8535 Michener Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19150
What This House Offers
Welcome home to this beautifully maintained corner rowhome in Philadelphia's West Oak Lane/Cedarbrook section, sitting right at the city's northern edge near…
the Cheltenham Township line. The corner location means extra light and space on multiple sides compared to a typical mid-block rowhome, and you'll also get the convenience of your own attached garage — a real perk in this part of the city. The house offers 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms across approximately 1,350 square feet of living space, and it's move-in ready.
The location is what makes this one special. Arcadia University is just a short drive away, making this an excellent option for students, faculty, or staff who want a real house instead of a dorm or apartment, and La Salle University is close by as well, putting a second campus within easy reach. Cedarbrook Shopping Center and the Cheltenham Avenue retail corridor are minutes away for groceries, dining, and everyday errands, and you'll have easy access to PA-309/Stenton Ave and Cheltenham Ave, with SEPTA bus routes nearby connecting to Center City Philadelphia, Chestnut Hill, and Mount Airy. It's a quiet, established residential block, close to parks and green space in both West Oak Lane and neighboring Cheltenham Township.
This is the kind of home that's hard to find at this price: real bedrooms, real bathrooms, a private garage, and the extra breathing room of a corner lot, all within easy reach of Arcadia and La Salle, plus quick access to shopping, transit, and Philadelphia's Northwest neighborhoods. Whether you're a family looking to put down roots, a group of students or roommates wanting more space than an apartment offers, or faculty commuting to campus, this property checks every box. Available for $2,500 a month — don't miss this one, schedule your tour today!
