Welcome home to this lovely 4 bedroom and 2.5 bath white brick rowhome in the heart of Olde Kensington. Tucked into a beautiful, tree-lined street just west of American St., you will find an expansive home with modern comforts and effortless style. The property was fully rehabbed in 2018-2019. Enter into the main living floor with open-concept living, dining, and kitchen with island (included in the sale!) The kitchen is timeless with white shaker cabinets, quartz counters, and marble tile backsplash. In the rear of the home is a large private patio with furniture included. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms and a spacious hall bathroom. The rear bedrooms of the home are larger (measuring 130"x116") and can easily fit a king bed. The third floor has the same layout as the second with a larger full bathroom. An industrious owner could easily transform the whole floor into a primary suite but if a renovation isn't in your future, the home's layout is perfectly set up to bring in a roommate or two to help pay off that mortgage!! A second outdoor space awaits on the roof showcasing sprawling city views. The basement is finished with a half bath. This stunning home sits in the heart of Olde Kensington with easy access into Fishtown but don't sleep on what the neighborhood has to offer including, Reanimator Coffee, Human Robot, Laser Wolf, Punch Buggy Brewing, Crane Arts, the Clay Studio, Provenance and so much more. Proximity to the Market-Frankford Line and the 15 trolley makes commuting anywhere in the city a dream.
