Property Description
Welcome to this lovely, bright, and spacious freshly painted twin home in Tacony-featuring the only private two-car driveway on the block for unbeatable off-street parking! Enter from the charming covered front porch into an inviting open-concept floor plan filled with natural light and gleaming hardwood floors. The living room flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, which opens to the updated kitchen complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, and ample cabinet space. Tucked away at the rear of the home is a convenient laundry room and half bath. From here, access the rear deck overlooking a large, private, fully fenced backyard with a storage shed and direct access to the driveway-perfect for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or pets. Choose between two staircases-one from the living room and one from the kitchen-to reach the second level. Here you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious front primary bedroom accented by a lovely bay window. The two secondary bedrooms also enjoy abundant natural light, and all share a well-appointed full hall bathroom. The full attic offers excellent storage and the potential to be finished into a fourth bedroom, home office, playroom, or anything you need. A full basement with built-ins provides even more storage or the opportunity to create additional living space. Located close to public transportation, shopping, and major roadways, this home combines comfort, convenience, and charm. Don't miss your chance to make it yours! Mortgage savings may be available for buyers of this listing.
