Welcome home to this beautiful 4 bedroom, 1.5 bath traditional single located on a quiet residential street in the peaceful Somerton neighborhood of Far NE Philadelphia. You'll immediately notice the curb appeal of this home with its covered front porch, new vinyl siding and aluminum flashing, new shutters and expanded 4 car asphalt driveway. Enter the property through the striking front door with leaded glass panels to the large comfortable living room. Take note of the new hardwood flooring that runs throughout most of the first floor and up the stairs to the 2nd floor hall. The living room opens directly into the elegant formal dining room, which has plenty of room for a large table and several chairs for all your holiday and family dinners. From there, pass through the glass panel doorway into the informal breakfast/dining area which has great lighting and room for a family size table and seating. This room also attaches to the kitchen, the rear family room and stairway access to the basement. The galley style kitchen has plenty of wood cabinets and counter space, a pantry closet, a stainless steel sink with an updated sprayer faucet and garbage disposal, a stainless steel side by side refrigerator with water and ice dispenser, an electric cooktop/oven, an above range microwave oven with vent fan and a dishwasher. Separated but attached to the kitchen is the updated laundry room with recently added cabinets and front load washer and electric dryer. There is also access to the half bathroom from this area. The rear family room and rear 1st floor bedroom (currently used as an office) are an addition onto the house and have vaulted ceilings. The bedroom has his and her closets and room for a king size bed. From the rear family room, walk out onto the wood deck overlooking the spacious backyard, where you'll also find the private gazebo enclosure with six person hot tub. There is a concrete side patio area as well, great for your bbq grill and additional seating. The private rear yard has a storage shed and fencing around the perimeter. Head back inside and downstairs to the fully finished basement with tile flooring and utility access. On the 2nd floor you’ll find the full sized updated bathroom off the main hall, the master bedroom and two additional nice size bedrooms. The master bedroom has a walk in closet that currently doubles as a small office area. The A/C, the hot water heater and rear roof shingles are all less than a year old. Much of the interior has been recently painted and has a fresh look throughout. There is a half garage accessed through the front garage door which is downsized for storage of items such as bikes and tools. This home is close to shopping, parks and schools and is just a short drive to all the major highways and bridges in the area. Schedule your appointment to come tour this lovely home today!

Residential Single-Family Detached-3 District
The RSD, Residential Single-Family Detached districts are primarily intended to accommodate detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RSD zoning be applied in areas where the land use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Code includes three RSD districts that are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements.
