A sunny, 3-bedroom 3.5-bath rowhouse in Bella Vista

Description

Our home is a sunny, spacious 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath, in a quiet and safe part of Philadelphia. The area is a walker's paradise convenient to grocery stores, pharmacies, and parks. We are steps away from the historic Italian Market with access to fresh produce and specialty gourmet shops, and Bella Vista is home to many of Philadelphia's best cafes, bars, and restaurants. You will be located at the heart of its burgeoning food scene. We are within easy walking distance of Philly's other vibrant neighborhoods, such as the historic Old City, Gayhorhood, Chinatown, Passyunk Square, and Rittenhouse Square. We are also close to Philadelphia’s main hospitals and medical schools, and we are located on the main bus and train routes to Temple University, University of Pennsylvania, and other institutions of higher learning. The home comes with an indoor garage parking space, a rare and very desirable feature of living in South Philadelphia as you will learn! The house offers a well-equipped kitchen (including dishwasher), private patio, and rooftop terrace. It has three spacious bedrooms, each with its own full en suite bathroom (with shower and bathtub). The first floor has a large, bright dining room leading to an outdoor brick patio with BBQ and planters for herbs or flowers. An open-concept kitchen with a smaller dining area occupies the second level, which is adjacent to the living room with a TV and sofas for relaxation. On the third level are two spacious bedrooms, each with full en suite bathrooms (with shower and bathtub). Both rooms can be used as bedrooms or studies, depending on your needs. The third floor also includes a laundry room with washer and dryer. The fourth level is a wide-open bedroom suite with a vaulted ceiling, gas fireplace, access to the terrace, and a large bathroom with a walk-in shower and whirlpool tub. The room features a king-sized bed and a large walk-in closet. The finished basement (with a large window) is furnished with a king-sized bed for extra guests, and gym equipment for an easy home workout. The four-story rowhome features beautiful hardwood flooring and 2-zone heating/cooling controlled by Nest thermostats. It’s a beautifully constructed and new home without the headaches of older structures in the area. We love living here and are looking for someone to take care of it while we are on sabbatical.
