Eclectic 3 bedroom plus family room, 1.5 bath home in the heart of the Penn Alexander Catchment. Very deep lot includes a spacious and serene, beautiful rear patio and garden. High ceilings, hardwood floors, character and great space. Just add your finishing touches or do a more thorough renovation. Enter past the small front yard to the vestibule entry. Big living room and dining room with high ceilings and original oak floors with inlaid walnut detail. Eat-in kitchen overlooking the absolutely lovely, landscaped rear yard. Half bath. Washer and Dryer. 2nd floor offers a large family room with built-ins, original mantle, and multiple windows on 2 exposures, including south-facing overlooking the garden. Large bedroom with exposed brick, closet and built-ins. 2nd room has since been opened up as an office or sitting area (with a walk-in cedar closet). It could be re-delineated as a nursery or small bedroom. The 3rd bedroom floor is a big open space (that currently has some separation with removable sliding doors). Perfect for a bedroom and a family room or add a bath and create a phenomenal bedroom suite. New glass sliders to a deck-ready roof. Walk to Clark Park and its Farmers Market, Coffee Market, Green Line Cafe, Local 44 and Bottle Shop, Pop Shop, Honest Tom's Tacos, Milk & Honey, Marigold Kitchen, Clarkville (coming Fall 2015), Baltimore Avenue's Restaurant Row and so much more.

Less than 1 block to the Penn Alexander School. 10 minutes to Rittenhouse Square by car or bike and plenty of convenient SEPTA options. Tremendous opportunity in the Penn Alexander Catchment (Three years in a row, all Kindergarten registrants offered spots. For 2015-2016, there was no Lottery. All registrants have spots).
