    What's special

    Home buyers in University City, look no further! This 3-bedroom, 1 bath classic, brick front row home is your way into home ownership or real estate investing with a LOWER THAN MARKET INTEREST RATE. The sellers are offering an interest rate buy down option to a qualified buyer with an acceptable offer. This means you can afford "more home" and have a lower monthly mortgage payment. Check out this prime location across from Drexel's Vidas Athletic Ctr. Open space view, fewer parked cars, nice, unobstructed sunset views! A new roof was put on in 2016 and comes with a 15-year warranty. Inside and out, a well-maintained home with an open floor plan on the main floor and newer flooring, two ceiling fans and high ceilings. The electric fireplace in the living room is included and can be easily moved around. The kitchen cabinets are solid wood and plentiful! Kitchen boasts a new oven/stove, new refrigerator, newer dishwasher, plenty of counter space, deep corner sink, and a garbage disposal. Just off the kitchen is a super convenient laundry room with a utility sink. Easy access to the fenced backyard just off the laundry room. Great for barbeques! Upstairs is nice-sized primary bedroom with a large closet, ceiling fan and cityscape views. The 2nd or middle bedroom has a good-sized closet and a ceiling fan. Could be an ideal work from home room. At the back of the house is the 3rd bedroom, also spacious. All three bedrooms have numerous electrical outlets needed in today's living standards. The home has been freshly painted too. The location qualifies for Drexel's Home Purchase Assistance Program AND UPenn's Closing Cost Reduction Program/Forgivable Loan Program (please refer to each program's eligibility info.) Quick access to the expressway in either direction or heading downtown. Catch the subway at 40th & Market or the trolley at Lancaster & Spring Garden. Enjoy the nearby restaurants, concert venues, museums, parks and university campuses. A city parking permit is available for 42nd St. for approx. $30. per year.
