PASSYUNK SQUARE /ITALIAN MARKET recently updated home where character and craftsmanship meet modern amenities and appliances. Enter the front door from the quiet, tree-lined street to find an open-concept floor plan. This inviting, well-maintained home boasts many beautifully intact classic features such as the original hardwood floors with mahogany inlay, custom wrought iron banisters, and crown moulding. A big bay window in the front of the property lights up the spacious first floor (living / dining room, half bathroom, and kitchen). The large kitchen includes cherry Makellos kitchen cabinetry, ample counter space, a custom (floor-to-ceiling) pantry with butcher block counter and sliding bamboo shelves, a small closet, and modern appliances. Open the backdoor to your private patio area, perfect for summer BBQing. Three good-sized bedrooms with closets, a nicely appointed tile bathroom, and a large linen closet round out the second floor. The spacious finished basement is a gem. It's separated into two sections. You enter into a finished entertaining space. Here you'll find a wet bar featuring gray cabinetry and a white herringbone subway tile backsplash. Separated by a wall, the other side of the basement has an extensive storage area and laundry facilities. Don't miss this fabulous, centrally located home with a walkscore of 95. It's right around the corner from East Passyunk shops and restaurants (some of the best in the city), less than a five-minute walk to ACME grocery store and 24-hour CVS Pharmacy, and near-by the Italian Market and all its old world charm. Great public transportation accessibility: SEPTA Bus Route 45 is about a block away and takes you into Center City; the Broad Street Orange line (Ellsworth / Federal Station) is a 10-minute walk from the home.
