What's special
Welcome home to this beautifully updated Manayunk home with TWO CAR PARKING. That's right, no more circling the block looking for parking, as you can comfortably fit 2 vehicles side by side in your private driveway. From the driveway you'll walk to the back of your home through your spacious backyard, passing your large storage shed, and onto your brand new deck. From the deck you'll enter through the backdoor to your beautiful kitchen adorned with quartz countertops, new stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplash, huge island, and shaker cabinets. The dining room and deck allow plenty of room to host dinner parties and BBQs, both inside and out. Through the dining room, you'll be greeted by the living room with original hardwood floors and a full wall of custom built-ins. Upstairs you'll find the primary bedroom with vaulted ceilings, large closet, and a view of the Philadelphia skyline from your bedroom window. The hall closet has been upgraded to a walk-in with plenty of storage. Two more sizable bedrooms and hall bathroom with tub/shower combo complete the second floor, where you'll notice the original doors and knobs have been left in place to maintain the charm of this exquisite home. In the basement you'll find even more space to relax, work, and play. At the bottom of the steps sits an additional living area. One one side of the living room is an office space to meet your work from home needs. On the other side of the living room is a new, modern full bathroom with a tiled shower. Enjoy sunrises overlooking the Manayunk hills from your east-facing, elevated front porch. The home resides just a couple blocks from neighborhood favorites such as Twisted Gingers, Manayunk Pizza, Hilltown Tavern, and Pretzel Park. And of course, Main Street, and all the great restaurants, shops, and bars that it offers, is a short distance away. Showings begin July 17th.
