    The Stawasz Group is proud to present another high quality renovation in booming Fishtown! (We will save you the 2-3 sentences about how Fishtown is America's hottest neighborhood.) We all know how sizzling hot this neighborhood is, and for good reasons. This 3-bed, 2.5 bath home offers convenience, space, and an attractive layout all in one package- complete with approximately 4 years left on a FULL (not tiered) 10-YEAR TAX ABATEMENT! Alright, let's take you through the home and explain WHY you should buy it. Reason 1, the front facade was replaced with concrete blocks and new bricks which are tied into the party wall (the right way to do it, this house has been standing for 100 years and we just bought you another 200 years...you're welcome). AND IT LOOKS LIKE A MILLION BUCKS. You will also notice the sharp black custom windows and door which includes new Ring technology located on the door itself. Shall we head inside? What's important about the first floor other than open concept? Reason 2, why you should buy this home... 3/4" red oak hardwood floors which have been sealed with a white wash finish and polyurethaned! First off, no one uses real hardwood floors these days, it is all Engineered Hardwood or Vinyl Plank flooring. Why, you ask? To save money, of course! NOT UP IN HERE! Reasons 3-10.5, a custom dry bar with wine fridge and drink rack, crown molding, black faucet, marble subway tile backsplash, upgraded stainless steel appliances, built in microwave, hood vent, gray kitchen cabinets with black cabinet pulls and open shelving! Need we say more? Just come check this place out, it will not disappoint. Alright, we will try to take you through the rest of the home as fast as possible but if you are having as much fun as we are writing this then maybe this property description never ends. Stay tuned! Outdoor space- great fenced-in area with new concrete slab for entertaining friends and family! Heading to the finished basement you'll find a woman/man cave, flex space, or additional bedroom space with a convenient half bath. Storage exists in the utility closet and under the stairs. Touching base on everyone's favorite part of the home: heating and cooling. The sellers used a two zoned Carrier system which is higher quality than your standard low grade furnace. Did anyone catch the "two zoned" part? Yeah, we didn't either... basically you get a more efficient home. Two thermostats means you can turn the heat down on floors 2 and 3 (since heat rises) saving you bookoo bucks! Awfully thoughtful of the sellers... Who wants to save money on heating and cooling? This guy! Speaking of 2nd floor, you have 2 bedrooms with custom closet organizers, a laundry room that actually comes with a washer/dryer, and a gorgeous bathroom featuring exposed brick, penny tile flooring, subway tiled shower, delta fixtures, hanging pendant lights and a custom wood vanity made from the old wood of this exact home! If you don't buy this home, we will. Now for the grand finale, your master suite with outdoor oasis. This floor features a walk in closet already outfitted with poles and shelves, a master bedroom with custom ladder leading to additional storage, a master bathroom with double vanity sink, marble countertop and flooring, rain head shower, white subway tile, and glass doors! Last but not least, walk out sliding doors leading to your private 3rd floor deck. I mean, come on people, this home has it all and after people read this description we give it a few days before this puppy is off the market. Finally is our shameless plug about location... 1 block from Frankford Ave, in walking distance from Suraya, (new Whole Foods coming soon shhhh), Mural City Cellars (wine not), Tulip Pasta & Wine Bar, Loco Pez, Evil Genius, Palmer Park, City Fitness, and Riverwards Produce Market. THIS HOME IS PRIMO- CALL US FOR A PRIVATE SHOWING!
