About 609 Fountain St
Fantastic opportunity in Wissahickon Hills, one of Philadelphia's most desirable neighborhoods. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath twin offers great space, a functional layout, and endless potential. Perfect for an investor, rehabber, or homeowner looking to build equity and create a customized home. The main floor includes a bright living room, dining area, and large eat-in kitchen. Upstairs are three bedrooms with generous closets and a full hall bath. The garage has been converted into a flexible bonus room with additional storage. Lower level offers a walk-out basement, providing space for expansion, laundry, or a workshop. Hardwood floors are believed to be under the existing carpeting. Driveway parking adds convenience. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street just minutes to Gorgas Park, Main Street Manayunk, and Wissahickon Valley Park trails. Easy access to public transportation, major roadways, Center City, and the suburbs. This property is being sold as-is and requires a complete rehab—an excellent investment or value-add project with strong resale and rental potential in a highly sought-after neighborhood.
