Living large in Passyunk Square. Come experience this 16 foot wide house, with 9+ foot ceilings and know what it feels like to step into a South Philly classic. This home was previously owned by a proud contractor and it shows in the workmanship, built in features, and solid feel. Enter through a vestibule with immaculate vintage tile into a sun-filled grand living room. South facing bay windows bring abundant light in this living space which is accented by original floors and exposed brick. Pass though a custom archway into the open-plan dining room/kitchen that begs cooking and conversation. Abundant counter space, double sink, hanging pot rack, as well as a small kitchen island make this kitchen a pleasure work in. View the planters out back through a large window above the sink and a full glass door to the back patio. There is plenty of storage here as well with a coat closet and an additional pantry closet. Just off of the dining room, you will find a spotless, vintage tiled powder room. On the second floor a brand new skylight and lofty ceiling height again bring a more spacious feel. The front bedroom is sizable and features a large bay window, filling the room with southern facing light. Another extraordinary feature of this home is closet space, which you will find in abundance here in the front bedroom. At the rear, a second bedroom illustrates the difference between a 1200 and 1400 sq ft row home, with itâs surprising spaciousness and large double closet. The middle bedroom is perfect for the younger children or an office. The master bath again features immaculate brown vintage tile and is an inviting, functional space. This basement is finished and ready for action as a play room, TV lounge, office or gathering area. Here you will also find washer and dryer, several built in closets including one lined in cedar, and systems. Some items of note: Switched outlet in the ground floor bay window for holiday decorations (you know the ones!), inset or built in radiators, built in safe, large cedar closet, fold out ironing board, built in night light on second floor. Oh yeah, and location...This house is two blocks from Passyunk Ave or The Bok Building, literally steps away from the best that South Philly has to offer. You are also a quick trip over to âbig boxâ spots on Christopher Columbus Blvd and easy access to I 95 or I 76.
