About this home
Beautifully renovated 3-bedroom home tucked away on a quiet residential block in University City, just steps from Saint Joseph's University (University City campus), Clark Park and the SEPTA Green Line trolley.
**Qualifying buyers may be eligible for a PHFA grant of up to 5% of the purchase price toward down payment and closing costs — potentially $12,495 at the current asking price. Buyer eligibility and program requirements apply; contact listing agent for lender/program details.**
Inside, the home features a renovated kitchen and bathroom, new flooring, fresh paint and window air conditioning units, creating a bright, move-in-ready living space. The home's major systems have also been well maintained, including a roof replaced within the last 10 years.
