Property Description
Welcome to 4906 Walnut Street, a three-story 1920s twin located in the Walnut Hill section of University City. This stately brick home sits on the celebrated 4900 block, recently recognized with historic designation as Paul Robeson Way.
Inside, you'll find over 2,100 square feet of original detail, including wood-paneled entryways, a carved fireplace, and a classic turned staircase—reminders of the craftsmanship that defined the era. While the home will require a full renovation, it presents an exceptional opportunity for the right buyer to restore and reimagine the space.
The generous layout makes it ideal for a variety of uses: a spacious single-family home for multiple generations, an income-producing property, or student housing with close proximity to Penn, Drexel, and University of the Sciences. Zoned RSA-3, buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence with the City of Philadelphia to explore potential uses.
With its historic charm, desirable location, and substantial square footage, 4906 Walnut offers a blank canvas for those ready to bring new life to a classic University City home.
