Normandy Village, located between Roosevelt Boulevard and Pennypack Park, is a residential and garden-style Philadelphia neighborhood with brick twin homes and leafy courtyards. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Roosevelt Boulevard and Grant Avenue corridor, where auto-oriented storefronts, corner takeout counters, and everyday services set a steady, practical rhythm. Much of the streetscape reads as mid-century Philadelphia: tidy front lawns, shared driveways, and low-rise apartment courts. Pennypack Park’s trails and creek crossings shape weekend routines and give the area a green edge. Nearby shopping clusters along Bustleton Avenue add groceries and small eateries without changing the quiet blocks. SEPTA bus lines along the boulevard connect the neighborhood to the wider Northeast.

Welcome to 2863 Nautilus Road, a single family cape cod in the desirable Normandy section of Philadelphia where the location is everything! All major renovations have been made in the past 4 years! The first floor features a single bedroom, one full bathroom, and a separate laundry area. The modern kitchen has a breakfast bar, farmhouse sink, and cabinets that extend into the dining room for additional storage and counter space. Upstairs you will find two larger, private bedrooms with another full bathroom and a cozy loft in between. Go through the sliding glass doors to see even more storage in the sprawling backyard with a large patio, insulated shed, and a 6 foot privacy fence enclosing the space. The owners removed the above-ground pool and surrounding deck to really expand the space of the yard along with the trees out front. The front yard is just as big along with a private driveway that could fit 3 vehicles! This home is nestled in a quiet nook in the Northeast, but still close to so many amenities and easy access to the Roosevelt Boulevard, I-95, and Route 63. Just across the way is newer commercial development featuring a Top Golf, Chipotle, Chick-Fil-A, Aldi, Wawa, and so much more. Beat the Spring rush and secure the only active listing in Normandy!
