Welcome to 5987 Woodbine Ave- unique opportunity for a spacious 8 bedroom detached property with ample parking and a sprawling 1/4+ acre lot to match, conveniently located only blocks away from Overbrook Station and is waiting to be restored to its full glory. Surrounded by greenery on 3 sides, this property has a very adaptable layout featuring spacious, full bathrooms and bedrooms on all 3 floors. With permits, creating additional bedrooms would certainly be a possibility given the generous sizing of 2 bathrooms and primary bedroom! Though this property has been updated over the past 15 years to include modern conveniences like stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, jetted soaking tubs, and most recently, a brand new 240,000 gas boiler installed in 2024, it is still full of original charm. Two fireplaces, stately curved wood staircase, built in benched seating area, vintage sconces, two covered porches, and gabled rooms are all prominent features. Excellent area ARVs and rental possibilities of $3,500+/month await. Don't hesitate to schedule a showing today!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
