About 1543 S Bailey St

Welcome to this fully rehabbed Grays Ferry home with original brick front with keystone window headers! This property was completely rehabbed in 2021 and boast THREE full bathrooms, two full bedrooms, and a tall finished basement. Enter in to the sunny first floor, with large window and open floor plan. At the front you'll find the living room and dining area and to the rear is a kitchen with white Shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. To the rear is a large yard- perfect for barbecues, pets, or gardening- and downstairs is a fully finished basement with a full bathroom and laundry. The basement would make a great place for a guest room, gym, and/or office! On the second floor, you'll find a rear bedroom, a full hall bathroom, and primary suite at the front with an additional en suite bathroom. This would be an optimal situation for those looking for a rental property or an owner occupant looking to build equity by having roommates, as each bedroom has its own bath.
