Property Description
The one you've been waiting for! A rare chance to own real estate that has been slowly, consciously, transformed back into a work of art! “Casa Serena”, currently zoned by variance as a lucrative (under-rented), 2-family dwelling in prime Dickinson Narrows location, could also easily convert back to a stunning single family home. With its remarkable artistic detail and design throughout, this opulent restoration stands out in a sea of cookie-cutter renovations. Grand vestibule entry, victorian pattern floor tile, ornamental raised paneling, glass panel french doors. Spacious ground floor living and bedroom display lush, original hardwoods with intricate design, oversized windows, decorator mantle, and giant, architrave moulding. Large kitchen, private outdoor patio with side alley, and access to expansive, dry basement, with finishable ceiling height. Unit 2 is bi-level with bright, formal living room, well-lit, full bathroom on each floor, spacious, fully functional kitchen with W/D. 4 large, sun-filled bedrooms, combination original wood and new builtin closets, detailed with repurposed original decorative trim work, century-old elegance. Tall ceilings, exposed brick, beam, and artistic upgrades throughout, taking original design to a whole new level. Intentional detail attracting tenants who appreciate the artistic integrity, and raise it, with their own creative touch and extended lease-hold stays. These units fly off the shelves when listed for rent, and always with a flood of love letters to the owner. Exceptionally well-kept, new roof in 2015, updated electric, and newer furnaces for peace of mind. One block from booming Dickinson Sq. Park with playground, basketball courts, Indego Bike Share Station, and local Farmers Market. Convenient to plenty of the City’s best cafes, restaurants, bars. Close to I-95, Septa bus lines, Target, and the Christopher Columbus Shopping Complex. Shows beautifully! Hurry, this pearl will not last!
