Description
Welcome to 5853 Washington Ave, a well-maintained, recently-updated Cobbs Creek beauty with all the original charm you would hope for in a West Philly row home. Enter through the sunny enclosed porch to the spacious living room, which features refinished oak flooring with ornate inlay, original leaded glass windows, a striking green tiled mantle, and sun drenched staircase with a built-in bench, lit from a skylight above. Walk through the living room's pocket door to the window lined dining room and kitchen. Here you'll find a new fridge, oven, and dishwasher, butcher block counter tops, and staircase leading to an extra tall finished basement. The basement has a half bath, new washer/dryer, bulkhead door access to the back yard, and would be perfect for a workshop or studio. Out back is a small sunny yard with a new porch. Head up the stairs to a bright 2nd floor complete with 3 gorgeous skylights. The front of the 2nd floor is a large bedroom with bay window, an ample sized middle room, and recently renovated bathroom with skylight. Beyond that is an open 3rd room, a unique nook for plants or a library that has its own skylight and leads to another large bedroom on the back of the house. Can you see it: the previous owner, Miss Fannie, loved colors and pattern, and some of her various wall papers (hello velvet!) and flooring choices are still intact in the house. Paired with thoughtful upgrades, this space is a balanced blend of past and present. Brand new plumbing, 200amp electrical service, and appliances, with fresh paint throughout and ready for the next owner to enjoy. Walking distance to Cobbs Creek Park, The Shopping Center, Baltimore Ave Trolly and more. Make your appointment today!

Climate and Weather
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.
