Straight Thru

Space abounds in this charming South Philly home, where much of the original character has been preserved. You’ll enter into the tiled vestibule and through the interior door into the spacious living room. The large windows flood the room with light, but the first thing you’ll notice is the architectural detail in the stunning archway, with its brilliant woodwork and vintage glass. Both of the front rooms have the original hardwood floors with inlay and high baseboards, and the dining room has built-in shelving. In the kitchen, you’ll find ample oak cabinetry, stainless appliances and a long center island with bar seating at the end. There’s a new addition on the back of the house that provides a mudroom, powder room with modern vanity & fixtures, and proper pantry shelves. The main living level has 2 mini-split units for central cooling in the summer. Upstairs, each of the 3 well-sized bedrooms also has its own mini-split, and it’s important to note that all of these mini-splits can heat or cool, which is useful to do selective heating/cooling in various seasons. The primary bedroom also has a ceiling fan and built-in shelving, and adjoins to the middle bedroom, where there is a plumbing access panel if you would like to create an upstairs laundry room. (The current owners did this!) The hall bath has a tiled shower/tub combo, with additional storage and shelving added for all of your linens and toiletries. Outside, the oversized back yard/patio is fantastic for pets, or entertaining, and even has a gate to the alley. This home sits on a main street without a bus route, but still has convenient access to to the 2 bus, 17 bus and subway. New roof in 2025 with a 10-year transferrable warranty. Updated electric service in 2025, with all knob & tube wiring removed from the home. Double-pane vinyl replacement windows throughout. Freshly painted and ready for its new owner!
