Location, Location, Location. 96 Walk Score and the best Philadelphia and Schuylkill River valley views (have to be seen to fully appreciate) in Manayunk. This unique (wider than deep) Manayunk townhome is located at the top of the Manayunk hill and at the midpoint of the Manayunk Main street. All of the Manayunk Main street shops / restaurants / bars, Schuylkill river trail, Wissahickon Park, and train station with service to Center City are easily walkable. The townhome was designed to entertain. Most of the square footage is in the public (living room, kitchen, game room, roof, etc.) areas and the open design layout has space for all of your friends. The main living area is on the second floor which provides privacy and reduces street noise. The large (28 X 19) first floor (perfect for a game room / man cave) has a wet bar, beer/wine refrigerator, 11-foot ceiling, custom half bath with glass tile and floating sink. There is a sliding door to the two-tier (top tier Astro turf, bottom tier grass), fenced (very private), low maintenance back yard, and a door from the oversized one car garage with large storage loft. The second floor is composed of an enormous living room (28 X16), kitchen, dining room and half bath. The floor has an open concept design, with the only interior wall being around the stair cases. The open design, four large double windows (two in front, two in back), and 9-foot ceiling makes the space bright and airy. The living room has an extra-large ceiling fan and an on the wall gas fireplace. The kitchen has stainless steel LG appliances, gas stove/oven, white quartz counter tops, 42-inch maple cabinets, island (sink, dishwasher, and bar), pantry, and extra under the window built in cabinets. Tons of kitchen cabinets. The Master suite, two good sized guest bedrooms, full guest bath room, and hall laundry closet (stacked washer and dryer) are on the third floor. The Master bedroom (15 X 13) has a triple window with Center City views and a walk-in closet. The Master bath has a floating vanity with dual sinks, a huge soaking tub, large glass enclosed shower (wall and rain shower heads) with pebble tile flooring and a seat. The guest bathroom has slate tile walls / floor and a large glass shower door. All of the bedrooms have ceiling fans. Huge (roughly 800 square feet) private (nobody next to or above) roof top deck with all the amenities (gas, electricity, cable TV, and lights) with stunning views of Center City, City Line drive, the Schuylkill River valley, and the Ben Franklin Bridge / Camden. The icing on the cake is a large 6 person hot tub. The whole house was recently painted a fashionable light grey. Solid mahogany doors, aluminum railings, and bamboo hardwood floors throughout are just some of the custom features. Super energy efficient / high end systems (tank-less water heater, gas appliances, dual zone HVAC) keep the utility bills low. Roughly three years remaining on 10 year tax abatement.
