Description

Enter into this charming ranch-style townhome nestled on a quiet Southwest Philadelphia street where street parking is plentiful and never a hassle. The home welcomes you with an open-concept layout featuring a spacious living room highlighted by a cozy electric fireplace—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The updated kitchen offers plenty of space for cooking and gathering, with room for a dining table to create a comfortable eat-in setup. Just off the kitchen, a door leads to a large, private, fully fenced backyard complete with a deck and garden area—ideal for outdoor dining, gardening, or simply enjoying your own peaceful retreat. The main level also includes a comfortable bedroom and a full hall bathroom for convenient one-floor living. Downstairs, the fully finished basement expands the living space with two generously sized bedrooms and an additional full bathroom. Laundry is neatly tucked away on one side of the bathroom, maximizing functionality while keeping everything organized.
