Tucked just inside the Montgomery County line, this modern Roxborough twin offers the best of both worlds: quick city access with a more peaceful, neighborhood feel. Welcome to 488 Evergreen Avenue — a thoughtfully built 3-story home with 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 half baths, a 1-car garage, and a paved driveway with upgraded stonework for standout curb appeal. With a few years remaining on the tax abatement, it’s a smart value in one of Roxborough’s most sought-after pockets. Inside, the main level is bright and airy with oversized windows, high ceilings, and wide-plank hardwood floors. The kitchen shines with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a pot filler, pantry, and an oversized island with seating. Just off the kitchen, sliding doors open to a deck overlooking the fenced backyard — ideal for morning coffee or warm-weather entertaining. A spacious dining area sits adjacent to the kitchen, while the separate living room features coffered ceilings and a gas fireplace for cozy nights in. A stylish powder room completes the level. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, including a vaulted-ceiling primary suite with a walk-in closet and a beautifully finished ensuite featuring a dual vanity and walk-in glass shower. A full hall bath and convenient second-floor laundry round out this level. The top floor is a true bonus: a large, flexible room with its own full bath — perfect as a fourth bedroom, guest suite, or home office — plus access to a private rooftop deck for even more outdoor space. The finished lower level is currently used as a home gym and includes a half bath, storage, and interior garage access. It also works beautifully as a playroom, media room, or flex space. Minutes from Chestnut Hill, Lafayette Hill, Manayunk, Kelly Drive, and the Wissahickon trails, with easy access to Center City and the Main Line, this home delivers modern, low-maintenance living with the charm of a classic Philly neighborhood.
