    What's special

    BackyardEat-in kitchen

    Available for immediate move-in. NEIGHBORHOOD: The house is located on the 700 block of Watkins Street. Watkins is one block south of Morris Street, and the 700 block is between 7th St. and 8th St. The location is great. It is about a mile south of South Street, and just a few blocks south of Washington Avenue. For shopping, the Italian Market and the large Acme supermarket are a short walk away. Also nearby is the East Passyunk Avenue shopping district with all of its restaurants, cafes, and bars - (P.O.P.E., Cantina, Benna's Coffee, Black and Brew, and of course Pat's and Geno's and the Capitolo Rec. Center. For transportation, the 7th and 8th Street buses stop nearby. Also, Center City is about a 20 minute walk or a 10 minute bicycle ride. HOUSE: The house is two stories with a full basement (see photos) including a WASHER / DRYER and plenty of room for storage. There is a small BACKYARD - big enough for your barbecue grill and a table and chairs. Downstairs is the living room, dining room, and eat-in kitchen. Upstairs are the three bedrooms and the full bathroom. NOTE: One bedroom is HUGE, one bedroom is SMALL, and it has a third room which is good as a walk in closet, home office, dressing room, etc. The house has brand new wood floors downstairs and brand new carpet upstairs in the bedrooms. See photos. The house is a good size for the money (about 900sf). The house was renovated last year. New floors, new walls, new kitchen etc. Everything is nice. It is not fancy or "high end". It is a typical South Philadelphia home at a very good price. Bring your own artwork, tapestries and decorating ideas to make it your home. I require a three month deposit upon signing the lease (first month, last month, and a one-month security deposit). Tenant pays for Electric, Gas and Water in addition to rent. Pets are welcome, but will require an additional $500 pet deposit. I will be scheduling showings for qualified applicants who are ready willing and able to begin a lease soon. Please CALL to schedule your appointment to see this great South Philly house. If I should miss your call, please leave a message and I will call you back. I promise. Thank you, and good luck in your search! I require a three month deposit upon signing the lease (first month, last month, and a one-month security deposit). Tenant pays for Electric, Gas and Water in addition to rent. Pets are welcome, but will require an additional $500 pet deposit. The house is available NOW. The length of the lease is one year.
