About this home

Welcome to 1040 Byberry Road, an incredible opportunity for investors, contractors, or design-minded buyers looking to build sweat equity in the highly sought-after Somerton section of Northeast Philadelphia. Situated on an expansive, park-like 0.52-acre lot, this unique, expanded Cape Cod home beautifully pairs classic architectural lines with a massive, modern footprint and outdoor potential nearly impossible to find in the 19116 zip code. The heart of this home is the impressive rear addition, featuring a wide-open kitchen and an expansive great room. Flooded with natural light, this continuous layout offers a fantastic flow for seamless entertaining and large family gatherings. Bring your vision and tool belt—the house is being sold as-is and needs some updates and TLC to restore it to its full potential. Outside, the deep, sprawling rear yard offers unparalleled privacy but will require some tree removal and clearing to fully reclaim the grounds. A substantial detached garage anchors the property, perfect for a workshop, vehicle storage, or a hobbyist's retreat. Conveniently located with easy access to regional rail lines, major highways, local shopping, and dining, this property is a prime flip or customizable forever home offering a quiet suburban feel with all the benefits of city living. Schedule your tour today to explore the unmatched land value, functional addition, and rewarding upside this Somerton gem has to offer!

About

Somerton

Somerton, located between Bustleton and Trevose, is a residential and commercial Philadelphia neighborhood with a rail-stop edge and a low-rise, leafy streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Byberry Road and Bustleton Avenue corridor, where strip plazas, diners, and small service storefronts set a steady, everyday rhythm. Brick twins, split-levels, and mid-century ranch homes line curving blocks, with pockets of newer infill near major arterials. Poquessing Creek and nearby greenways shape the area’s quieter borders and walking routes. Community touchstones include the Somerton Tank Farm, the Somerton Branch of the Free Library of Philadelphia, and the Somerton Station area on SEPTA’s West Trenton Line.
