Check out this classic rowhome with curb appeal and South Philly style! From the moment you walk up the marble front steps and through the front door, you'll see the hardwood floors, exposed brick, pristine staircase and hand-crafted railing and immediately begin to appreciate the character evident throughout the home. The large opening to the kitchen provides a very desirable open feel from the front of the home to the back. The spacious eat-in kitchen allows plenty of room for a breakfast table or sprucing up with an island or kitchen cart. The 2nd floor also has hardwood floors throughout, a large bathroom, and two full-sized bedrooms. The master bedroom is south-facing and gets amazing natural light, which the current owners are capitalizing on and utilizing as a bright home office. The second bedroom is plenty large enough for a queen bed and does have a full-sized closet. And if that's not enough, there's additional living space in the finished basement with built-in bench seating and a powder room. In the rear of the basement is also where you'll find the separate laundry room and additional storage. Once you visit this block it will be easy to see why the location has a WalkScore of 97(!) with everything you'll need right at your doorstep. It's only a 7 or 8 minute walk to Passyunk Avenue. .. and local gems like Los Gallos Mexican Taqueria and amazing bakeries like New York Bakery and Amigo's Bakery are even closer!
