The neighborhood is very walkable and bikeable, with groceries, restaurants, parks, and other amenities within easy walking distance. Center City and other Philadelphia neighborhoods are easily accessible by transit, with short walks to the Market Frankford El, trolleys, and buses.

Enter onto the classic West Philly front porch where you’ll notice the gorgeous facade, and large windows. The front vestibule is separated from the living space by a tempered glass door into the large living room. The living room features high ceilings, original wood floors, and a gas fireplace. The bright dining room with recessed lighting has plenty of space for a dining room table large enough for the entire family. A powder room is conveniently located on the first floor.

As you proceed to the back of the home, you’ll find the eat-in kitchen with bamboo floors and plenty of counter space. The back door will lead you to your fenced-in private deck with garden views, which is perfect for entertaining. There’s plenty of space for outdoor furniture and a grill!

Take the stairs to the 2nd floor, where you’ll find a master bedroom, a two-room bedroom suite, and a full bath. The bedrooms feature large windows that allow for abundant natural light. There is a large center archway and walk-in closet space in the master bedroom. The front bedroom suite features an original, wood built-in dresser and closet.

The water heater and furnace are brand new, having been replaced within the past year. The home has also had foam insulation blown into the existing walls, which reduces energy bills and keeps the temperature more comfortable, year round.
