About This Home

5735 Knox St

Discover a meticulously renovated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom historic gem in the heart of Philadelphia’s Germantown. Ask about existing tax abatement and assumable 2.375% mortgage to help keep monthly costs low! This stunning home combines timeless character with contemporary upgrades, offering an unparalleled lifestyle just steps from parks, dining, and transit. Step into the living room, where soaring high ceilings, gleaming hardwood oak floors, and recessed lighting create a bright, airy ambiance. Smooth-finish drywall and open-tread stairs with custom railings add a modern flourish. The open-concept layout flows naturally into the formal dining area and gourmet kitchen, featuring GE stainless steel appliances, a five-burner self-cleaning oven with griddle, white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a built-in microwave, and a sleek steel fume hood accented by a subway tile backsplash. The primary suite is a true retreat, boasting a brick-accent interior wall, hardwood floors, and a bay window that bathes the space in natural light. Indulge in the spa-inspired bathroom with a double shower stall, dual shower heads, and dual vanity. A walk-in closet and access to a sunny roof deck complete this luxurious haven. Two additional bedrooms on the second floor offer high ceilings, ample closet space, and contemporary ceiling fans, complemented by a stylish hallway bathroom with marble tile, shower-over-tub, dual vanity, and Bluetooth speakers for a touch of modern convenience. A full-size LG washer/dryer is neatly tucked into a closet for added practicality. The finished basement impresses with durable LVP flooring, abundant storage, and a chic wine bar featuring a mini fridge and granite countertop—ideal for hosting or relaxing. This home is updated with a 2023-installed roof (10-year warranty), 200-amp electrical service, upgraded PEX plumbing, PVC waste lines, an electric water heater, and dual-zone AC for year-round comfort. Stay connected with whole-house fiber optic wiring for blazing-fast internet and cable. Note the ADT alarm system, with cameras on the front porch, side, and backyard, and a keyless door lock for peace of mind. Nestled in Germantown, the location offers the best of both worlds: a suburban feel with tree-lined streets and charming homes, paired with urban conveniences. Explore nearby Wissahickon Park for hiking and biking, savor local flavors at trendy restaurants, or shop at Weavers Way organic market and seasonal farmers' markets. Enjoy music festivals, cozy coffee shops, and a vibrant community spirit. Commuting is a breeze with the Chestnut Hill East and West train lines nearby and bus stops just one block away, connecting you to Center City in minutes. This Germantown treasure is a rare find, blending historic charm, modern luxury, and an unbeatable location. Schedule your tour today to experience urban living at its finest!
