Property Description
From the kitchen featuring an island, stainless steel appliances, and several windows for optimal light, there is access to a cozy backyard with an arbor and a gate to the side street.
The second floor features the main bedroom at the front of the house, with a large closet complementing the original storage space of the 1920s. A tree in the small front yard provides plenty of light and privacy from spring to autumn in this room. Carpeting throughout the 2nd-floor creates warmth, comfort, and quiet. The hallway bath has been expanded to accommodate a larger vanity and provide plenty of space for more than one user. In the rear of the house are two smaller bedrooms with plenty of light and adequate closet space. Looking for more room? Most of the space in the basement has been converted for several possible uses: home office, child/adult playroom, or family room. This additional living space is complemented by several closets, including a "coffee nook" with a small refrigerator. The laundry is in the front of the basement and has plenty of room for storage.
456 Ripka Street is one block west of Ridge Ave, with easy access to a new coffee shop, restaurants, gym and brewery, as well as the Roxborough Library and Gorgas Park. With significant recent investment and ongoing development along Ridge Avenue, there is no shortage of activities available for residents of all ages, including Roxtober Fest in the fall and other popular annual events. Ripka Street is known as the best trick-or-treat street in Roxborough/Manayunk. SEPTA bus service on Ridge Ave and the Norristown regional rail line, less than a mile away, provides good access to public transportation. Explore 21st-century living on Ripka Street.
