Welcome to this beautifully renovated home in the desirable East Passyunk Crossing neighborhood of South Philadelphia. From top to bottom, inside and out, this home has been rehabbed with top quality finishes that do not disappoint! Enter into the bright and spacious living/dining room combination featuring gorgeous wide plank wood floors, recessed lighting, and a stylish exposed brick wall. The kitchen has navy blue and white cabinets, gold hardware and fixtures, beautiful quartz counters, subway tile backsplash, upgraded appliances including a counter depth French door refrigerator, and an island with counter seating for two. You’ll also find an adorable navy blue and gold half bathroom on this level, a convenience you never knew you needed! Off the kitchen is a private patio, the perfect space for grilling, testing out your green thumb, or just relaxing in the sun/shade. Back inside, a beautiful wooden staircase with custom metal railing leads you to the 2nd floor where you’ll find more exposed brick, two bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms. The primary bedroom is staged with a queen canopy bed to show off the size of the room. For added convenience, this bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom and two large closets. The second bedroom is also large enough for a queen size bed, 2 bedside tables, an office area, and double closet… and if you know South Philly at all, then you know how rare it is to find a house with TWO good sized bedrooms! The guest bathroom in this home is a show stopper with a custom double sink vanity and matching mirror made from reclaimed wood. There is space in the hall bathroom for built-in shelves or a free standing shelving unit, great for linens/toiletry storage. Don’t forget the finished basement, adding another few hundred square feet of living space to the home... your future man cave, lady lair, family room, playroom, home gym, or office! The basement has recessed lighting, new industrial style concrete floors, laundry area, and a separate unfinished mechanical room for additional storage. This home literally has it all… new stylish black windows, new heating and central air, roof, electric, PEX plumbing, spray foam insulation, matte black hardware, gold accents, rear addition, and pending 10 year tax abatement. All of this plus it’s only 1.5 blocks away from the subway (think stadiums, trips into Center City...) and a block away from the endless restaurants, shops, bakeries, gyms, and fun on East Passyunk Ave. Seriously, what more could you ask for?! Check out this home today, you won’t be disappointed. (Seller is a licensed PA Realtor)

"I live in this neighborhood, and with the commercial offerings along Passyunk, a grocery store and many smaller mom and pop stores, as well as drugstore chain within walking distance, life here is easy. Neighbors are multicultural which adds to the flavor of the community; parents who walk children to and from school, passersby who say hello, tree-lined streets, make this area feel welcoming and safe. Parking is generally easy and worry-free; unless you have a white panel van, which will garner graffitti quickly!"
