with clawfoot tub! This one-way, one-block long block of Regent St is in the quiet southwest pocket of the neighborhood, just a few blocks from Clark Park and Baltimore Ave businesses and half a block from the trolley, regional rail and dog park.
