Property Description
Step into a generously apportioned 3-bedroom historic home in Philadelphia's vibrant Northern Liberties, where timeless charm meets modern comfort. This beautifully preserved residence offers an inviting blend of character and convenience in one of Philly's most sought-after neighborhoods. Enter through a tiled vestibule with an arched transom window into a spacious living room featuring high ceilings, open rafters, oak hardwood floors, brick accent wall, and a cozy fireplace. Dual-pane wood sash windows are a tasteful update, and flood the space with light. The property features salvaged custom stained glass windows throughout. The kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, stainless appliances, a gas range, and slate tile flooring, with French doors opening to a charming back porch. A private breezeway provides easy street access for bikes or trash, directly from the kitchen. Upstairs, two bedrooms feature oak hardwood floors with inlay. The primary bedroom includes a brick fireplace, while the second offers a large built-in closet and access to a sun-soaked deck with east and southern exposure. A modernized full bathroom retains historic charm. The top floor hosts a versatile great room with pinewood floors, recessed lighting, and dormer windows showcasing views of the block's new architecture, perfect as a bedroom, hobby space, or retreat. The hardscaped back porch, framed by an ivy wall and 6-foot fence, creates a private oasis. Central AC and modern amenities ensure comfort while preserving historic allure. New roof in 2025! Just steps from Cafe La Maude, Bardot, and eclectic shops, with easy access to the Market-Frankford El and Girard Ave Trolley, this home offers an unmatched lifestyle in a thriving neighborhood.
