About the Listing 61010 - 3124451,3136160

Set in the Blue Bell Hill section of Germantown, one of Northwest Philadelphia's most coveted pockets, 6036 Wissahickon Ave is a rare opportunity to own a home where city living and natural beauty genuinely coexist. Steps from the mouth of Rittenhouse Town Lane (just 500 feet away), you're essentially at the doorstep of the Wissahickon Valley, with miles of trails, towering hemlocks, and Wissahickon Creek right outside your daily routine. Inside, the home delivers on every practical front. Hardwood floors run throughout, and the very large updated kitchen is ready for real use, not just good looks. The dining room seats six with ease and has room to expand when the occasion calls for it, flowing naturally from a living space anchored by a fireplace. First floor laundry keeps the day-to-day running smoothly. Four bedrooms offer room to grow, flex, or work from home, while the 1.5 baths are well-positioned for the layout. Central air on the second floor keeps the sleeping quarters comfortable through Philadelphia summers, and the large basement adds meaningful bonus space for storage, a gym, a rec room, or future finished square footage, the bones are there. Outside, a generous rear and side yard rounds out the package with room for gardens, gatherings, or simply breathing. The location does a lot of the heavy lifting: Weavers Way Co-op and the Chelten Avenue Regional Rail station are both .8 miles away, putting farm-fresh groceries and a quick ride to Center City within easy reach. This is a neighborhood where you can walk to the farmers market, run the creek trail, and still make it downtown in time for a meeting. This is a wonderful chance to own a classic Blue Bell Hill property with terrific features, inside and out! Showings begin Friday, June 12, 2026.
