Charming Powelton Village is a lovely sought after tree lined neighborhood in West Philly. This huge 2-unit duplex has been lovingly cared for by the current owner, now ready to entrust it to its next custodians(s). Before entering the home, watch the world go by from your quaint front porch. The current owner revealed it to the world and fresh open air as it had been enclosed by a prior owner. Walk up the stairs to the upper unit or cruise on up via the handy chair lift. The 2nd and 3rd floors of the home encapsulate the massive owners unit. Large windows and skylights create a radiant light-filled space. Mini-splits in this unit provide cooling air and bonus heat while ceiling fans throughout this home keep air circulating wonderfully. The great room is truly great with hardwood floors, a decorative plug-in fireplace with a gorgeous marble mantle, and a door that leads directly onto your lovely 2nd level deck. Peaceful outdoor relaxation is just a door away. Or for even more tranquility make your way down the beautifully painted stairs to the tucked away back patio. Trees and greenery abound in this lovely space with a unique stone and brick patterned design that is a delight to admire. Back upstairs a clever arched ceiling invites you into your enormous kitchen with an abundance of cupboards, counter space with newer stainless steel appliances. Guests and family members can pull up to the counter-bar area and converse with the chef du jour while the next meal or baked treat is being created. Head towards the front of the home where you'll find the large first full bathroom with a gorgeous wooden vanity. On up a few steps and you'll find the first bedroom with more glorious hardwood floors, a closet, ceiling fan and an ensuite bathroom equipped with the cutest little bathtub you may ever see. The huge 2nd bedroom at the front of the home can be entered via a shared door between bedrooms or a separate door via the home's hallway. Note the lovely crown and baseboard moldings. This giant room was used as a library by the current owner. Two big windows bring in abundant light. An arched wall feature highlights a cute window that separates two built-ins with shelves for books and collectibles. On the opposite wall is a nice size closet. Head back to the hall and up the steps by foot or chair lift and admire the big skylight offering yes, even more light. Bedroom #3 in the back of the home has been a primary suite in the trees. It is creatively painted and has a big ensuite bathroom. Head towards the front of the home for bedrooms 4 and 5. Bedroom 4 was a playroom for the grandchildren. A large closet in bedroom 4 has been transformed into an uber convenient laundry space. The washer and dryer will remain. Enter massive bedroom #5 enveloped with fantastic maroon painted walls. This room was most recently used as a large office and has another big closet. The first floor 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment has been used for many years as a rental. Live upstairs and rent this unit to help cover a chunk of your monthly mortgage and/or expenses. Or live here and rent out the giant unit upstairs. This first floor spacious flat has more glorious hardwood floors, great room built-ins, a big country kitchen, a front bedroom with giant windows, a decorative marble fireplace mantel, big closets and a back bedroom with direct patio access. Separate laundry for this unit can be found in the big full length of the house basement. Storage space abounds. Maintained and/or updated mechanicals are here including two gas hot water heaters less than three years old. The two units have separate mechanicals as well as separate heat and electric service. Radiator heat brings comfortable heat in the winter. Mini-splits in the upper unit supplement this and were added for convenience. The home is being sold As-Is and is priced accordingly.
