In a sea of generic flips, this owner-loved and lovingly maintained home is a real standout. A classic porchfront with just the right amount of vintage charm, it has all the benefits of the other recently renovated houses out there--central air, updated kitchen and bath, even four years remaining on the tax abatement--without the question mark of what will happen when the shine wears off. The open-concept main level has pretty original features like hardwood floors and leaded glass bay windows as well as plenty of space for defined living and dining areas, including a convenient--and discreetly tucked-away--powder room. The kitchen features black granite countertops with breakfast bar, warm amber-colored Shaker-style cabinets, mini mosaic tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and a deep stainless steel undermount sink with gooseneck faucet. Never worry about trekking to the basement to do laundry; there's a bonus mudroom off the kitchen with a full-size washer and dryer. Head up the turned staircase to three sunny bedrooms, all with good closet space; the front bedroom features a pretty bay window and the rear has a sweet nook great for a home office or reading spot. The nicely appointed ceramic tile bathroom has a skylight, granite-topped vanity and space to add linen storage. The basement offers plenty of room for seasonal storage, and the back patio is the perfect place for grilling and a container garden. This sweet little tree-lined West Powelton block is near multiple public transit options, and UPenn, Drexel and University City shopping and dining are all a no-car-needed commute.
