This thoughtfully updated mid-century home in the Wynnfield Heights neighborhood blends style and function across 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. The 1-car garage adds flexibility, and the kitchen stands out with carefully selected stainless steel appliances designed for energy efficiency, quiet operation, and clean, modern lines. Marble floors pair seamlessly with Corian countertops, creating a polished and practical space for everyday living. Residents enjoy access to a variety of transit options, with multiple bus lines and regional rail stations nearby. Commuting to Center City or nearby destinations is convenient, and major routes such as I-76 and US-1 are easily accessible. Fairmount Park is just moments away, offering opportunities for recreation and relaxation. Nearby amenities include grocery stores, shops, and retail shops ranging from everyday essentials to specialty markets. The surrounding area also offers a variety of dining, entertainment, and community resources.
This stunning mid-century was restored with an attention to detail unparalleled in its price segment. Heck, your Jenn-Air downdraft cook-top alone costs the amount of the typical stainless steel appliance package. Your appliances were selected to meet the following criteria: energy efficiency, high-quality standards, quiet operation & elegant design cues. The kitchen marble floors perfectly marry your Corian countertops! Your guests will find their warmth a joy for their eyes & feet! Not to be outdone the bathroom was appointed with a design that could win HGTV accolades LOL. Yes, it's magazine worthy but also practical for every day use. The master suite is comfortably sized so even a king bed is no issue. The smallest bedroom fits two twin beds. The finished basement wears a few hats; it's the man cave for big games for guests up to 15, workout room & with egress (and RM1 zoning) has potential as the future 4th bedroom or apartment. Your bright and clean laundry room will add a little joy to the chore. When guests arrive let them into your home via the automatic garage door opener & a few can even park in the driveway or your rear yard. Now if you're searching in Wynnfield Heights you already know it's Philly's best kept secret. You can zip into Center City passing the scenic Boathouse Row on MLK dr. & be at your desk in 15 minutes. 76 & US-1 are 2 minutes away so jetting to KOP in under 25 minutes is realistic. If you want to pass on paying for parking step outside your door & hop aboard 38 or 44 buses into town. .. several regional rail train stops are walking distance too. You'll find biking & jogging enthusiasts zipping around taking advantage of Fairmount Park down the street. Friends can join you on shopping excursions at nearby spots like ROSS and everything in between up to Saks. You'll love that you can walk to Target, ACME & across the street to Fresh Grocer. You have 2 Whole Foods & Trader Joe's 10 minute car ride away. Minors love the 3 parks in walking distance & friends can take advantage of the nearby amenities like the Bryan Mawr Film Institute or opt for something more adventurous such as zip-lining by Treetop Quests 2 block away. Don't kick yourself for missing this opportunity. Schedule your tour today!
