Property Description

Welcome to 1971 Ashley Street, where timeless charm meets unlimited potential in this vibrant and historic neighborhood. Located in a proud, well-established section of Philadelphia, West Oak Lane offers a rare mix of suburban charm and city convenience. Lined with mature trees, friendly neighbors, and well-kept brick homes, the block itself exudes stability and warmth. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath rowhome is ideal for potential homeowners or investors who see the limitless opportunity waiting to be seized — whether you're looking to reside, rent, or resell (flip). Step inside and be greeted by a classic Philadelphia layout: an inviting living room with vintage wood floors, a formal dining space framed by decorative columns, and generous natural light filtering through original windows. The vintage kitchen is ready for your vision — a canvas waiting for you to design your masterpiece. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms, each with hardwood floors. The full bathroom features a skylight, vintage tiling, and a blend of character rarely found. Downstairs, the full unfinished basement includes a laundry area, mechanicals, storage, and walkout garage access. This area can be transformed into additional living space, a home gym, workshop, studio or whatever your creative heart desires. This home is located minutes from Cheltenham Avenue, Ogontz Avenue, and Broad Street — major corridors for transit and shopping. ShopRite, Home Depot, La Salle University, Einstein Medical Center, and the Cheltenham Mall are all in close proximity. Surrounded by parks, including Awbury Arboretum, Finley Playground, and Russell Conwell Park. There are multiple SEPTA bus and regional rail stops nearby for easy access to Center City, suburban Philadelphia and beyond. Schedule your showing ASAP, because this one will not last long. Whether you're ready to renovate, rent, or reimagine, a world of opportunity awaits...
