On a peaceful street just a block from the buzz of Frankford Avenue, this classic brick-front row has been well cared for and updated while retaining much of its original charm. Enter into an extra large living space featuring original pumpkin pine floors, ceiling fan, good natural light, and fresh neutral paint. The kitchen is equally spacious, and recently renovated with plenty of shaker-style cabinets, a pantry, white countertops, and fun white tile backsplash. There is plenty of extra space for you to add a coffee bar, additional prep area, or more storage. Beyond this, a separate dining area, and a rear patio with enough space for grillin ’n’ chillin. Upstairs the rustic pine floors continue in the hallway and the 3 light-filled bedrooms, and the full bath has been tastefully updated with a patterned-tile floor, subway tile, and exposed brick accent wall. Washer and dryer are in the basement, which is clean and dry and offers lots of additional storage. This well-maintained home also features central AC and a newer roof: it’s the whole package. And it comes at an affordable price that will still allow you to get out and enjoy everything this fabulous neighborhood has to offer: Post Haste, Picnic, OG Pizza, and Little Walter’s (just to name a few). We welcome your visit!
