Nestled in the heart of vibrant Manayunk, this this one-of-a-kind home is a true work of art, blending historic charm with modern comforts. With original wide plank pine floors throughout, abounding architectural details, an exposed stone wall, modern custom craftsman touches, and central a/c, this home exudes a tranquil warmth with an artistic flare. Built on a quintessential Manayunk hill, the home is fronted by a custom flower garden by brick artist, Michael Morgan. Up the stairs and through the front door, you will discover an open and airy straight-through layout. The living room features built-in bookshelves and an abundance of natural light pouring through the south facing front window. The spacious dining room has a gas fireplace with a brick hearth for warmth and ambiance, and original built-in China cabinets. A pass-through window and doorway lead into a country style kitchen with custom Amish-built pine inlay cabinetry and rich cherry countertops, while scenes from the fairy garden entrance and delight through the windows. The laundry area and full bath with curbless shower and custom barn door complete the first floor. Kitchen, laundry area, and bath all have continuous electric radiant floor heat. Up the original winding stairs, you’ll find one spacious bedroom with two closets and one smaller bedroom with a very large closet big enough for an office buildout or a built-in bed nook. The full bath on the second floor features a cast iron tub, black and white 4x4 wall tiles, and matching keystone floor tiles. Up another winding staircase you'll find another large bedroom with high ceilings and a wide closet, a smaller bedroom with a wide closet, and another full bath with cast iron tub (that's THREE full baths!). Outside, escape into your own private fairytale retreat—a magical Fairy Garden complete with a pond, tiered lush landscaping, and custom brick patio area. Whether you're hosting a garden party or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this backyard is a rare urban sanctuary. Located just steps from Main Street Manayunk, you'll have easy access to restaurants, boutiques, cafes, and the scenic Schuylkill River Trail and the stunning views from the Manayunk Bridge. Plus, with convenient access to public transit and major highways, commuting to Center City Philadelphia is a breeze.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
