Truly, you never need to leave home to have it all! If you DO need to go somewhere, you have plenty of options. Just 1 mile from The Broad Street Subway and PATCO to NJ, only 7 minutes to I95, and just 21 minutes to the Philadelphia International Airport. Now onto the home! Enter into the living room with a cozy reading or coffee nook under the stairs. Head back to the eat-in kitchen with island seating for 2. The rear patio is a good size and easily accessed by the private breezeway if you happen to be entertaining or need to pass through with the rubbish bins (the cans in the yard come with the house, and they DO fit down the alley!). Upstairs, you have a generous landing area outside the bathroom and 2nd floor bedroom. Upstairs you'll find another 2 bedrooms. Each has closets or wardrobes. The basement is accessed from the Bilco doors in front of the house and has plenty of room for storage. While you can add hookups for laundry and your washer/dryer, you could just as well use the wash 'n fold around the corner and enjoy the convenience of getting this chore off your plate! The furniture is negotiable, but your enjoyment of this home in this location is not- you will love it! Schedule your showing today!
