Visit this classic Highlands home with a sidewalk and a large front porch building community with neighbors and also featuring a private patio in the rear. This superior location on popular W 16th Street includes a long driveway for off-street parking PLUS a two car garage! A previous owner built a thoughtful addition with a huge kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and plenty of room for an eat-in nook at the rear or pocket office in the back of the home. Featuring traditional and elegant hardwood flooring, a built-in corner cabinet in the dining room, built-in bookshelves in the living room and a stacked stone fireplace with a wood stove, this beautiful Highlands twin has many modern conveniences. The furnace and four split duct AC units were installed in 2018; water heater in 2021. Enjoy the finest of City living; walkable to Trolley Square, Rockford Park and the Brandywine.
