This lovely Fairmount townhome was completely renovated in 2013 to maximize the space and natural sunlight allowing the living space to flow naturally to the garden patio. You will first notice the beautiful original brickwork and character in the leaded glass details of the door and transom. Enter into a spacious kitchen outfitted with custom cabinetry, high-end appliances and a seating peninsula. This unusually large kitchen can easily accommodate a dining table or center island. Easy bike storage has been created at the entry foyer on the natural brick wall that runs the length of the house. The kitchen flows to a dining area with powder room and then into the cozy living space with a temperature-controlled gas fireplace, custom cabinetry that includes additional bench seating, and a wide French sliding door that seamlessly joins the indoor living space with the outdoor living space. Under the floating staircase is the basement entrance which is a lift up door on a hydraulic arm for ease of access while allowing maximum living space. Upstairs a third bedroom was taken over to create a large spa bathroom with soaking tub and walk in shower with marble accents and the addition of a walk-in laundry room. The main bedroom looks out onto the tree lined street and has an oversized walk-in closet. The spacious rear bedroom serves as a guest bedroom/den area with a built-in home office desk. The full basement offers plenty of storage and room to expand or, at this amazing location, even add a third floor to maximize your value! The best part of this lovely home is the convenient location on a tree lined street just steps from many great restaurants, coffee shops, museums, Fairmount Park, transportation and shopping. Walkable to center city and easy commute to both Penn and Temple areas.
