Open House Saturday October 17th from 12-2PM. This is NOT your typical Parkwood home! This 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home has been thoughtfully improved with custom finishes, major upgrades, and details designed to make everyday living easier. Recently painted from top to bottom in a modern, neutral palette, this one is truly move-in ready. Let's start with the kitchen because it deserves the attention. Completely remodeled with custom floor-to-ceiling Century cabinetry, this space is just as functional as it is beautiful. Quartz countertops, a gas cooktop, wall oven and microwave, pantry, under-cabinet lighting, recessed lighting, and an appliance garage with a pull-out drawer and hidden outlet mean everything has its place (and your countertops can actually stay clear!). The oversized peninsula is where this kitchen really comes together. With seating for four, plus the sink and dishwasher overlooking the dining room, it creates a natural gathering place. Pull up a barstool for morning coffee, spread out appetizers when friends are over, or cook dinner without feeling separated from the conversation. This setup is perfect for entertaining and everyday life! The attention to detail continues with engineered hardwood flooring in the living room, kitchen, and two bedrooms, plus original hardwood floors in the primary bedroom. Wainscoting, crown molding, picture frame molding, new interior doors, updated Decora switches, and built-ins inside the coat closet add character at every turn. It's these little details that show how thoughtfully this home was customized, not just to look beautiful, but to make everyday living easier. And the updates go far beyond what you can see! A brand new furnace and central air system were installed in 2026, and the home also features a 200 amp electrical panel, another great bonus for buyers. The full bathroom has been updated, the laundry room revamped, and the washer and dryer replaced in 2023. The basement also features updated flooring, giving you additional finished space to make your own. The attached garage offers an automatic door opener, additional storage, and direct interior access into the basement. Especially convenient when the weather isn't cooperating! Step outside through the sliding glass door, replaced in 2020, onto the Trex deck, also completed in 2020. Built-in lighting along the stairs makes this space just as inviting at night. One of the things the sellers say they'll miss most is sitting out here watching the sunsets. It's been one of their favorite places to unwind! Out front, permanent lighting around the bay window adds another fun touch and makes decorating for the holidays that much easier. Located in the sought-after Parkwood neighborhood of Northeast Philadelphia, you'll enjoy shopping, dining, parks, and everyday conveniences just minutes away, plus easy access to I-95, the PA Turnpike, and nearby SEPTA stations. This home has been in the same family for 33 years, and the pride of ownership shows. Now it's ready for someone new to love it just as much. Fresh paint, modern finishes, major systems already replaced, and custom details throughout! And with the holidays right around the corner, imagine celebrating in your new home or throwing the ultimate New Year's Eve housewarming party! With a kitchen made for entertaining and plenty of space to gather, this home is ready for all the memories you'll make. Just bring your toothbrush, this one is ready to go!

Parkwood, located between Pennypack Park and the Poquessing Creek corridor, is a residential and suburban-feeling Philadelphia neighborhood with curving cul-de-sacs and a strong park-and-trail edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Roosevelt Boulevard and Southampton Road junction, where auto-oriented plazas, diners, and everyday services set a practical, on-the-go rhythm. Brick-and-siding split-levels and row-style twins define many blocks, with driveways, small lawns, and mature street trees shaping the streetscape. Pennypack Park’s trailheads and creekside paths pull daily routines outdoors. For local staples, Maggie’s Waterfront Cafe, the historic Pennypack Park stone bridges, and the nearby Glen Foerd estate anchor a distinctly Northeast Philadelphia sense of place.
