A low-traffic block just off Delaware Ave leads to the building's towering brick facade. Unit #1 has a private street entry that opens to the bright and airy main level. Wide-plank floors stretch across the large living room, with a built-in electric fireplace and a feature wall adding character. The gleaming kitchen is fitted with high-end stainless steel appliances, white shaker-style cabinets, granite counters, a tile backsplash, and extra space for a table or storage cart with seating. A sleek full bathroom completes this level. Upstairs, there's a bright spacious bedroom with a fireplace and generous closets.

A breezeway on the side of the building leads to an expansive rear yard that's sure to be a popular spot to hang out on good weather days. From here, there's an entrance to Unit #2. A flight of stairs leads to this apartment's modern, sunlit kitchen and a full bathroom that also has the laundry. On the upper level, there's a large living room with bright windows and an exposed brick wall at the front, along with a bedroom at the rear. 245 E Allen St's sought-after Fishtown location is a short stroll from the top-rated restaurants, friendly shops, and lively entertainment that line Frankford Ave and Girard Ave. It's also close to sprawling Penn Treaty Park and Rivers Casino along the waterfront.
