Description
Welcome to 5928 Sansom Street in West Philadelphia — Where Style, Comfort & Convenience converge. Step inside this fully renovated West Philly gem and feel the energy shift. Every inch of this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath beauty has been thoughtfully transformed to give you the sleek modern lifestyle you deserve, without sacrificing the character that makes city living magical. From the moment you enter, you're greeted by an open-concept layout that flows effortlessly from the sunlit living room to the designer kitchen. Your eyes are drawn to the rich red exposed brick that climbs the staircase wall—a bold, urban statement against a crisp palette of light gray walls and warm luxury plank flooring. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showstopper, featuring navy shaker cabinets, sparkling granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a marbled tile backsplash, floating pendant lights, bar seating, and an eat-in dining area. Whether you're meal-prepping, hosting friends, or just enjoying a quiet coffee, this space works as hard as it wows. Each of the three large bedrooms offers plush upholstered bed frames, full matching dressers and nightstands, work-from-home stations, individual remote-controlled, mini-split A/C & heating units, wall-mounted flat screen TVs, and soft, contemporary colors to suit every vibe. The main bath is spa-inspired with a walk-in shower wrapped in marble-style tile, built-in shelving, modern fixtures, and accessibility grab bars. The half bath on the main level adds an urban edge with its exposed brick accent wall and clean finishes. The freshly sealed basement offers a blank canvas for storage, a future rec room, or a creative studio. 200 amps are already in place, giving you enough juice to power all your electrical needs. The new, private fenced-in backyard, with freshly poured, new concrete is low-maintenance, and perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The covered, enclosed front porch adds curb appeal and extra chillaxing space that feels connected to the neighborhood. Additional features include an in-unit washer and dryer, brand new windows and flooring, updated systems throughout, and move-in-ready condition that makes it easy to start anew. (This home has also been Section 8 approved, so if you are an investor looking for a turn-key property to start, or add to, your portfolio, this could be the one for you.) Located in the heart of West Philadelphia, you are surrounded by culture, connectivity, and community. Walk to Malcolm X Park, hop on the Market-Frankford line, or explore the 52nd Street corridor full of grocery stores, shops, and local eateries. You're just minutes away from major universities like University of Pennsylvania & Drexel, Center City, CHOP, University City and green spaces, making this location ideal for convenience, lifestyle, and long-term livability.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
