This sweet Mantua row home is a unique labor of love waiting for a new owner to bring their own finishing touches. It has been partially updated and maintains original details. The quaint front porch leads you inside to the tiled vestibule featuring original woodwork and a stained glass transom window. Enter the living area and find an open floor plan with exposed ceilings and partially updated flooring. You can enjoy the deconstructed aesthetic or easily customize to your liking. A simple kitchen with open shelving sits at the front of the house, allowing for a spacious living and dining area. A gorgeous mantle, with a non-working, tastefully tiled fireplace adds delightful charm to the space. Just beyond you’ll find multiple windows allowing natural light to fill the living space. A convenient powder room completes the first floor. Upstairs are 3 partially updated bedrooms, one with a handsome built in closet. The full bathroom has open shelving and the original claw foot tub. Out back you will find a patio space with a large yard. Build sweat equity quickly as you personalize and complete the home. Bordering University City, this presents a great opportunity for first time buyers, young professionals, or investors seeking properties for their portfolios. Fairmount Park offers local, abundant green space. Transit is incredibly convenient with Septa buses, trolleys, and easy access to major thoroughfares off of Lancaster Ave. Community-driven projects are continuously implemented with dedication to maintaining and improving the neighborhood. With restaurants and coffee shops close by, as well as all of the entertainment options Philadelphia has to offer, you can enjoy urban living at a very affordable price.
