Original architectural details add character throughout, including the front double entry doors crafted in solid red oak with tall glass panels and brass hardware—perfectly poised for restoration. Inside, the main floor offers generous width and high ceilings, ideal for reimagining the living spaces. The rear patio, approximately 170 sq. ft., invites creative landscaping ideas.

Harrowgate is an emerging neighborhood where early 20th-century Philadelphia architecture is being rediscovered and restored. The community is active and engaged, with local initiatives improving public spaces and fostering a strong sense of place. Conveniently located near Aramingo Avenue shopping, public transit on Frankford and Castor Avenues, the Tioga Station of the Market-Frankford El, I-95 access, and within walking distance to Walmart and Target. Nearby 3-bedroom homes that have been updated rent for around $1,500/month, and recently renovated properties within a quarter mile have sold in the $185,000–$215,000 range, demonstrating both rental and resale potential. This is a home for someone with vision—whether to create a comfortable personal space, generate rental income, or make a modest renovation that adds value. Potential is the key word.
