You are greeted by a spacious front patio and sloping garden as you arrive home to this 3 bed/2 bath home featuring an open concept first floor with new kitchen (2022) and newer appliances (2022). The sunny front porch allows for extra storage and a bright space for morning coffee, crafting, or other projects. Upstairs has 3 bedrooms including a large primary bedroom with large windows and plenty of room for a king-sized bed. The hardwood floors add charm to this lovely home leading to 2 more upper floor bedrooms and a shared hall bath. The right hand bedroom is large enough for a twin or bunkbed and the left hand bedroom can fit a full or queen-sized bed or bunk beds with work/play area. The partially finished basement incorporates laundry, storage, mechanicals and an additional sleeping area complete with its own bathroom and stall shower. This property also has a garage! Although the steep incline at the garage entrance is difficult for some vehicles, the garage is perfect for additional storage of bikes, equipment, toys and other items. Your car can be parked either on the street or in the alleyway behind your new home. Close to Drexel, U Penn and just right for students or anyone working in West Philly or University City. Owners have enjoyed this home for 16 years and hope you will make it yours. (This property was T/O market while the move out and a little "zhuzhing-up" was done).
