Desired location, fabulous Twin home, just a few blocks from Girard Ave in 19122. 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bath, corner situated home with 2 outdoor spaces, a lovely finished basement, and definitely not cookie cutter. This turn of the century home has been transformed into a modern dwelling with all of the creature comforts you demand and has industrial touches such as the custom metal handrails adorning all of the staircases and hand forged metal trim thresholds and transitions. This home offers beautiful durable water resistant vinyl hardwood floors throughout. Excellent for high traffic areas as well as high efficiency remote controlled mini-split central air systems, and recessed lighting throughout. Enter into a spacious open living area with a straight through layout that is open to the kitchen. The kitchen has been fitted with white shaker cabinets, polished quartz countertops, a full stainless appliance package, undermount sink and a retractable gooseneck faucet with a charming glass pendant light that hangs over the sink. We like that the rear yard can be accessed through the dining area making grill-to-table cooking a year round convenience. This ground level outdoor space is fantastic for pets, or entertaining being completely fenced in for privacy, includes a built-in planting area, and seating area. Before going upstairs, visit the full finished basement. This room offers an exposed concrete accent wall, a 2nd living space (or den/home office/4th guest bedroom), a big utility laundry room with a full size stacked front load washer and dryer and half bath. Up to the 2nd floor and you will love the rarely offered covered wrap-around back porch accessible through one of the bedrooms. The 2nd floor full bathroom has a dual vanity, subway tile shower and tub combo, and a linen closet. The 2nd bedroom has an exposed brick fireplace with electric Classic Flame Fireplace with 5 different flame effects (so romantic!) and a heater function. The 3rd floor is a full suite with a private bathroom, marble vanity, a huge walk -in rainfall shower, sliding glass barn style shower door. The bedroom has a dramatic A-frame ceiling and an amazing walk-in closet. Other features: solid wood doors, custom baseboards, plenty of storage, new 200 amp service, new usystems throughout, and Zoned heating and cooling. Located in walking distance to Local cafes and markets like Luna Cafe, tons of restaurants and social venues, Cruz playground, and a few blocks from Fishtown and Northern Liberties
