What's special
You’ll feel right at home from the moment you step through the front door. This Point Breeze beauty was a total renovation in 2010 and has been lovingly maintained ever since. It’s in a wonderful location, near the excitement of all the Washington Avenue happenings, but distant enough to provide a quiet oasis when needed. The charm begins as you enter the enclosed foyer. The first floor is an open design with the living room flowing into the kitchen and a large dining room, which in turn opens onto the inviting patio and garden, making the home ideal for entertaining. The kitchen includes granite counter tops, a breakfast bar, and stainless-steel appliances. There is a conveniently located powder room on the first level. Enter the garden area and enjoy the large, Pennsylvania Blue Stone sitting area and the raised flower beds. There’s plenty of room for your grill too. The garden is an extension of your entertaining area. The second floor includes three large bedrooms with more than ample closets. There is a hall bath and the primary bedroom is ensuite. The primary bedroom features two large closets and a small deck that is reached through glass sliders. The primary bathroom has a double vanity with great under-counter storage. Enjoy the large step-in shower. Rounding out the upper levels is a lovely roof deck area reached via the pilot house. It was just re-done and is brand new. The basement is fully finished and is divided into a living area and a laundry room with lots of storage space. The front part of the basement is yet another great area for a family room or office. The rear part of the basement also includes your mechanicals. Point Breeze has become one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the city. It is an easy walk to Penn and Drexel and this home is in the catchment for the desirable Edwin M. Stanton Elementary School. Restaurants abound and recent development includes an Aldi scheduled to open on nearby Washington Avenue. This neighborhood has it all! Home is owned by a licensed real estate professional.
