Walking up to the property you will notice the large front yard, handsome brick exterior, and will be greeted by the retro style front door. Upon entering the home, you will be hit with tons of natural light, sure to provide a sunny space for all of your plant needs. In the entry way there is an oversized closet for your coats and shoe storage to keep the area nice and tidy. When you walk into the living room, you will notice the extra wide space and beautiful hardwood floors that lead you into the kitchen and eating space. The space is open and flowing while still maintaining separated rooms. Heading into the kitchen you will find solid wood cabinets, new stainless steel appliances, and breakfast bar with extra storage. In the dining area there is plenty of space for a large table to host your dinner parties, or you could put on your renovation cap and expand the kitchen into the space to create your dream chef's kitchen. Past the kitchen and dining area you will find a large deck great for your morning coffee and evening BBQ. It overlooks the two assigned parking spaces that come with the property, as well as the back yard across the way, ideal for spring and summer hangs with your animals and your best veggie garden. Heading back inside and down to the basement you will find a room fit to be a woodworking workshop, a half bathroom, and a laundry area with new machines. There is also access to the garage that is currently used as a glassblowing and hobby storage room, but you can open it back up and fit a car in there, or keep it closed and use it for your own hobby room and extra storage space. Up on the second floor, there are three bedrooms with great closet space and hardwood floors throughout. The bathroom was updated in 2020, and has a skylight to bring in more natural light to the space. One of the best things about this property is the location! It’s a half a block away from Ridge Ave and Kendrick Park and Recreation Center, as well as blocks away from a few Wissahickon Trail heads, for great hikes! So if the backyard isn’t enough green space, you have options. There are also a ton of great restaurants and shops close by like White Yak, Delasandro’s Steaks, Chubby’s Steaks, The Pierogie Kitchen, Yiro Yiro, Ichiban Chinese and Japanese, Bob’s Diner, New Ridge Brewing Company, and many more. It’s also located close to Henry Ave for easy travel to nearby neighborhoods, and a 5 minute drive to the Manyunk train station for an easy commute downtown. Schedule your showing today to check out this charming place, you won’t want to miss it!
