Charming Germantown 4BR twin wants $165K

After spending some time as a duplex, this renovated Germantown twin has hit the market for less than $200,000, a price point that we think most house-hunters could get on board with.

The 4-bedroom, 2-bath home clocks in at 1,773 square feet and has an asking price of $165,900. That comes out to just $93 per square foot.

Even better: The seller has already put a lot of elbow grease into the property. In recent years the home was set up as a duplex. It’s now been converted back into a single-family home, undergoing a number of much-needed upgrades in the process. The once-carpeted floors now feature the original hardwood, and the kitchen has been moved to the back of the home, making way for a dining room. Overall, the renovation seems to have brought back to life the home’s original character.

The location at 83 West Washington Lane also puts you close to Wissahickon Valley Park and within walking distance of the Upsal train station on the Chestnut Hill West regional Septa line.

It’s worth pointing out that the home is also available for rent, asking $1,450/month.
