Property Description
This Victorian twin home, built around the 1890's and located in the historic district of Ridley Park Borough, is rich with timeless character and architectural detail. Step onto the welcoming front porch and enter through vintage double doors into the foyer, where you’re immediately greeted by an authentic Victorian banister that gracefully leads to the upper levels. To the left, the living and dining rooms flow beautifully, separated by original pocket doors—a classic feature rarely found today. These rooms boast original random width floor boards, soaring ceilings, and preserved woodwork, creating a warm and elegant atmosphere ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen offers endless possibilities, ready to be reimagined to suit your vision. The rear door opens to a screened-in porch and a convenient storage closet, adding both charm and functionality. The second-floor features three generously sized bedrooms and a full hall bathroom, while the third floor offers two additional bedrooms and a spacious bath complete with a stunning antique clawfoot soaking tub—a true nod to the home’s Victorian roots. The unfinished basement provides abundant storage and houses the washer and dryer. This home is a dream for historic home enthusiasts and renovators, offering the perfect blend of preserved details and opportunity to personalize. Parking in back for at least 2 vehicles. Ideally located just steps from the Ridley Park train station, with easy access to I-95 and minutes from Philadelphia International Airport. Ridley Park is a charming, walkable borough featuring restaurants, a bakery, shops, and a vibrant town center. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history and make it your own.
