About this home
Welcome to a rare riverfront retreat in one of Philadelphia’s most exclusive enclaves—2 River Road, nestled directly on the Schuylkill River and just steps from the scenic Schuylkill River Trail. Whether your passion is boating, jet skiing, rowing, kayaking, or biking, this home delivers the lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of, right at your doorstep.
Set on just under a half-acre across two deeded lots, this custom-built home (2007) offers privacy, stunning views, and a unique outdoor experience. The upper lot features a beautifully maintained residence with three bedrooms (currently configured as two bedrooms plus a loft), two and a half bathrooms, a two-car garage, and a spacious unfinished office area on the entry level. The lower riverfront lot is an entertainer’s paradise, complete with private docks—one of which includes a two-tier tiki bar—and additional docks perfect for boat launches or water sports access. A fenced side yard adds additional outdoor space and privacy.
Inside, the main living level showcases an open-concept layout with an updated kitchen, dining area, and a bright, airy living room that opens to a large composite deck overlooking the river. The primary bedroom and laundry area are conveniently located on this level, along with a powder room tucked away for guests. Upstairs, the third level features a bar, guest bedroom with attached bath, and a spacious loft-style living area. For the adventurous, a pull-down staircase leads to the widow’s walk offering breathtaking 360-degree views—perfect for watching sunsets or fireworks from your own private perch.
Additional features include brand-new central air conditioning, excellent curb appeal with a large front balcony facing the river, and a one-year home warranty for added peace of mind. The listing also includes a fully immersive 3D tour with an interactive floor plan so you can explore every inch of this one-of-a-kind property from the comfort of your home.
Be sure to schedule your private tour or join us at the open house on Sunday, June 22nd—opportunities like this don’t come often.
