Beautifully maintained, this home offers two inviting outdoor spaces—a large backyard patio perfect for entertaining and a roof deck with a custom mural and sweeping views of Philadelphia. Inside, the bright living room boasts high ceilings, recessed lighting, a decorative marble fireplace, and newly installed solid oak hardwood floors that extend throughout the first and second floors. The dining area flows into a charming kitchen with stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, a lovely tin ceiling, and access to the backyard patio. There is a half bath off the dining room for convenience. On the second floor, you'll find a spacious primary bedroom with two new closets, a second bedroom, and a large hall bath. The third floor features another large bedroom with a walk-through bonus space, ideal for an office or den, leading out to the roof deck. A large unfinished basement houses the mechanicals of the home and provides abundant storage space as well. Just steps away from the Italian Market, popular eateries like Mish Mish, The Dutch, El Chingon, Triangle Tavern, as well as independent, local retailers along Passyunk Avenue. Also close to big-box shopping and stores on Columbus Boulevard, this home also offers convenient transit options to Center City. A true gem in an unbeatable location—don’t miss out!
