Welcome to 4820 Cedar Avenue, a charming 6-bedroom, 2-bathroom twin home located on a wide, tree-lined street in the heart of West Philadelphia. With approximately 2,700 square feet of living space, this home offers plenty of room for comfortable living, remote work, and entertaining. There's an extra living room/guest area on the main level, also ideal for remote work or study.
Step inside to discover a layout full of character and natural light, with high ceilings and large windows creating an open, airy feel throughout. Additional perks include a spacious walk-in attic and basement for storage or future expansion. Outside, the front porch and backyard provide peaceful spots for relaxing or entertaining guests. Even better, this home includes two HVAC (heating and air conditioning) zones. One system is located in the basement and services the first and second floors. The second system is located in the walk-in attic and services the third floor.
Located in a highly walkable, bike-friendly neighborhood, this home boasts easy access to public transit, University City, and a variety of local favorites and getting around is easy and convenient.
Don't miss your chance to put in some sweat equity and bring this gem back to its glory. The heat is forced air. As a result, adding air-conditioning is relatively simple given that ducts are already in place. Note that similar updated homes are selling in the mid to high 700s.
