About This Home

As of June 2022

Fabulous Fishtown! 1642 E Berks is the home you have been waiting for! This stunning property offers all of the charm and character you want with all of the space and convenience you need in the perfect central location close to all the neighborhood shops, restaurants, and cafes as well as easy access to public transportation. Admire the stately facade before entering through the tiled vestibule into the sun splashed, open and inviting first floor, where you can immediately feel this size of the 18x81 lot foorprint. This space is framed by generous ceiling heights and original, refinished hardwood floors (that run throughout the entire property!) Walk back through the updated kitchen with expansive granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry for additional storage. At the rear of the first floor is a half bath and the exterior access to the incredible rear yard space. You'll want to live in this lush and inviting oasis, complete with covered patio and your own flowering plum tree. Head upstairs to find a large full, 3 piece bath along with two bedrooms, the front one offering incredible space and a full wall of closets. Top floor offers 2 more well sized bedrooms with ample closets. The home has been meticulously maintained and tastefully updated throughout while keeping an eye for original detail, all of the windows have been replaced, and a ductless minisplit system has been added for a/c. The location is just perfect- 2 blocks from the Berks st. El stop, and just a quick walk from anywhere in the neighborhood you would want to go. This kind of Fishtown property unicorn does not come along often, grab it before it disappears.
