Victorian

Situated on one of Lansdowne’s most picturesque and secluded streets, this beautifully updated home reflects the time and care that both current and previous owners have invested in restoring this gem. This 5BR/2BA brick twin from the 1890s offers the perfect blend of timeless character and thoughtful modern upgrades. Just across the way, a wooded trail winds through Pennock Woods to Darby Creek, and a short walk in the other direction brings you to the train station, farmers market, and the vibrant heart of downtown Lansdowne. Enter the home via the inviting screened-in porch or through the convenient rear laundry room, where you’re welcomed into an open and thoughtfully redesigned main floor ideal for hosting and everyday living. The exposed brick walls, wooden beams, and skylights that flood the rooms with natural light, add warmth and architectural interest. The custom Danish Vipp kitchen is a showstopper with stainless steel countertops, Miele and Fisher & Paykel appliances, and Shade Store blinds. Restored windows with Ball & Ball hardware, reclaimed hardwood floors, and updated plumbing complement a fully remodeled bathroom, new furnace, and newly paved driveway. Even the wiring has been modernized with complete knob-and-tube remediation. The original wood staircase leads to the second floor, where three generously sized bedrooms offer built-in closets, beautiful natural light, and space for both rest and creativity. A thoughtfully designed hall bath serves this level, blending period charm with modern convenience. The upper level provides two additional bedrooms and a full bath- perfect for guests, an expansive home office, a private primary suite, or a peaceful retreat away from the main living spaces. With flexible layouts and distinctive character throughout, every level of this home offers its own sense of comfort and style. The backyard is a fully fenced retreat with a cedar privacy fence, offering plenty of space for activities, relaxing and weekend gatherings. Out front, a wildflower meadow frames a multi-car parking loop with room to add a garage if desired. The sizable basement with a sump pump provides abundant storage and a dedicated workshop area. With parks, sports fields, wooded trails, swim clubs, and both small businesses and larger stores nearby, the location offers something for everyone. The Media/Wawa Line makes commuting to Philadelphia easy, and you’re just 15 minutes from Philadelphia International Airport. This is more than a home- it’s a place where historic charm, design- conscious updates, and a welcoming community meet. *Property is eligible for Homestead Exemption.
