3 LONGFORD ST Philadelphia, PA 19136

Are you a nature lover? Do you like your privacy? Want a HUGE basement? Would you like an open concept floor plan? Need lots of natural light? If you answered YES to any of these questions, then this home is perfect for you! Once you turn onto Longford Street, you’ll feel like you’re in the suburbs. This home, designed by the renowned architect Louis Kahn at the beginning of his career, is situated on a quiet, historic, cul de sac street, nestled in Pennypack Park. The Philadelphia Historical Society has chosen the Longford Street development to be included in the Philadelphia Register of Historical Places. This home was transformed with a full gut rehab about ten years ago. The transformation included new insulation and interior walls, new electric and lighting, new plumbing, two full bathrooms, new kitchen, new appliances, new heater, water heater and central air just to name a few. In addition, a brand new roof was installed less than a year ago. Set back from the street, there is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy, as well as lots of privacy from your neighbors. Whether you choose to park on the street, or in the private two car driveway, there will still be plenty of room for your guests to park. As you enter the front door, you’ll be greeted with a large open concept floor plan including beautiful wood floors, granite counter tops, a wood burning fireplace, and lots of large windows to let in natural light. Custom window treatments are included, for when it gets too bright. Down the hall is a full bathroom, second bedroom and a laundry room. At the end of the hall, you’ll enter the large primary suite, with a huge walk in closet! There is also a full bathroom with double sinks and a jetted tub. As if all of this wasn’t enough, there is still a full basement that spans the entire length of the house. With an extra 1300+ sqft, there’s unlimited potential down there. Imagine a home gym, a home theater, a workshop, a playroom, extra space to store unused items, more bedrooms, an in-law suite? The possibilities are endless! There’s even access to the side yard from the basement. Almost forgot to mention the two cedar closets in the basement. In addition, the house is wired with CAT6 for avid gamers and/or the perfect setup for working from home. Excited yet? What are you waiting for? Schedule your appointment today!
