309 Highland Avenue, Jenkintown, PA 19046

Property Description

Welcome to 309 Highland Avenue…a rare opportunity to bring new life to one of Jenkintown Borough’s classic stone & brick homes in an absolutely unbeatable location. Built in 1920, this spacious three-story home is filled with timeless character, architectural charm, & endless potential. One of two beautiful “sister homes” overlooking the Jenkintown football field, the property showcases the kind of craftsmanship, scale, & presence that makes these classic Borough homes so special. The neighboring home has been beautifully restored, offering wonderful inspiration for what this home could become once again. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the Borough, the home is currently configured as a duplex, though it originally served as a single-family residence for decades before being converted in the late 1990s. With vision, creativity, & restoration, it could easily be transformed back into the stunning single-family home it once was. A large wraparound front porch welcomes you into a charming vestibule with original double doors leading into a beautiful center hallway filled with natural woodwork & timeless architectural details. Throughout the home, you’ll find oversized rooms, high ceilings, incredible natural light, & the kind of craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated today. The first-floor living space currently features a large eat-in kitchen, three bedrooms, a full bath, & a spacious family room with a brick fireplace with gas logs. The second & third floors offer an additional kitchen, multiple bedrooms, two full baths, generous living spaces, & a wide hallway that adds even more character to the upper levels of the home. While the home is in need of updating & cosmetic improvements, the possibilities here are truly endless. Restore it into one magnificent single-family home, live in one unit & rent the other, continue using it as an investment property, or create a multi-generational living situation. With no current tenant leases in place, the next owner will have the flexibility to immediately reimagine, renovate, occupy, or lease the property based on their own vision & needs. Outside, the property continues to impress with a large backyard, deck with awning, handicap-accessible ramp, detached two-car garage, & an expansive private driveway with parking for approximately ten vehicles. And then there’s the location… Just four doors from the award-winning Jenkintown School District, two blocks from the highly desirable Jenkintown Train Station, directly across from the Jenkintown football field, & only a few short blocks to the vibrant Jenkintown shopping district filled with unique boutiques, fabulous restaurants, pubs, the historic Hiway Theater, the historic Jenkintown Library, Town Square events, live music, the local Farmers Market, & so much more. This walkable community is one of the most beloved small-town settings in the Philadelphia suburbs. Homes like this rarely become available. Bring your vision, your ideas, & your inspiration…309 Highland Avenue is ready to become something truly special once again. Call for appointment.
