Like NEW OPEN CONCEPT home in the Riverside section of Fishtown with a FULL BACK YARD! Want to be in the middle of the hottest neighborhood in Philadelphia, but still want a private back yard with grass, garden, and a swing set? Set on a quiet street, this 3 bed, 2 full bath home with full basement underwent a COMPLETE RENOVATION in 2019 that included structural changes that seamlessly blend modern open concept living with traditional old world charm characteristic of the area. As you enter the front of the home you will be struck by the amount of natural light which fills the space. This was achieved by the relocation of the stairs, removal of walls and addition of windows. The living room flows into the large eating area and then the heart of the home. The NEW KITCHEN includes shaker style cabinetry, butcher block counters, white farmhouse sink, built in beverage center, stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash and full view of the big, beautiful back yard. The entire main level is finished in rich hardwood, which flows throughout the entire home. Ascend the newly constructed stairs to find a spacious hall leading to two large bedrooms, each with a spacious closet. The relocated NEW BATH includes double vanity and white subway tile. The second level also includes a bright & sunny nook, currently used as a nursery, but would make an ideal home office or peloton room! As you move down to the fully finished basement, appreciate the fact that you won’t bump your head! That’s because nearly 3 feet was excavated from this previously unfinished area to make room for a 3rd bedroom, NEW FULL BATHROOM with white subway tile and laundry area featuring a stackable Miele washer & ventless dryer and laundry sink. In addition, there is also a large STORAGE room and workshop. Attention to detail in the renovation is everywhere – from the cork underlayment beneath the hardwood to eliminate squeaking, to the solid-core doors to reduce noise, space saving pocket doors and motion sensor lighting in the bathrooms, the current owners thought of everything so you can just move in and enjoy! And enjoying the OUTSIDE SPACE is just what you will be doing. One of the only homes in Fishtown with a private and green back yard, it features a garden to grow flowers or veggies, patio, space for a firepit, a playset and shed…and of course plenty of green grass! Additional updates to this home include NEW ENERGY EFFICIENT 4 ZONE HVAC, NEW FLOORING, drywall, paint, trim and insulation throughout the home, in addition to new wiring, plumbing and mechanicals. This home is just a half block off of Girard Avenue, a 10 minute walk to the Market-Frankford Line or Penn Treaty Park. Its just 5 minutes to access I-95, and under 10 minutes to Temple University Hospital Episcopal Campus. It’s in the catchment for Adaire Elementary and just a block away from the newly redone Fishtown Rec Center and Pool. In addition, you can walk to shopping and are close to City Gym, restaurants like Suraya, Kraftwork, Lloyd, Interstate, Loco Pez, Philly Style Bagels and Johnny Brenda’s. This home offers it all – location, outdoor space, open concept and peace of mind knowing everything about the home is like new. WELCOME HOME!!! Be sure to check out the 3D virtual tour.
