The open front porch overlooks the garden and its slim magnolia tree. Through the traditional entry vestibule, step into the open living room with a decorative fireplace and the original Victorian staircase. The full dining room has a second decorative fireplace with distinctive tile and a mirrored overmantle. The kitchen is ready for an update, but don't miss the older Vulcan 6 burner range. Out back, a rear deck overlooks the fenced yard. Upstairs on second floor, a large rear family room or bedroom has another handsome fireplace mantle, bookshelves, a window seat and more Victorian trim. Two more bedrooms - one with a gorgeous built-in natural wood armoire - and a bath complete this floor. The third floor is a suite with a bedroom, walk-in closet & bath. Original features include natural woodwork, hardwood floors and plaster moldings. The basement is a semi-finished space for workshop and play areas.
Regent is a sleepy little one-block street, even though it's just 2 blocks from the University of the Sciences. At its 45th St end is beloved Clark Park, known for its childrens' play areas, chess players, youth soccer, weekly farmers market, flea markets, the Spruce Hill May Fair, Shakespeare in the Park, occasional Philadelphia Orchestra concerts, and the annual February Charles Dickens birthday party - complete with folk-dancing, bag-piping Morris men. If there's a snowstorm, "the bowl" in Clark Park is a prime sledding site.
