This 1 bed 1.5 bath home was built in 1900. The house has stood as the neighborhood turned from the cow pastures of Blue Bell Hill to the neighborhood of old beautiful homes in this wonderful pocket of Philadelphia.

Originally a two bedroom home, when plumbing moved inside, the second bedroom was turned into a bathroom. An extension for the kitchen was built. Later, a back room extension was added in the rear as additional living space.

The present owner has provided several updates, maintenance, and restoration in 2015. You will find some stone walls, hardwood floors, as well as modern extensions, stairs smoothed and molded by footsteps over a hundred years, and a home that has been cherished as a homestead for generations.

This old home is being sold as-is. The present owner has got a pre-inspection which is available for your review.

The current owner works from home and Browne’s second bedroom has become the full bath on the second floor. The upstairs now has oak flooring and one great bedroom.

While area residents may have formally had outdoor kitchens, now the extensive outdoor space is commonly used for relaxation, dogs, gardening, and recreation.

New residents of 630 West Naomi Street can walk East, West, or South and hike on Wissahickon Valley Trails in Fairmount Park. Or they may prefer Blue Bell Meadow, which is affectionately known as Blue Bell Bark in a Facebook group organized by dog lovers.

Added over the years are the convenience of modern trains and roads allowing for today’s residents to easily venture elsewhere in Philadelphia. The home is blocks away from the Tulpehocken and Chelten stations on the Regional Rail as well as the the 65 bus - literal steps from the house.

630 West Naomi Street is ready for its new owner to walk in the front door onto the 19th century pine floor with handmade nails and define its future.
