A standout feature is the spacious basement with substantial ceiling height, offering excellent potential for additional finished living space. Conveniently located near University City, UPenn, Drexel University, public transportation, shopping, dining, parks, and major employment centers. Additional features include an enclosed front porch, concrete front yard, and concrete rear yard.
