Straight Thru

Steps away from lively Fairmount Ave, 1813 North St sits nestled on a quiet tree-lined block across from the sprawling grounds of The Spring Gardens Community Garden, making for an idyllic setting in one of Philly's most sought-after neighborhoods. This meticulously maintained 3-story home offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a private patio, a deck, a semi-finished basement, and modern updates throughout. Pride of ownership is on display, starting at the handsome brick facade, enlivened by planter boxes and a blue entry door topped by a transom window. Inside, the living room has a bright and airy feel aided by tall windows and high ceilings trimmed with crown molding. A built-in bookcase and a powder room with distinctive tile floors add character. Hardwood floors extend into an eat-in kitchen with white shaker-style cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, and plenty of space for a table. Out back, the private patio is the ideal outdoor spot for hosting barbecues, dining al fresco, and honing your gardening skills. There's also a secure entry to the back alley with direct access to the street, allowing easy pass-through for bikes and garbage cans. Down on the lower level, you'll find a clean, dry, semi-finished basement that can be used for workouts, hobbies, storage, and laundry. Up on the second level, a sunlit bedroom with hardwood floors is at the front, while another carpeted bedroom is off the hall. At the rear is a gleaming full bathroom adorned with classic inlaid tile floors, dual vanities, beadboard on the walls, and a marble-tiled bath surround. Topping off the home is a third bedroom brightened by windows overlooking the community garden with unobstructed picturesque skyline views. There's also another full bathroom with a glass-enclosed tub and tiled walls. A deck, perfect for relaxing with a morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine, is off the rear.
