Property Description

Beautiful, fully renovated twin on a tree-lined block in the Penn Alexander School Catchment. 10-year tax abatement (through 2034). This 6-bedroom, 3.5-bath home is one of only several homes on the block with an original turret topped by a “witch’s hat.” The home has been fully renovated with a gorgeous kitchen and all-new bathrooms, new windows, updated electric, and new plumbing and HVAC, plus a full perimeter French drain in the basement and new floors on the first floor. While it is sleek and modern, it also retains original features, including original flooring on the second (with inlaid detail) and third floors. There are 9½' ceilings and some original moldings as well. Outdoor space includes a front yard, a lovely covered front porch, a generous grass rear yard, and additional space along the south side between the twin homes. The first-floor plan is open, with a large living and dining area flowing into the kitchen with eating bar (white cabinetry, stainless appliances, and quartz counters). Also included in the living room is a 72-inch Samsung Frame TV that presents as a piece of art but functions as a high-definition television. There is a half bath, a large laundry room, and a room-sized pantry/storage space. The 2nd floor has three bedrooms and two baths (including the en-suite primary), and the 3rd floor has three bedrooms (or two plus a family room) and a full bath. Located on a wonderful tree-lined block in the Penn Alexander Catchment. An ideal location—easy walk to Clark Park and its Farmers’ Market, Baltimore Avenue’s restaurant row, Cleo Bagel, Carbon Copy, Knockbox Cafe, ReAnimator Coffee, University City Swim Club, Penn Alexander School, Don Barriga Mexican Grill, Doro Bet, Gojjo, Clarkville, Green Line, TacoTaco Mexican, Local 44 and the Bottle Shop, CVS, and many coffee shops, restaurants, and shopping options. Close to HUP, CHOP, Penn, Drexel, the University City tech/science corridor, and approximately 12 minutes to Center City by car or bike, with multiple convenient SEPTA options. Note: 47th Street is now a one way street.
