Property Description
Welcome to 1628 Wakeling St, a massive, well-maintained twin home in the heart of the Northeast’s Frankford section. Currently used as a single family (but once a duplex), this home delivers on size, curb appeal and convenient location.
With over 2100 square feet of living space, two separate entrances and steps from the Frankford-Jefferson Hospital and Frankford Transportation Center, this home is a great match for a large family, or an investor looking to convert back to a multi-family. The inviting porch welcomes you into an open concept living and kitchen area. The two seamlessly flow into one another and offer space for large gatherings and multiple furniture configurations. The kitchen was designed by a professional chef and offers top of the line appliances and plenty of room for more than one cook! A conveniently located powder room, formal dining room and mud room at the back of the house round out the first floor. The second and third floors were once a large 2 bedroom apartment and is now home to 5 bedrooms, one of which is currently set up as a laundry room, and one full bath. The oversized front bedroom has newer floors and windows, and a dedicated work-from-home area. The back bedroom is as roomy as the rest of the house and has wonderful closet space. The third floor offers two of the five bedrooms and is being used as an attic.
The full basement with extremely high ceilings is clean and dry thanks to a brand new sewer line (July 2024) that comes with a 10 year, transferrable warranty. Additional maintenance items of value include newer windows, 30 year roof warranty and newer deck/siding in areas. This home has been well loved for decades and is just waiting for the next owner to realize its fullest potential. Various grants upwards of $10,000 available for owner occupants. This home is being sold in As-Is condition.
