Description

Brand new Rubber Roof just installed with a 12 year warranty!
Welcome to 5237 Sylvester Street, one of the larger row homes in the neighborhood, offering three bedrooms, one-and-a-half baths, an updated interior, finished lower level, flexible living space, outdoor living, and the added convenience of off-street parking.
Hardwood floors and neutral finishes greet you as you enter the spacious living room, which flows through a wide arched opening into the dining area, creating an open and connected feel throughout the main level.
The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplash, ample cabinetry, and a breakfast bar overlooking
the dining area.
Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms with hardwood flooring, along with a recently remodeled, tiled full hall bathroom featuring a shower/tub combination.
The finished lower level adds even more usable space and includes a half bathroom, separate laundry area, and additional flex space created from the former garage. Whether used as a family room, recreation area, home office, workout space, or a combination of uses, this level gives you valuable flexibility to make the space work for you.
Outside, a large elevated rear deck provides additional space to enjoy, while the fenced rear yard and off-street driveway parking add even more functionality.
When it comes to the surrounding area, three nearby favorites include Frankford Playground, the Frankford Transportation Center at Bridge & Pratt for convenient SEPTA access, and the shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences around Harbison Avenue and Roosevelt Boulevard.
With three bedrooms, one-and-a-half baths, a recently remodeled bathroom, finished lower level with additional flex space, rear deck, fenced yard, and off-street parking, 5237 Sylvester Street offers plenty of space and flexibility, both inside and out.
