Welcome to this charming home on a quiet tree lined street evelated off the street. A gardener will take delight in creating a front oasis that welcomes you up the stairs to the covered front porch perfect for enjoying a morning cup of coffee or chatting with neighbors. Stepping inside this gem, the living and dining rooms have oak floors with mahogany inlay. The living room features a large arched window overlooking the lush front yard, and a good size coat closet, rare for older homes. The dining room has a chandelier, two windows to let light in (some have opened these up to add a large deck off the rear) and room enough for a large table and china cabinet. The adjacent galley style kitchen is small but packs in lots of cabinets for its size and unlike some houses in the area, the kitchen has a refrigerator in it and not in a separate shed. The second floor has both bedrooms and a full bath. The main bedroom is large enough to comfortably accommodate a king-sized bed and has two large windows that let in sunlight. The second bedroom can comfortably fit a queen size bed and work area. Both bedrooms have carpeting, ceiling fans and closets. A linen closet is located in the hallway. The bathroom has a newer sink, a skylight to let natural light in as well as provide ventilation, tile, a deeper tub, and a mirror/medicine cabinet The basement features the home?s mechanicals, washer and dryer, and access to the one car garage and rear driveway which can accommodate parking for a second vehicle. Some area homes have closed in and finished the garage for more finished living space. The home is located within walking distance to restaurants and shops, is a few blocks from the East Falls commuter rail station, and a quick drive into Center City.
