Property Description
Situated in the middle of a lovely tree-lined block, this porchfront home with great curb appeal just doesn’t miss: It’s got a spacious open layout with just the right balance of original charm and contemporary updates, a dream kitchen, numerous handsome bathrooms, a primary suite, amazing natural light and great outdoor space. Through a charming penny-tiled vestibule entrance with original wainscoting and leaded glass transom is the open-plan main living space with impressive features and finishes that run throughout-oak floors, ample large windows and high ceilings with recessed lighting. Past the lovely turned staircase with original millwork is the nicely appointed kitchen, where white Shaker-style cabinets, white quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, and sleek stainless steel Samsung appliances including a slide-in range with pot filler and French door refrigerator with chill drawer, face a large center island with a regal blue cabinets and breakfast bar. A powder room is tucked right off the kitchen and dining area. Upstairs, the rear primary bedroom features its own en-suite bath with extra-wide walk-in shower with inlaid tile accent, large window and quartz-topped vanity. The front bedroom offers a gorgeous bay window and double-wide closet, and the two middle rooms are both nicely sized and get good natural light. The hall bath on this level has the same stylish finishes as the primary, with a soaking tub in place of the walk-in shower. Additional hangout or guest space is found in the finished basement, which has a separate laundry room and another full bath as well as exterior access. The large rear yard has both a low-maintenance patio for furniture and enough greenspace for a small lawn or a real-deal garden. Located just blocks from Cedar Park and even closer to the Kingsessing Rec Center and Library grounds (currently undergoing a $7M renovation via the city’s Rebuild program), this home is on a quiet little side street in an ideal West Philly location.
