About this home
Old-world charm and character meet modern comforts in this turnkey Manayunk/Roxborough twin with spacious garage parking!
427 Roxborough Avenue’s current and past owners have lovingly cared for and stewarded this property, investing in updates and amenities that enhance daily routines while preserving and restoring this home’s century-old roots. Irreplaceable craftsmanship throughout the home includes a stunning custom wood archway with beveled glass, refinished wood parquet floors with intricate inlaid borders, vintage wood mantel with new electric fireplace insert, gorgeous glass door knobs, an original Victorian stained glass door, and large windows with ornate pediments.
This property is move-in ready thanks to thoughtful upgrades where it counts. This home has had a full kitchen and pantry renovation with quartz countertops, large stainless steel sink, and all-new Bosch and GE appliances. Two rare conveniences for city living include the fully finished basement with bilco doors and a spacious full bath featuring a glass shower stall (perfect for overnight guests!), along with the home’s oversized 1-car garage plus driveway. Walk through the lush tree-lined backyard to a detached garage that opens to a private alley, which offers even more flexible options beyond your 2-car parking on the property.
Other upgrades include a new hot water heater, new underground water service line, and updated 200amp electrical system. Cool off in summer with central air conditioning with custom ductwork, and warm up in winter with your choice between two interchangeable heat sources (forced air or cozy radiant heat). In Spring and fall, enjoy the crisp morning breezes and sunsets from your private front porch, surrounded by trees, flowering bushes and a massive pink rose bush that blossoms across the entire front yard.
Located within the beloved and highly rated Cook-Wissahickon School catchment, the location and walkability of this home are unmatched. Easily walk or bike to the trails of gorgeous Wissahickon Park; stroll down the newly reconstructed Roxborough Avenue steps to Manayunk’s Main Street, the farmers market or the PHS Pop-Up Garden; or walk the shops along Roxborough’s Ridge Avenue. This home is just steps from local gems like Eremita Café coffee shop, Rose’s Water Ice, Twisted Gingers Pizza & Brewery, C&C Creamery, and more. A half-block from bustling Kendrick Rec Center, this property is situated between the neighborhood’s best parks and playgrounds, including the Wissahickon, Pretzel Park, Gorgas Park, Fairview Park, Daisy Field, Neighbors Park and La Noce Park.
A short drive over the Walnut Lane bridge gets you quick access to Mt. Airy, Chestnut Hill and Germantown, and nearby Henry Avenue is a convenient alternative to I-76 offering an easy and direct path to the Lafayette Hill, Conshohocken and Plymouth Meeting suburbs.
Showings start Saturday, August 1st....
