1831 Mifflin St, Philadelphia, PA 19145

A total dreamboat inside and out, this renovated Point Breeze rowhome is anything but cookie-cutter. The handsome facade has detailed brickwork, a stately cornice and a transom window above the front door, which gives way to a vestibule entrance with original slate tile walls and a main floor with original pine floors that run throughout, super high ceilings and great natural light. The spacious open living/dining room features ceramic Schoolhouse Electric light fixtures and the original staircase with lovely wood banister. The kitchen has an enormous amount of storage space via contemporary Ultracraft white and maple drawers and cabinets that extend to the ceiling, as does the open shelving above the fridge. A salvaged beadboard backsplash and Caesarstone countertops are carried through to the breakfast bar island, which has fun electric blue Muuto pendant lights with quilted LED bulbs and an oversized zero-radius Miseno stainless steel undermount sink with Grohe pulldown faucet. Stainless steel appliances include a Whirlpool five-burner range, dishwasher and microwave, and a Haier French door fridge. This space is nice and bright due to two windows plus a glass door to the downright huge rear yard, which consists of both a large patio and garden bed, plus a bonus side area to stash away bikes, trash cans and gardening supplies. Tucked between the main living space and the kitchen is a powder room with more salvaged beadboard wainscoting, Grohe fixtures and an awesome vintage Beaty American light fixture. The second floor has ample natural light like the first floor, as well as high ceilings and wide-plank original pine floors. The large rear bedroom has two exposures and a nice view of the yard. The middle bedroom has both a standard closet and a second one outfitted with shelves. The spacious primary bedroom at the front gets great southern light and has a big closet and a charming architectural niche. The super stylish hall bath has a full-wall oversized subway tile surround for the Miseno tub with Grohe fixtures and Caesarstone bench seat; the most fun Noga blue and white Moroccan mosaic cement tile floor; and a stylish wall-mounted sink flanked by sconce lighting. There’s storage space and laundry in the full basement. This nice and wide Point Breeze street is just a couple blocks from neighborhood favorites Ultimo Coffee, Hardena cafe and South Philly Taproom, and convenient to tons more dining on nearby Snyder and Passyunk aves. And as a bonus, there's still plenty of time left on the tax abatement.
