About this home
Welcome to this newly renovated four-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath townhome in the Nicetown-Hunting Park area. As you approach, you’ll notice the open front porch—a perfect spot to relax outdoors. Step inside to a vestibule that leads through a stained-glass door into the spacious living room. Large windows with a built-in sitting area create an ideal reading nook, while a decorative fireplace with a new fireplace insert, provides extra warmth and adds charm and character.
Freshly stained hardwood floors flow seamlessly from the living room into the dining room. The open kitchen offers plenty of space for a dining table or a center island. It features brand-new appliances, including a stove, microwave, dishwasher and a refrigerator. At the rear of the kitchen, you’ll find a convenient half bath and a storage area for extra appliances or pantry needs.
Up the newly stained staircase, a full bathroom awaits with a deep soaking tub and recessed lighting. Toward the back, a generously sized bedroom that can serve as a primary suite or a cozy den. To the left of the bathroom, you’ll find two additional bedrooms, including a front-facing room with large windows and a spacious closet. Each bedroom is equipped with its own ceiling fan.
The home also offers a full basement—clean, versatile, and ready to be used as a recreation area, home gym, or additional storage space. The basement also includes laundry hookups for a washer and dryer, along with a convenient walk-out to the small rear yard—perfect for easy access to outdoor living and entertaining.
This move-in-ready property combines modern updates with timeless character—an excellent choice for comfortable city living.
