Enter through the vestibule with an original vintage glass door to a wide open floor plan. The hand-carved ceiling beam separates the space into two rooms. Recessed lighting and Modern Fan Company ceiling fans throughout the home. The large, sunny kitchen boasts the original metal cabinets, cast iron sink and countertops. Including an impeccably maintained vintage Caloric cast iron oven. New pine wood wainscoting throughout. The perfect entertaining kitchen. Follow the exposed brick to second floor. The refurbished claw foot tube and large glass stand alone shower allow the luxury to soak or stand for bathing. The main bedroom has a very large walk in closet and 12 foot ceilings. The second bedroom is sun filled and can easily become an office space, guest bedroom or nursery. The back patio has the Southern light exposure. Currently, the fencing is laden with morning glories for privacy. A huge plus is the home's proximity to Passyunk Square. Head North three blocks and you are right on the vibrant avenue. A quick walk to Rival Bros Coffee, Barcelona Restaurant and many more delicious restaurants and eclectic shops. A new roof installed in 2019 with a roof warranty and new plumbing and electric throughout the house. This beautiful home is really special.
