Overview

Welcome to 3269 E Thompson, a real time capsule of a house, packed with original character and tucked into the heart of Port Richmond. Step into the vestibule, and you'll immediately feel it: textured glass, original tile, and an old interior door that sets the tone for what's inside. The living and dining rooms don't disappoint. Custom wainscoting, built-in bookshelves, and cherry hardwood floors (with pegs!) that have clearly been cared for over the years. There's also a charming updated half bath tucked just off the living space, so no one's trekking upstairs for a quick stop. Then there's the kitchen, full of vintage character. Newly tiled floors, exposed ceiling beams, stained glass cabinet fronts, and a stained glass window over the sink with a tulip design that catches the light nicely. A custom wrought iron baluster takes you up to the second floor, where you'll find inlaid oak floors, three good-sized bedrooms, and a pink tiled bathroom with a skylight that feels straight out of another era. Beyond the charm, this place is practical, too. A 16x60 lot, no shortage of closet space, and a basement with about 7.5 feet of headroom, enough to stand and move around in. Location-wise, you're set. Quick access to I-95 and just a short walk to Frank Glavin Playground, Campbell Square Park, and the shops and restaurants along Richmond St., including neighborhood staples like Czerw's, Bonk's Bar, and Byrne's Tavern. The SEPTA 60 bus and 15 trolley are both within easy walking distance at the Richmond St & Westmoreland St loop.
