Welcome to Francisville, one of Philadelphia Magazine's 'neighborhoods to watch'. This fantastic home with garage parking features a well-designed floor plan with large, airy rooms and tons of natural light. The three-story traditional brick home boasts soaring ceilings, gleaming bamboo hardwood flooring and large windows flooding the space with natural light. Enter at garage level into a foyer with a powder room leading to a cozy bedroom equipped with a renovated full bath boasting a soaking tub, and duel flush toilet. Sliders invite the outside in and lead to a sunny patio with brick pavers, a private fence and lush planters, a great spot for spring evenings relaxing around the fire pit. Steeped in character and light, the spacious living area on the second floor boasts bamboo floors, crown molding and a traditional oak staircase. The dining area is gracious enough for a large dinner party and handsome touches include crown molding and recessed lighting. A Juliet balcony off the dining area allows for cocktails in the cool breeze after dinner. The stylish, well-appointed kitchen with dark walnut cabinets, a glass mosaic tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and white quartz countertops features a large island with pendant lighting and plenty of room for food preparation. Upstairs you'll find two sunny bedrooms, both with bamboo floors, and two spa-like baths, both en-suite, one with a shower and double vanity and one with a soaking tub. A laundry room rounds out the floor. The finished basement offers a fourth bedroom or family room with plenty of storage space. A spectacular roof deck provides unobstructed sweeping views of the city and a perfect space to entertain and catch the fireworks. The home also features two zoned heating and air conditioning (upstairs unit installed in 2016 with a 10 year warranty) and a tax abatement until 2021. The neighborhood comes alive in the summer as it is home to Philadelphia's largest outdoor events, parades, concerts and races. For the foodie, walk to delightful bistros, gourmet food shops, friendly cafes, fine restaurants, and local pubs along Fairmount Avenue. Enjoy a stroll past the boathouses on near-by Kelly Drive, a tour at the Museum of Art or a bike ride along the flag-lined Ben Franklin Parkway. Stop for a drink at Bar Hygge, lunch at Rybread, pick up groceries at Whole Foods or a coffee at Tela's. Cross nearby Broad Street to enjoy the revitalization of the Spring Arts District and admire the newly refurbished Divine Lorraine. If you are looking for convenient living with parking surrounded by some the best neighborhood amenities Philadelphia has to offer, you have found your home!
