Property Description

Grand and full of character, 4722 Springfield Avenue is a classic Cedar Park Victorian defined by its traditional layout, expansive wraparound porch, and beautifully preserved original details. Set on a welcoming, community-oriented block, it offers the best of West Philadelphia living. An encaustic tiled vestibule opens to a gracious living room with crown molding, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a wood-burning fireplace. The formal dining room just beyond features a bay window, chair railings, and abundant natural light, while French doors lead seamlessly to the front porch—ideal for entertaining or everyday living. At the rear, the spacious kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, eco-friendly Richlite countertops, subway tile backsplash, and an original built-in pantry. This level also includes a convenient powder room and a dedicated laundry room with direct access to the expansive, tree-lined backyard—perfect for gardening, dining, or relaxing outdoors. The second floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms. The rear room, currently used as a den, features a carved wood mantel with decorative tile and overlooks the yard. A second bedroom sits near the hall bath, complete with a marble-topped sink, clawfoot tub, and shower wand. The front primary bedroom is bright and spacious with two closets. A skylight above the staircase fills the third floor with natural light, where three additional bedrooms and a full bath continue the home’s generous scale. A fourth-floor attic provides excellent storage. Original details—crown molding, leaded glass, inlaid hardwood floors, and period woodwork—are thoughtfully preserved throughout, while multiple exposures bring in consistent natural light. Ideally located just steps from Clark Park and the Baltimore Avenue corridor, with favorites like Doro Bet, Gold Standard, Loco Pez, Vietnam Café, and Dahlak nearby, plus easy access to Penn, CHOP, HUP, Drexel, Saint Joseph’s, and SEPTA transit—this is a rare opportunity to own a timeless home in one of Philadelphia’s most beloved neighborhoods.
