Description

This sweet rowhome on a lovely side street dotted with trees is a quintessential LoMo charmer, beginning at the facade with decorative cornice, keystone arches, and original marble facing and steps. The main floor has an extra-wide marble-capped pony wall at the entrance, which defines the space while contributing to the home's open and airy vibe. The living/dining room features original oak floors with walnut inlay and a coffered ceiling and is bathed in light from the front windows and, thanks to an extra-wide doorway, the kitchen’s sliders at the rear. The kitchen is not fancy but is 100 percent usable with its freshly painted white solid-wood cabinets, charming beadboard backsplash and new LVP flooring; the generous, well-laid out footprint makes for an easy full reno down the road–no need to move water or gas lines. There’s great outdoor space out back with a wood privacy fence and a large raised gardening bed plus plenty of room left over for patio furniture. Upstairs the high ceilings, great natural light and original pine floors keep the charm going throughout the bedrooms, both with decent sized closets. The unusually spacious bathroom has a cute green and white octagon floor tile, the original cast iron tub, a good-sized louvered window and two (yes, two!) large linen closets. There’s another closet in the hallway up here, plus laundry hookups and more storage in the spacious basement. The great location is walking distance to neighborhood faves like Los Gallos, Frida Cantina, Bomb Bomb Bar and Antonio’s, and of course convenient to Broad St, Passyunk Ave, the stadiums and FDR Park.
