About the Listing EL-W-PH - 3125171,3177546

This rowhome has a beautiful historic exterior and a super-spacious interior layout with stylish hand-picked touches throughout. The arched leaded glass front window brings beauty inside and out, from the charming front porch that just begs for a swing to the spacious living room, where it is in good company with the original turned staircase and transom over the front door. There’s great flow on the first floor, with an extra-wide doorway connecting the spacious living room to the dining room, which then joins to the kitchen via a deep butcher block breakfast bar. The dining room has an under-stair storage nook and a full wall of custom wood shelving, as well as enough floorspace for a large table. The warmth of this room is carried through into the kitchen, where more custom wood shelving further ties the spaces together. There’s plenty of storage in the duochrome blue and white Shaker cabinets with industrial-inspired black hardware, and plenty of prep space via the black granite countertops with an undermount sink with pulldown faucet. The stainless steel appliances include a Whirlpool dishwasher and Frigidaire fridge. Ceramic flooring runs through to the powder room, which has a cute green vanity and transom window, to the rear alcove with access to the basement and rear yard. An original staircase with a stylish weathered black finish takes you up to the second floor, where there are high ceilings and great natural light throughout the hallway and each of the four bedrooms. The good-sized rear bedroom has two windows and a wide closet. Each middle bedroom has a closet and window; one is big enough for a full bed, and the smaller of the pair has two standard windows flanking a transom–a great setup for maximizing light (and charm!) while providing wall space for furniture. Past a hall linen closet is another large bedroom with a lovely bay window and an extra-wide closet. The ceramic hall bath has a large window and a good amount of storage via custom wood shelving. Laundry and storage are in the basement. Directly overlooking the well-kept grounds of a senior residential center, this home is two blocks from the nine-acre park that houses the Kingsessing Library and Rec Center, currently undergoing $25M in upgrades, and is convenient to Baltimore and Woodland aves as well as the Grays Ferry Bridge.
