15K Price Reduction - Owner has closed on another house and wants to sell! Charm and character highlight this well cared for 3 bedroom/1 bath home located in Bella Vista. Original details have been complemented by both practical and tasteful updates resulting in a comfortable, cozy sanctuary in one of Philadelphia's best neighborhoods. This house is not for everyone, but it is PERFECT for the buyer who is looking for features like unique pine floors and pass-throughs a block from the Italian market. Some of the features are 'trinity-like' such as the tight staircase, but this house differentiates itself with: open floor layouts, over 1400 square feet - roughly twice the square footage of a traditional trinity, a separate laundry room and 3 private bedrooms. Modern, it is not. But you will appreciate the Central Air in August, the draft-eliminating, newer noise-cancelling windows and storm door in January and the reasonable price every month when the mortgage is due. ...Enter to the open first floor featuring original refinished pine floors, eat-in kitchen with granite counter tops and tons of character. Passing through the kitchen you'll find a separate laundry room leading outside to a nice-sized private back patio. The second floor features plentiful closet space, two bedrooms and a large full bath. The open layout third floor at over 400 square feet, can be used as a den/media room or spacious master bedroom. (Currently, it is used as both.) The owner has made consistent improvements - aesthetic, functional and structural - over the past 10 years. In addition to AC and new windows: floors, roof, countertop, window treatments (for privacy), and some appliances. Additionally, structural and electrical improvements have been made. Don't miss this opportunity to be in Bella Vista within blocks of the Italian Market, Queen Village, Passyunk Square and all the restaurants and shops Center City has to offer!
