About this home

Welcome to 212 Owen Ave! Situated on a tree-lined avenue in historic Lansdowne, this newly renovated 5 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home pairs traditional architectural character with fresh, modern updates throughout, including a brand-new roof and freshly poured sidewalks. A classic covered front porch invites you into the property. Stepping inside, you enter a spacious living room featuring a convenient main floor half bathroom. To the right, at the front of the home, sits a light-filled bonus room anchored by a decorative fireplace, ideal for a sitting room, sunroom, or home office. Heading back through the living room to the left, the layout leads into the formal dining room, setting the stage for hosting and everyday dining. Beyond the dining room is a bright eat-in kitchen, outfitted with abundant cabinetry, plentiful window light, and a custom built-in coffee bar, along with direct access to the rear yard for easy indoor-outdoor living. The second floor houses three bright bedrooms and a central hall bathroom with a classic tub/shower combination. Heading to the third floor, you will find two additional bedrooms alongside a remarkably spacious full bathroom featuring a double vanity and tub/shower combo. The full, unfinished basement offers extensive space for storage and utilities. The residence is located just a short walk from the independent shops, open-air farmer's market, and local dining along Lansdowne Avenue, as well as nearby parks like Interboro Park. Commuting into the city is seamless, with immediate proximity to the SEPTA Regional Rail providing a direct, quick route straight into University City and Center City Philadelphia.
