Make this quiet street in South Philly your new home! Walk into an open and bright living area with hardwood floors. Walking towards the back of the house you'll find a half bath and kitchen. The kitchen has granite countertops and built in shelving! While in the kitchen, you'll be able to catch a fresh breeze from your backyard coming in through the door and windows. This perfectly sized backyard is ideal for gardening, pets, and soaking up the sun! Moving upstairs, you'll find two nicely sized bedrooms and a full bathroom. Both bedrooms have ceiling fans and beautiful hardwood floors! This isn't your normal tiny two bedroom house! Everything is in great shape and modern looking. Need more storage? No problem! The unfinished basement spans the length of the house! Washer and dryer live down here and gives you the opportunity to create a beautiful laundry area in the basement! Walking distance to Target, Home Depot, Fine Wine and Good Spirits and Acme plus neighborhood restaurants and bars! This is the perfect slice of South Philly.

Residential Single-Family Attached-5
The RSA, Residential Single-Family Attached districts are primarily intended to accommodate attached and semi-detached houses on individual lots, but may be applied in areas characterized by a mix of housing types, including detached houses. The districts are also intended to provide a density transition between RSD districts and RM districts. The Zoning Code includes five RSA districts that are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements.
