Welcome to this super cute gem that sits in the middle of a short, quiet block of row homes in Port Richmond. This property has been meticulously kept and well loved by the owner. Inside the house boasts hardwood floors throughout, an updated kitchen and bathroom and one bedroom that has been converted into an incredible walk in closet. It also has a fenced in outdoor space for entertaining that you might describe as something your neighbors would envy. There is an upper deck off of the second floor that has access from the first floor as well. There is also a first floor deck off of the kitchen that walks you off to a concrete paver area. Just north of Fishtown, this area is home to some of the best local food staples in the area including Tacconelli’s Pizza, Stocks Bakery, Byrnes Tavern, the Dinner House and Mary’s Luncheonette to name a few. A short walk to multiple public transportation routes and an approximately 15-20 drive to most things Philly or South Jersey. The local Aramingo Avenue shopping district is just a short walk for all of your shopping needs. This is a perfect starter home for a first time home buyer or for someone looking to downsize just a tad.

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.
