Description

If you’re a visionary buyer with a true appreciation for older homes that feature lots of character, then you must come out and tour 4939 Catharine — a lovely and spacious 3.5 Story Victorian Twin situated in one of West Philly’s most popular neighborhoods, Cedar Park. This approximately 2400’ft 6-7 Bedroom 2.5 Bath home was built in 1925 and is set on a leafy tree lined street directly across from popular Cedar Park itself, and centrally located within blocks of fantastic eateries and coffee shops, and literally minutes to Penn, CHOP, HUP, Drexel, and Center City via nearby SEPTA trolleys. Upon entering the property, the first of two gardens and large welcoming covered porch welcome you. Step inside to discover a layout full of architectural elements and character, beginning with the beautiful vestibule featuring original doors, gorgeous wainscoting & wood panelling, and original tessellated tile flooring. The large anteroom is just beyond the vestibule where you will note a functioning wood burning fireplace with brick mantle and beautiful original HW floors. At one time, this space was part of what was formerly a huge living room, however, at present, the living room area is separated by a partial wall w/ transom window (which, many decades ago, was created as a dentist’s office, but which can easily be removed to restore this space to its original grandeur). You will also admire the beautiful turned staircase with bobbin style balusters and original french doors with lead glass panels leading to the dining area where a small powder room was conveniently added to the 1st floor. Beyond is a very spacious kitchen with tons of white cabinetry, small island and stainless steel appliances. It is in this room where you will discover the back stairs. You will also find another door which leads to the spacious backyard, currently being used as a vegetable garden. In addition to the front and back outdoor spaces, there is also plenty of room and natural light along the side of this house to hone your gardening skills. The 2nd floor features 3 large bedrooms and a full bath with charming claw foot tub and original ornate tile with raised moulding. Some other features on this level include a second wood burning fireplace with charming mirrored mantel as well as a gorgeous built in antique art deco wardrobe. On the 3rd floor you will discover four more spacious rooms and an additional updated modern full tiled bath. Additional perks of this home include a very spacious floored walk up attic with full stairs as well as a large clean basement with decent height ceilings where the laundry is housed - also great for storage and future expansion. There is so much to love about this home - the current owner has maintained its character and integrity for 25+ years, and is now ready to pass it on to the next owner who will continue its beautiful legacy.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
