    What's special

    Unfinished basementLarge patioCosmetic upgradesGood ceiling heightNewer cabinetsSemi-modern kitchen
    Fantastic opportunity in booming Olde Kensington/Norris Square with 3 beds, 1 bath, large patio and just a 5-minute walk to the Berks Station of the El. Ideal price point for 1st-timer, buy and hold investor or even a flipper with tons of development and high comps nearby. Solid home with good bones that just needs some cosmetic upgrades like flooring, paint, appliances and a parge coat in the basement. Traditional brick façade with large living room and dining separated by an ornate archway. Semi-modern kitchen has newer cabinets and access to a nice rear patio. 3 large bedrooms upstairs with high ceilings and a hall bath with stall shower. Unfinished basement with laundry, mechanicals and good ceiling height. Great buy in a booming neighborhood with tons of appreciation potential. 1 block to Berks Station for a short subway ride to Center City plus a 10–20-minute walk to anywhere on the Fishtown Frankford Ave. corridor and some of Philly’s best dining like Suraya, Kalaya, Jaffa Bar & Evil Genius. Easy access to 95, public transit and a great tenant pool with all the nearby bars, restaurants and cafes. Superb long-term investment. Will not last, schedule your showing today!
