This amazing home features six bedrooms, 4-1/2 baths, oak and pine floor, original tile baths, plaster crown moldings, original faux fireplace mantles, with large and bright rooms, 2 sets of laundry, a finished basement, a bonus sunroom, and so much more.Entering through a vestibule with beautiful tiling, the first floor living space features formal living, dining and kitchen spaces. All adorned with beautiful hardwood floors, original moldings, pocket doors, and more. The kitchen features a large island work space, a professional range, a pantry, and several sinks. There is also space for a seating area. Behind the kitchen is a bright and sunny den area that leads out to the back yard. There is also a powder room on this floor. The second floor features a hall bathroom, 3 bedrooms (one large one that could make a great tv room) and additional closets in the hall. The third floor houses 3 more bedrooms and 2 hall bathrooms, one that is more recent featuring double showers and a laundry set. The basement has been finished with a full bathroom, a laundry area with utility sink, and more space for crafting, working out, etc. This West Philly winner sits close to universities, Baltimore Avenue's amenities, public transportation, multiple playgrounds, hospitals, grocers, University Swim Club, Mariposa CoOp, Cobbs Creek Nature Center, and Clark Park. You'll love being in an area that has significant architectural and historical significance, exciting development activity, and great walkability. Plus youll enjoy an easy commute to Center City by car or bike, with plenty of convenient bus, and trolley (less than 5-minute walk to #13 and #34 lines) and regional rail options.
