Property Description
Welcome to 1519 Emily Street, perfectly situated in a highly desirable, walkable South Philadelphia neighborhood. Enter this charming residence into the living room, featuring a large street-facing window that fills the space with natural light. The floor plan provides a seamless flow from the living room through the dining area and directly into the functional kitchen. The kitchen comes fully equipped with essential appliances, including a range/oven, and refrigerator. Off the kitchen at the back of the house is the private patio. Small but mighty, this space is perfect for a cafe table so you can enjoy a meal, a small urban garden of your choosing, or a retreat for your pet. The basement is unfinished and houses the laundry. Utilize the space for all of your additional storage needs. The upper level is dedicated to the two bedrooms and full bathroom. The spacious bathroom is at the top of the steps and has a tub/shower. The first bedroom is the smaller of the two but easily fits a bed and desk and has closet space. The front bedroom is the larger of the two, has ample closet space, and windows facing South for plenty of sunshine. There is also a hall closet for additional storage. Located just a block from Broad Street, you are steps away from popular local destinations like Melrose Diner, Second District Brewing Co., Vegan Commissary, Starbucks, Station Bar & Grill, and The Thirsty Soul, among much more! Commuting is a breeze with the conveniently close Snyder Station for the Broad Street Line (BSL), offering easy access to anywhere in the city.
