Welcome to 1602 South Bancroft St, a beautifully updated home on a quiet block in the heart of the Newbold neighborhood. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom gem offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with an abundance of light coming through a large front bay window. Hardwood flooring and recessed lighting run throughout the home. The open-concept first floor features ample living space, a half bath, large windows and a vintage iron stair banister. The kitchen features plenty of cabinet space, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, and granite countertops. The partially finished basement offers additional space for leisure, hobbies or storage with a distinctive white brick wall. The second level offers three generously-sized bedrooms and a cedar hallway closet. The full bath features a stylishly tiled bath/shower. The house has a brand new central air conditioning system installed this year. The location is hard to beat: two blocks from the BSL, minutes to East Passyunk, and a short walk to the South Philadelphia Tap Room, 2nd District, Ultimo Coffee and the burgeoning restaurant scene on West Passyunk. This move-in ready home is a perfect blend of comfort and style. Don’t miss the opportunity to make it your own.
