About This Home

Tucked away on a quiet cul de sac, high on crest in desirable North Riverdale, 6209 Spencer Terrace presents a rare opportunity to re-imagine a one-of-a-kind, mid-century modern home. Built by the owner’s parents in 1960, this solidly constructed residence offers five bedrooms and 2.5 baths and is rich with character, space, and potential. Two of the bedrooms and a bathroom are on the first floor with no stairs to climb! This architect designed home is need of an updated renovation, making it an ideal canvas for buyers with vision and creativity. Its generous layout and mid-century design elements provide endless possibilities—whether restoring it as a stunning single-family home or exploring the potential to convert it into a two-family property (buyer to verify). Set on a quiet, low-traffic street, the location offers privacy and tranquility while still being close to parks, schools, shopping, transportation and offers easy access to local houses of worship. Opportunities like this—on a street like this—rarely come to market. Bring your architect, your imagination, and your contractor—this is North Riverdale potential at its best. 2025 Tax Bill: $12,435.24
