Kensington
Sell Your Kensington House with Honest Numbers.
Kensington is a neighborhood of sharp contrasts. Some blocks are fully renovated with new restaurants and coffee shops. Other blocks are still rough. The difference between a great outcome and a bad one here is literally which street your house sits on. That block-by-block knowledge is the whole game.
What's Here
Kensington Avenue commercial corridor, Temple University Hospital Episcopal Campus, Norris Square Park, the growing Frankford Avenue extension from Fishtown, and the Lehigh Viaduct. Nearby Liberties Walk retail and the developing waterfront along the Delaware.
The Housing Stock
Mix of Victorian-era rowhomes, some with original woodwork and high ceilings, and smaller two-story workers' rowhomes. New construction infill is accelerating on blocks closer to Fishtown. Prices vary dramatically: a renovated home on a strong block can hit $400K+ while a distressed property two blocks away might trade at $100K.
Transit & Access
SEPTA Market-Frankford Line at Somerset and Allegheny stations. Multiple SEPTA bus routes along Kensington Avenue. I-95 accessible via Aramingo Avenue.
The Builder's Read
This is where the builder's eye matters most. I can walk a Kensington block and tell you whether your house is on a trajectory block or one that's still years away. For sellers, the honest read here saves you from either underselling a strong position or overpricing on a block the market hasn't reached yet.
