    What's special

    Classic brick facadeRenovated kitchenCentral air
    Steps from it all, but located on a quiet, no through traffic block, this impeccably maintained and updated home has warmth and character, combined with modern comforts. From the moment you approach the home, you can feel the charm radiate from its classic brick facade. Enter into the tile vestibule with custom-painted wall art. Step into the living room to find a sun-splashed living and dining area, with high ceilings with crown molding and designer-selected paint and accents throughout to complement each space. Find a powder room on this level, with a clair de lune blue ceramic sink, the first of two bathrooms. Renovated kitchen features a farmhouse sink with window overlooking a backyard with full sun for growing lush plants, a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a 5 burner gas range and a dishwasher, located in the space adding peninsula island, which also features a butcher block breakfast bar, adding additional seating for everyday convenience. Step outside to find your private backyard oasis - perfect for gardening, grilling and dining al fresco in the warmer months. Downstairs, find a finished basement with separate laundry area as well as a separate office space, also perfect for crafting or storage. This lower level offers a great space for additional living room/den or a guest area. Take the stairs to the second level to find the two well-proportioned bedrooms, each filled with natural light. The primary bedroom, which easily accommodates a large furniture set, features two closets and elegant crown molding. For additional storage, there is a large cedar closet off the hall to serve the second bedroom. The hall bathroom features a space saving barn door, and has an impressive custom built reclaimed wood vanity with dual sinks, tile shower and bathtub combination, and a large window. Central air completes this fantastic residence. Steps from Passyunk Ave, and less than 2 blocks walk to the nearest stop of the Broad Street Subway line, this house is perfect for enjoying all of the fantastic restaurants Passyunk Square and South Philadelphia have to offer, while also being a quick commute downtown to Center City, or to the stadiums to catch a game. Watts Street, located between Mifflin and Moore Streets, is not a through street, so there is never any traffic on this quiet, well maintained block, where residents find parking easily. In the acclaimed Fanny Jackson Coppin elementary school district, rated in the top 3 in Philadelphia. Truly a must see home!
