Property Description
Come see this solid, move-in ready property that checks off all your boxes including recent updates such as replacement windows and central air, while featuring original details that offer the character and charm that you have been looking for in your next home. The house sits well back from Cheltenham Road, which offers both privacy, and plenty of additional parking, for you and your guests. Upon entering the front door through the stone and brick facade, you will pass a handy coat closet before stepping into a spacious living room featuring newly refinished solid oak floors, an original stair case with a beautiful railing of mid-century modern design, plenty of natural light, and a large archway which opens to the gracious dining room. Off the dining room is a highly functional kitchen with warm wood cabinets, a newly purchased range, and ample counter space flanking the stainless steel sink. The opposite end of the kitchen offers possibilities for expanded work surfaces such as counters and a butcher block, or could be used as a breakfast room for an eat-in kitchen. Up the oak staircase you will find 3 Bedrooms, two with south facing windows providing plenty of direct sunlight, and a spacious owners bedroom with a pair of good sized windows overlooking the front lawn, ample closet space, and an ensuite bathroom with original tile and stainless steel and glass fronted shower. On the lowest level, the walk out basement is a great feature. It offers the opportunity to be used as a media room, a play room, or a workshop. The paneled walls match well with the original stair railing, and this level has a convenient powder room in one corner. Adjacent to the garage in the rear of the basement is a hallway where you will find a recently updated HVAC system, a recently purchased hot water heater, room for storage, as well as a good washer and dryer set. At the end of the hallway is a door to the rear of the house where you will find a space for a 2nd car to park behind the garage. Across the shared driveway that runs parallel to Cheltenham down the length of the lot, is a fenced plot of land that is included with this property. Currently a grassy plot that would be great for relaxing or play, this yard offers potential to be converted into a garden, a paved court, or additional parking. Overall, this well maintained property offers great value in an increasingly tight real estate market. The convenient location is about equal distance to I- 95 and I-76, and also offers a straight shot down N 2nd to Center City. Not to be overlooked is the value of having close access to Tacony Creek Park. This is a best in its class property you don't want to miss.
