About this home
Charming Fixer-Upper with Endless Potential in Historic Germantown
Welcome to 5138 Newhall Street. A hidden gem nestled on a quiet, tree-lined block in Philadelphia’s vibrant Germantown neighborhood. This classic twin home is brimming with character and waiting for someone with vision to bring it back to life.
Featuring 6 bedrooms, 2 full bath, and original architectural details, this property offers a fantastic opportunity for homeowners, investors, or DIY enthusiasts ready to restore and reimagine. The bones are solid, the layout is functional, and the charm is undeniable—from the high ceilings and vintage moldings to the cozy front porch perfect for morning coffee.
Step inside and you'll find a spacious living area, a formal dining room, and a kitchen that’s ready for a makeover. Upstairs, the bedrooms are filled with natural light and offer plenty of space to grow into. There's also a full basement for additional storage or renovation potential.
Outside, the private backyard provides ample room for gardening, entertaining, or creating your own urban oasis. Easy access to public transportation, major highways, local parks, and Germantown’s growing selection of cafes and shops, the location is as convenient as it is charming.
This is more than just a house—it’s an opportunity to create a home. With some TLC and a little imagination, it could be the perfect canvas for your next chapter.
Being sold as-is. Bring your contractor and your creativity—this one is worth the work.
