About 3797 Cresson St

Flooded with natural light, this impeccable three story Manayunk home sits on a quiet, low-traffic street with breathtaking views of the Schuylkill River and Belmont Hills. Step inside to an open-concept main floor where exposed brick, high ceilings, and skylights create a bright and airy feeling. A perfect blending of historic details and modern upgrades, from the stair railing made from old wine barrels to the exposed beams and original red pine hardwood floors, make this a unique home. You enter into a sizeable living room and proceed through to the renovated kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, concrete countertops, and a spacious center island, which seamlessly flows into the extended dining room and den. It's currently used as a home for the grand piano, with a cozy fireplace and skylight. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms share a beautifully designed hall bath with custom tile and a striking stone accent wall. The top-level primary suite is a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, a spa-like ensuite bath featuring a walk-in shower, heated towel rack, and double vanity. As an added bonus, a small traditional cedar sauna is tucked above the stairs. There's also a versatile bonus room off the primary bedroom perfect for an office, nursery, or walk-in closet. Outside, the newly fenced backyard is ready for gardening, entertaining, or pets, the ideal sun-soaked retreat. The lower level offers laundry, storage, and space for a home gym. Just a short walk from Main Street’s restaurants and shops, with easy access to Kelly Drive, Wissahickon Park, City ave, and major transit routes, this home is a perfect blend of charm, light, and modern convenience.
