About this home
Improved Price Some homes have a great kitchen. Some have great bones. This one has the yard everyone in Northeast Philly wishes they had — a sprawling, private outdoor space with room to actually live in it, not just look at it. Inside, you've got 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, plus a kitchen done in stainless steel and clean modern finishes. The washer and dryer stay, so you're not budgeting for that on move-in day. But the real story here is downstairs and outside: The basement isn't just "finished" — it has its own private entrance, a full bathroom, and a mini-kitchen setup. That's an in-law suite, a rental-potential space, a home office with total separation from the main house, or just extra square footage that actually earns its keep. The backyard is the kind of space that changes how you use a home. A covered patio and sunroom mean you're not limited to three good-weather months a year. Add a brand-new shed and fresh white PVC fencing, and the whole yard feels finished, private, and low-maintenance. Two dedicated parking spots — no alternate-side scrambling, no circling the block. And for the buyer with vision: original hardwood floors are sitting under the second-floor carpet, waiting to be uncovered. This is a home with layers — space to grow into, flexibility to adapt as your needs change, and an outdoor setup that's genuinely rare for the neighborhood. Home Warranty is included
Pennypack, located between Roosevelt Boulevard and the Pennypack Creek corridor, is a residential and park-oriented Philadelphia neighborhood with wooded trails and mid-century brick rowhomes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bustleton Avenue and Rhawn Street crossroads, where corner delis, bakeries, and long-running takeout counters set a steady, everyday rhythm. Pennypack Park frames the area with creekside paths, footbridges, and broad lawns that shape weekend routines. Housing leans toward tidy twins and rows with small front gardens and rear driveways. The Pennypack Environmental Center adds a nature-and-learning anchor near the trails. A short ride away, the Northeast’s classic dining institutions—Steve’s Prince of Steaks and the Dining Car—round out the local circuit.

The RSA, Residential Single-Family Attached districts are primarily intended to accommodate attached and semi-detached houses on individual lots, but may be applied in areas characterized by a mix of housing types, including detached houses. The districts are also intended to provide a density transition between RSD districts and RM districts. The Zoning Code includes five RSA districts that are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements.
