Tucked away on a quiet block, that’s filling up with new construction, this great location is just off Frankford Ave between Girard Ave and Delaware Ave. The home’s first level currently features a large living room with a bay window and an eat-in kitchen. On the second level, there’s a full bathroom in the hall and two bedrooms. Out back, there’s a secluded, private patio. Completing the home is a unfinished, clean basement. 147 E Allen St’s lively Fishtown location earns a Walk Score of 91!
