A real oasis in the city! 614 W Johnson St is in Blue Bell Hill, a neighborhood perfectly positioned between Wissahickon Park and Clifford Park, and easily accessible to favorite spots in nearby neighborhoods of Mt Airy, Manayunk, and East Falls. The house itself is very charming with built in niches, Scandinavian design influence, and a huge picture window to easily view the nature in the beautiful backyard, making it feel like a seamless extension of the indoor space. Directly inside the front door is a dedicated entry space with built in storage and tons of light from the new Andersen windows. The Scandinavian influence can be seen throughout the main level in the natural wood finishes on the window sills and stair rail, exposed beams, and priority of natural light. A convenient half bath off the dining area has its own charm with beadboard and classic hex tile flooring. The kitchen is large with plenty of storage in the white shaker cabinets, soapstone counters, and black stainless steel appliances. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms - one to the front of the house and two railroad-style bedrooms to the rear. The front bedroom is the largest, and has a ceiling fan and closet. The two rear bedrooms are connected and could be used as two separate spaces, such as a bedroom + office, bedroom + playroom, or two bedrooms; or function as a combined owner’s suite with a separate sitting room area or walk in closet. There are large closets with sliding doors built into the hallway, which are perfect storage for the rear bedrooms, linen closet, or otherwise. Completing the second level is the full bath with shower, white tiling in classic subway and hex shapes, built in shelf storage, and a privacy glass block window with wooden display shelf, perfect for plants! Speaking of plants, the exterior of the house is just as stunning. In the rear, the rain garden is home to birch trees (another Scandinavian nod), red bud trees, hydrangeas (including one that has grown from a clipping of a 100 year old hydrangea!), salvia (a favorite of hummingbirds), hostas, day lilies, irises, and many native plants. You can add your own touch in the raised bed planters made from old timbers. All of this can be enjoyed from the covered patio, even in the rain! Not to be outdone, the front of the home also has plenty of curb appeal with its own garden space, lime washed brick, cedar siding, and restored historic cornice. This labor of love is ready for its next steward!

This 1 bed 1.5 bath home was built in 1900. The house has stood as the neighborhood turned from the cow pastures of Blue Bell Hill to the neighborhood of old beautiful homes in this wonderful pocket of Philadelphia. Originally a two bedroom home, when plumbing moved inside, the second bedroom was turned into a bathroom. An extension for the kitchen was built. Later, a back room extension was added in the rear as additional living space. The present owner has provided several updates, maintenance, and restoration in 2015. You will find some stone walls, hardwood floors, as well as modern extensions, stairs smoothed and molded by footsteps over a hundred years, and a home that has been cherished as a homestead for generations. This old home is being sold as-is. The present owner has got a pre-inspection which is available for your review. The current owner works from home and Browne’s second bedroom has become the full bath on the second floor. The upstairs now has oak flooring and one great bedroom. While area residents may have formally had outdoor kitchens, now the extensive outdoor space is commonly used for relaxation, dogs, gardening, and recreation. New residents of 630 West Naomi Street can walk East, West, or South and hike on Wissahickon Valley Trails in Fairmount Park. Or they may prefer Blue Bell Meadow, which is affectionately known as Blue Bell Bark in a Facebook group organized by dog lovers. Added over the years are the convenience of modern trains and roads allowing for today’s residents to easily venture elsewhere in Philadelphia. The home is blocks away from the Tulpehocken and Chelten stations on the Regional Rail as well as the the 65 bus - literal steps from the house. 630 West Naomi Street is ready for its new owner to walk in the front door onto the 19th century pine floor with handmade nails and define its future.

Hikers, walkers, horseback riders and mountain bikers are found on the trails and Forbidden Drive, away from the clamor of modern life.

The family continued to operate there for 200 years. The historic Blue Bell Hill neighborhood was established by the workers who toiled at the Rittenhouse paper mill, just down the hill. The streets Naomi, David are named after children of the family. The corner house at 640 Naomi St was built by a German stone mason who, as the story goes, was working at the Rittenhouse paper mill and bringing the Wissahickon Schist stone in the wheelbarrow for his house. ----------------->
