RARE Opportunity to purchase a beautiful detached corner property with nearly 200 feet of treelined frontage and additional greenspace of a private courtyard right in the Heart of Manayunk. Being centrally located, EXACTLY 2 blocks away from the heart of Main Street, you will have easy access to shopping and dining just a 1-2 minute walk away, an extremely manageable 5-minute walk to the train station, and also enjoy the many offerings of Pretzel Park, including a brand new playground for children, a weekly farmer's market every Saturday and a large dog walk that attracts pet owners from all over Manayunk, just 100 meters away. Inside, the current owners have made many tasteful updates to this move-in ready Colonial, imparting a warm contemporary feel. You will enter by way of a wonderfully spacious porch and be instantly greeted by newly installed and beautifully maintained red oak hardwood floors that run throughout the home. The oversized living room features 9 ft ceilings and offers abundant light, wall space for art, and an always welcome first floor powder room. Passing through a dining room that could serve various functions, a home office or even a billiard room, for example, you enter the kitchen - the heart of the home. Updated with granite countertops, tile flooring and upgraded cabinets, preparing meals for family and friends will be a breeze. A mobile island provides even more counter space and storage and there is even a walk-in pantry. From the kitchen, head outside onto your back porch which overlooks your private patio and garden! The porch has an integral storage shed equipped with utility sink and is designed to accept additional wall shelving. Back inside and up the main stairs, you will find your oversized master bedroom suite. The custom-designed en suite master bathroom provides your own private spa. With a massive walk-in shower, double vanity and hookup for a hot-rocks sauna, you will always have room to escape. A spacious (9'x10') walk-in closet is accessible via the (16' x 12') master bedroom and features a large modular wardrobe. Find a conveniently located laundry closet in the hallway right outside of the master bedroom. Down the hall, you will find a large 2nd bedroom that is highlighted by a gorgeous bay window. An updated full bathroom with porcelain tile floor, half-wrapped in subway tile with glass mosaic and completed by granite accents, serves this bedroom. A private 2nd staircase down to the kitchen makes this a perfect wing for guests! Two additional spacious bedrooms on the third level featuring eco-friendly cork flooring complete the floorplan. Throughout the home you will enjoy large pocket windows perfect for flowers and plants. An unfinished basement is ideally suited for additional storage. Many additional improvements have increased the function as well as the livability of the home. The roof was installed in 2012, a 10-year/10,000 gallon whole-house water filtration system was installed in late 2018, and electric was completely updated to remove all knob and tube wiring and meet current code. Due to the extensive renovation and additions, nearly all the plumbing in the home is new. Newer major appliances in kitchen and laundry are included. The home is currently zoned RSA-5 with potential to be converted to multifamily. This is the diamond in the rough that you have been looking for – don’t hesitate, call to schedule your showing today!
