Stop paying for space you don't have. This 3-story stone Victorian twin gives you six bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and over 3,100 square feet above grade, plus a fully finished lower level with a family room and extra bath. That's room for a growing family, a work-from-home setup that doesn't cost you a bedroom, guests who actually stay comfortably, or extended family under one roof without anyone feeling on top of each other. Sitting on one of the deepest, greenest lots in West Central Germantown (over 6,300 square feet), you get something almost no rowhouse in this price band offers: real outdoor space. Mature trees, a private rear deck, and quiet green views from every back-facing window. Morning coffee outside. Kids and dogs with room to run. Summer evenings that feel like you left the city without actually leaving. Inside, original Victorian character meets modern livability. Rich hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and a wood-burning tiled fireplace anchor a main floor that flows the way you actually live. The eat-in kitchen delivers cherry cabinetry, granite counters, stainless appliances, gas cooking, and two large windows over the sink flooding the room with light. Bedrooms across the second and third floors run generous, and the primary suite comes with bay windows framing the treetops. Spa-style hall bath features a jetted soaking tub with full tile surround. Dedicated home office, proper laundry room with a window (no dark basement laundry here), and a separate powder room round out the day-to-day convenience. Location works as hard as the house. Blocks from Wayne Junction Regional Rail puts you in Center City in under 20 minutes without touching a car. Wissahickon Valley trailheads sit within easy reach for weekend hikes. Germantown's cafes, restaurants, and small businesses give you walkable neighborhood life that most Philadelphia zip codes can only claim on paper. Off-street driveway parking for two means you're never circling the block.

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.
