About This Home
As of June 2022This is a great opportunity to purchase a property right in the heart of the Pennsport neighborhood. This house is exactly one of those houses where you can absolutely move right in and then start your projects room by room while living there. If you're looking for something to buy at a bargain price and then design and remodel yourself to your liking, then this is just perfect. On a very pretty street. At this location, it is just one block away from the Dickinson Square Park on Moyamensing Ave. And there is so much more that you can walk to and enjoy from this location. New Construction projects are right in this area. Enter the home into a large living room and dining room open combination. Steps are on the side which helps to make this a very large room. Then into the kitchen. It is on the small side but it is still equipped with lots of cabinet space and room for a small table. Then out back there is a very cute yard that has enough space for table, chairs, and grilling. Some yards don't offer this! There is also a breezeway that is great for bikes, trash, and etc. Upstairs there are 2 generous sized bedrooms that are in pretty nice condition. The hall bathroom is nice and has had some recent touch ups done to it. Theres more! The basement I would consider it finished. Its very nice with finished walls, ceilings, and lighting. Lots of basements in this area are a little rough. So this is really a huge bonus. The concrete floor looks to be in very good shape too. All in all, this is a great place that someone could put a little work into on whatever time frame they want and make this a true gem. Seller is selling strictly as is.
