Welcome to the home you imagined! This house has 2566 square feet with six bedrooms, four bathrooms and drenched in sunlight. The front porch wraps around stone walls to the front door. Stepping into the entryway and living room you can see all the way to the visible yet distinct kitchen area urging you to step inside as though the house is saying "welcome home." The dining area is unexpectedly large. The kitchen has a bar, island, counterspace, gas cooktop, double ovens, below counter microwave as well as well designed cabinets. The first floor is complete with a pantry area and first floor full bath. Stairs in the rear of the house lead to a large basement perfect for storage and many hobby activities. The second floor has three sizable bedrooms including the primary suite. The primary suite has built-in shelving, large walk-in closet, and ensuite bathroom. You also get second floor laundry! The home continues on the third floor with another full bath and three bedrooms creating enormous opportunities for flexible use. The home is over 100 years old and provides the classic Philadelphia home feel and look while also having ample closet space as well as central heat and air. The backyard of this home is a dream for gardeners or those who love just a bit more outdoor space than your typical Philadelphia home. Make this your new home! Please note, the two adjacent lots which are not owned by the seller and are not part of this sale. All measurements are estimates and floorplans are approximated based upon video capture.
