This recently remodeled townhouse in Harrisburg offers contemporary, urban living blended with quality1920s architecture. The entire façade has been painted and the front porch refurbished for all the “front porch living” you desire. Once you step from the porch into the living room, the upgrades continue. The new flooring, ambient lighting, and detailed woodwork speaks to the attention given to this space. Moving through the living room and into the dining room, a large open doorway keeps the space airy and breathable for welcoming guests. Adjoining the dining room is the kitchen with modern appliances, loads of storage space, and an island for that quiet cup of coffee you need to start your day. Host friends for a glass of wine or a full holiday feast; the first floor is open, spacious, and perfect for any type of gathering. Walk up the stairs to the 2nd floor and just ahead is the primary bedroom. This room is your personal escape, with beautiful flooring, large windows, and soft lighting. The ensuite bathroom is newly remodeled with step-in shower and beautiful tiling. The second bedroom has large windows, floods of light, and privacy for a guest room or home office. Also on the second floor is a full bathroom with fresh tile, tub and shower, and vanity. A full basement—complete with a half-bath—is primed for transformation as office space, a playroom, or even man cave. This home is incredibly versatile and will meet whatever needs might you have. The fenced in yard, utility garage, and neighborhood playground next door make this is a Harrisburg property worth seeing.
