About This Home
As of September 2017Completely renovated just five years ago, and with five years left on the tax abatement, this beautiful three bedroom, two bath town home on a quiet street in the desirable Powelton area is the best of University City and enjoys all of the amenities of modern construction while maintaining all of the charm of the past. The open concept first floor features gleaming hardwood floors throughout, 10' ceilings, crown molding, a bow window alcove looking out to the front and a gas fireplace. The living and dining rooms flow seamlessly into the chef's kitchen with stainless appliances, gas cooking, a large pantry closet, a breakfast bar peninsula, recessed lighting and granite counter tops. Easy access from the kitchen to the backyard is a huge addition as the garden expands past the patio and enjoys the shade of a beautiful tree. This much space is rarely seen in the heart of the city. The second floor has two generously sized bedrooms, a conveniently located laundry area and a modern bathroom with radiant floor heating. The third floor hosts the master retreat with a large bedroom, full bathroom with a custom shower and radiant floor heating and a surprisingly large walk in closet. No details have been overlooked in this home. All new windows, doors both exterior and interior, energy efficient HVAC systems, new Pex plumbing, upgraded electrical, a french drain in the basement and so much more. Walk to public transportation, restaurants and shops. Close to UPenn, CHOP and Drexel, where it qualifies for the Homeowner Assistance Program. This one needs to be seen!
