    OPEN HOUSE THURSDAY 4/24 4:00 PM. Sat on a low-traffic block in East Kensington, surrounded by new construction, rehabs, a playground, and a community garden, you'll find 2042 E Boston St. This semi-detached, 3-story home was built in 2017, offering 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, a finished basement, hardwired speakers throughout, a private yard, and an expansive roof deck. Out front, you're greeted by a towering brick facade and a raised entry. Inside, you'll find an open and airy main level with high ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors. Tall windows pour natural light into the living room, while a cozy fireplace adds warmth. A dining area with plenty of space for entertaining is by the center staircase. At the rear, the modern kitchen is fitted with white shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, and a waterfall island with seating and pendant lights above. Out back, the private patio is the perfect spot for gardening, summer barbecues and hanging around the fire pit on cool nights. More living space is found in the finished basement, ideal for a den, playroom, or home theater. There's also a full bathroom and bedroom. Up on the second level, a pair of large bedrooms sit on opposite ends, flanking a full bathroom and a conveniently placed laundry closet off the hall. The third level is dedicated to the primary suite, comprised of a spacious, bright bedroom with backlit tray ceilings, two custom closets, a wet bar, and a spa-like full bathroom boasting a double vanity, a multi-jet, glass-enclosed shower, a soaking tub, a large linen closet, and luxurious tile throughout. Topping off the home is an expansive roof deck where you can host family and friends while enjoying the stunning skyline views. In addition to everything inside, 2042 E Boston St's fantastic location earns a Walk Score of 82! Popular restaurants like Picnic, Post Haste, Meetinghouse, Tulip Pasta & Wine Bar, Kalaya, Suraya, friendly cafes, and local shops are all steps away, with vibrant Frankford Ave and N Front St, both within a few blocks. Sprawling parks are close, plus neighboring Fishtown has lots to explore. There's also easy access to public transit (Berks or York/Dauphin stops less than 10 min walk), shopping centers on Aramingo Ave, Girard Ave, and to I-95. Schedule your tour today!
