Welcome to 3137 Edgemont Street, where original character and thoughtful modern updates come together on one of Port Richmond's most charming tree-lined blocks. This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath rowhome is full of the craftsmanship, warmth, and timeless details that make Philadelphia rowhomes so special - while offering the peace of mind of major system updates and modern conveniences. Even better, parking is available immediately across the street for just $75/month, making city living that much more convenient. Step through the stunning tiled vestibule, where original woodwork and stained glass create an unforgettable first impression. Inside, the spacious living room showcases the home's historic charm with beautifully refinished hardwood floors, oversized windows, and a striking original mantel. The adjoining dining room offers plenty of room to gather, whether you're hosting holiday celebrations, dinner parties, or relaxed weeknight meals. The beautifully updated kitchen strikes the perfect balance between old and new. Modern appliances, updated cabinetry, generous counter space, and abundant natural light create a space that's as functional as it is inviting.

Behind the scenes, this home has been thoughtfully updated where it counts. In 2022, the original knob-and-tube wiring was completely removed and replaced, and the plumbing was updated, allowing you to enjoy the home's historic character with the confidence of modern infrastructure. The home also features a wired security system for added convenience and peace of mind. Out back, a fully refreshed yard offers your own private retreat in the city. With new fencing, green space, and room for outdoor seating, it's easy to picture summer barbecues, morning coffee, or relaxing evenings outdoors. Part of the appeal of life here is how easy it is to leave the car behind. Grab coffee at Ellie & Bird, meet friends for dinner at Nemi, or stop by Universal Bread Bakers - all just a short stroll from your front door. With beloved local restaurants, cafés, and shops nearby, you'll enjoy the convenience of a truly walkable neighborhood while still being minutes from I-95 and Center City. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms continue the home's timeless appeal. Original doors and hardwood flooring preserve the character of the second floor, while large, sun-filled windows make each room feel bright and welcoming. A charming full bathroom with classic details and a soaking tub completes the space. Lovingly cared for and thoughtfully improved, 3137 Edgemont Street offers the rare combination of historic Philadelphia charm, modern convenience, and a true sense of home. With its character, extensive updates, and unbeatable Port Richmond location, all that's left to do is move in and make it your own!
