Welcome to 738 S Mildred St., a charming and thoughtfully updated extended trinity located on a picturesque tree-lined block in the heart of Bella Vista. This move-in ready home combines classic Philadelphia character with a long list of recent improvements, including fresh paint throughout, refinished hardwood floors, new bathroom, new lighting, updated shutters and front door, new windows and doors throughout the home, roof repairs, a new water heater, and added storage solutions. The main level offers a bright and functional layout with a refreshed kitchen featuring painted cabinetry, granite countertops, a new Bosch dishwasher, and access to the private rear patio with a newly installed fence. Upstairs, the second floor includes a spacious bedroom, a versatile bonus room perfect for an office or dressing area, and a full bathroom. The top floor serves as a beautiful primary bedroom retreat (currently used as a generously proportioned sitting room) with access to a private deck through a newly installed custom door. Additional features include central air, basement laundry and storage, and an unbeatable location within the Meredith School catchment, just steps from the Italian Market, neighborhood cafes, Angelo's Pizzeria, restaurants, and local favorites throughout Bella Vista and Queen Village.
