About This Home
As of February 2023Don't miss out on this updated and well-maintained home in Fishtown. This 3-story rowhome has had many upgrades over time including a renovated kitchen, an added bathroom, central air, a new front door, and more. Enter into a large inviting living room that features high ceilings and a charming brick fireplace. Just beyond you'll find a spacious dining area, convenient powder room, and a beautiful modern kitchen with ample storage and prep space. A rear 6' wide sliding glass door provides beautiful natural light, as well as access to a large secluded back patio with room for entertaining and gardening. Back inside and up to the second floor there are 2 large bedrooms with original hardwood floors, just recently refinished. The first bedroom features a fireplace and the second bedroom features a charming exposed beam and wood plank ceiling. A large full bathroom completes this floor. The third floor includes a third spacious bedroom with great views of the Delaware river. The home's partially finished basement provides an additional flex space and includes a full bathroom and laundry area. Located on a quiet block, but in close proximity to all that Fishtown has to offer, this home is a fantastic opportunity to live only steps away from some of the best food and entertainment to be found in Philadelphia.
