Calling all buyers and investors! This Victorian-style property offers incredible potential in the heart of West Philadelphia's Cedar Park. With over 3,000 sq/ft of living space spread across 3 stories, this home features 7 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 2 half baths, a shared driveway, and a detached 2-car garage. Additionally, there’s a full basement and attic, providing ample space for storage or future renovations. The property has recently undergone some updates, including a new roof, new windows, and an updated electrical system. However, the home sustained fire damage in October 2023, and the detached garage was impacted by a fire in 2024. Since the fire, the property has been gutted and presents a blank canvas for the new owners to design the property exactly to their liking. This can be a great opportunity for someone who is looking to design their own home from the beginning to end and bring this historic home back to life. The buyer will be responsible for obtaining the U&O. With a Walk Score of 90, this location makes running errands simple without needing a car. It also features a Transit Score of 73, offering excellent public transportation options for convenient travel. Cyclists will enjoy the Bike Score of 92, thanks to flat terrain and well-maintained bike lanes for easy riding. The area is surrounded by fantastic dining options, including Amari's Restaurant, Anna Restaurant, Hibiscus Cafe, Dock Street West, and many more. Nearby schools include Emmanuel Christian Learning Center, Beulah Baptist Christian Day School, Boys Latin of Philadelphia Charter School, The Workshop School, and others. Grocery stores are just a short distance away, with options such as Mariposa Food Co-Op, Quick Stop Deli, Walnut Supermarket, Fu-Wah Mini Market, and more. Public transit is highly accessible, with the 34 13th-Market to 61st-Baltimore trolley stop at Baltimore Ave & 51st St only four minutes away. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby green spaces like Black Oak Park, Cedar Park, and Cedar Park, perfect for relaxation and recreation. Schedule your tour today and envision the possibilities!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
