Description
Situated on a lovely block in Historic Germantown, this renovated and restored rowhome is ready for you to move right in. Built in 1917, this porch-front air-lite style home retains the original timeless floor plan with a tiled entryway and formal living room in the front of the home, and dining room and kitchen in the rear. The home itself has wider footprint than most Philly rowhomes, making it feel spacious and open. The character doesn't stop with the layout however, as no detail was left undone during the recent (2021) renovations. The original hardwood floors were restored throughout the home, and original woodwork, built-in bookshelves and corner cabinet were all left in-tact to preserve the classic character. Modernized with a brand-new HVAC system to add central air, as well as all-new electrical wiring, chimney liner, and various upgrades like high-end window treatments, recessed lighting, and newer windows and doors, this home will be worry-free for the new owner for years to come. The kitchen was completely re-done with soft-close cabinets, farmhouse sink, all-new black stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops and ceramic tile floor and backsplash. Moving up to the second floor, you will notice the unique "rotunda" layout of the bedrooms and bathroom, beginning with a small but versatile bedroom on your left (perfect for a home office, nursery, or extra storage), and moving on to the completely gut-renovated bathroom with modern tile floor, shower surround, console sink and quartz counters, to the second bedroom which is sun-drenched by it's 4 bay windows, complete with high-end light filtering top-down bottom up shades. The main bedroom offers a sense of calm and serenity while the fourth bedroom features dual closets for extra storage capacity. Storage can also be found in the partially finished basement, as well as a brand-new half-bathroom, full set of laundry appliances, work sink, and extra refrigerator. There is even a built-in work bench for any projects or hobbies you have. The fully-fenced rear yard features a brick laid patio, granite retaining wall with fully planted garden bed, and 2 entrances to the home. Care and commitment to detail are evident in all areas of this home and you will not be disappointed.
