5810 WALTON AVE Philadelphia, PA 19143

Right-sized and move-in ready with warm chocolate-hued floors, freshly painted neutral walls and an updated kitchen and bathroom, this porchfront rowhome on a quiet little one-way street is a perfect option for a first-time homebuyer. The main floor is open-plan, with a decorative fireplace with original mantel and turned staircase with newly refinished steps in the living room. The rear kitchen is ready for any level of home chef with an L-shaped layout, flat-front white cabinets, metallic tile backsplash and good prep space—plus there’s a mudroom in the back for extra storage. The low-maintenance back yard has just enough space for a grill and some container gardens with room to stash bikes and trash cans out of sight around the side. Three sweet and sunny bedrooms occupy the second level—the front has bench seating in the bay window and double closets, and the middle has a large closet and storage niche as well. They share a hall bath with porcelain tile floors and tub surround and a glass block window that doesn’t sacrifice privacy. Laundry is housed down a wide stairway in the basement with a surprising amount of natural light and plenty of room for storage. This ready-to-go home is in a convenient location near schools, SEPTA, Morris Rec Center, the Free Library and shopping centers. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the easy access to Cobbs Creek Park with its biking and hiking trails, baseball, basketball and ice skating rink.
