Description

THIS IS IT! This 2200 sq ft paradise exudes a suburban feel within a city location. This four (4) bedrooms, one and a half (1.5) bathrooms feels like a mini mansion, by design. This end row unit is recessed from the street, and was one of the original homes in the neighborhood, which makes it one of the largest residential homes on the block. Walk up to this warm inviting wrap around porch, past the front yard, where you can enjoy your preferred refreshment or "people watch" the neighborhood socialites. Enter the double door foyer, THEN a second set of French doors, to the hallway and Marvel at the original woodwork and architecture that shouts Philadelphia History at its peak. Notice the high ceilings, original hard wood, banister, and millwork that is often imitated but rarely duplicated. Picture a Parlor room, Living Room, and Dining room as 3 separate spaces or one huge architectural masterpiece with matching ceiling fans throughout. You'll also love the large coat/storage closet as your bonus. Near the end of the dining room, you can access your 2nd staircase, or "Servant Stairs". Once you enter the spacious kitchen, you'll see floor to ceiling cabinets and additional upgraded cabinetry to match the decor. There are two exit doors leading to the side and rear yards that equal 5000 plus square feet of yard space. Your new Sanctuary next to your new Oasis! Upstairs you'll find four (4) sizeable bedrooms and one full bathroom with an elegant vanity. This house offers a lot of authentic features including multiple vintage closets. This haven is just a short walk to multiple public transportation lines including the bus and Market- Frankford El (elevated line) at 63rd and Market; taking you to center city or the trains to the surrounding areas. Less than 2 miles from Montgomery County, City Ave and St. Joseph University. Minutes away from shopping and dining and Route 1. Six blocks from the Historic Cobbs Creek Park (with a 3 mile runners trail) and nearby ice skating rink is just minutes from UPENN, CHOP, Drexel and SEPTA. Route 476 & I-95 not a problem.
