Additional highlights include a full basement with both interior and exterior access, central air conditioning, and an unbeatable location--convenient to public transportation, major highways, and a wide variety of shops and restaurants. The photos have been enhanced.
Roxborough, located between Manayunk and Chestnut Hill, is a hillside and riverside Philadelphia neighborhood with a main-street corridor and wooded park edges. Ridge Avenue concentrates the neighborhood’s character, where corner pubs, longtime delis, and small service storefronts line the slope. Community touchstones include Dalessandro’s Steaks & Hoagies, Union Tap House, and the Roxborough Pocket Park. Twin and rowhouse blocks step down toward the Schuylkill, mixing stone-front tradition with mid-century apartments. The Wissahickon’s trails and the riverfront paths shape daily routines, while SEPTA’s Ivy Ridge station ties the ridge to Center City.
