5.5% for qualified buyers! Seller to pay 2-1 rate buy down, offering buyers a unique opportunity for BIG SAVINGS the first 2 years of their loan! This is the house people walk into and say wow. A total rehab on an eighteen-foot-wide lot with a long, open floor plan. The moment you step through the door, the trim work, the custom lighting, and the woodwork stop you in your tracks. The dining room and kitchen are the two centerpieces of the house — the dining room with its woodwork, the kitchen with its island. Arched niches, picture-frame molding, and a fluted-wood feature wall carry that same design language throughout. Three bedrooms, three full baths. The primary suite is upstairs, with the same high-quality trim work found throughout the home, plus a painted arch accent wall with flanking sconces — a luxury hotel feel. The primary also has an en suite bathroom. There’s also a second bedroom with another full bathroom, plus laundry. Every closet in this house is a custom closet, because there’s no wasted space in this house. And tucked in the back on the first floor, a full bedroom and full bath, perfect for guests, an office, or a home gym. Prime South Philly location. This isn’t a house you just live in — it’s a house you’re proud to show off.
