Welcome home to 127 Reed Street, a classic Philadelphia rowhouse on a wonderful Northern Pennsport block and right around the corner from multiple green spaces and retail stores! An entryway vestibule greets upon entry into the home's open entertaining space. The front living room and adjoining dining area enjoy wonderful daylight from the two front windows on this floor, and the original hardwood flooring is entirely charming. The dining room is situated next to the windowed kitchen, which features wooden cabinetry, black appliances including a gas range, ample cabinet space, and a door leading to the back patio. The patio is the perfect space to catch up with friends over a drink or tend to your at-home garden! Back inside, a wooden winder staircase leads to the second level. Here, the same charming hardwood flooring occupies both the primary bedroom at the front of the house and the spacious bonus room. The front bedroom benefits from two windows, built-in shelves, and a closet. A spacious second room with a closet is positioned next to the primary bedroom; this space is ideal for an at-home office, nursery, guest quarters, or a fitness space. The second floor is complete with a large and sunny bathroom, outfitted with tile flooring, a tub/shower enclosure, a vanity with a mirror, and a side "nook" where a linen cabinet could be placed. Downstairs, the basement serves as the mechanical and utility hub of the house; the washer and dryer are housed here, and there is storage space for days! Grab a morning coffee at Herman's or Grindcore House, catch up with friends at Dickinson Square Park, zip over to Giant or ACME for groceries, and settle in to this centrally located home. We look forward to showing you around!
