1732 Addison St

Φιλαδέλφεια, PA 19146

Walking home down Addison Street with its trees lit year round never gets old! Looking to live on a street that can make you smile every time you leave home or return, where everyone could know your name (or help grab errant packages!) ? This is that street! This wide no-parking block with minimal traffic means not only is it picturesque and quiet, but it is easy to pull up in front of your home to unload your car without worrying about blocking traffic. This 17 foot wide and extra deep home is a rare find on the block with 4 large bedrooms- the 4th bedroom is currently a 2nd floor den with office nook- and 2 full bathrooms. Enter the home into the living room with high ceilings, built in shelving, gas fireplace with vintage tile and elaborate wood mantle. The stairs are located in the middle of the home, and pass them on either side to enter the large eat in kitchen featuring sizable windows and unique tile floor uncovered during a past renovation. All windows here look out on the small side and rear patio which were modeled after a chic loading dock and feature a large outdoor storage closet and rolling back walls that allow you a better view of the mews behind the home. No need to pull your trash through the home each week since you share a private alley with next door that leads from the side patio right out onto Addison. The second floor rear is currently used as a large secondary den with a wall full of windows and a library/office nook. Previously- this room was a 4th bedroom with walk in closet. In the front of the 2nd floor is an updated bathroom with tub and amazing wallpaper. The 2nd floor front bedroom with closet has large windows and is very spacious as it extends over the alley allowing for more square feet. There is a large closet on this landing that extends all the way over- a perfect place to open the wall and add in some more open display shelving while still keeping the current closet! The 3rd floor back bedroom has 3 closets: a walk in closet, a shelving closet and a deep reach in closet, and was last used as an owners luxuriously sized dressing room. The 3rd floor front bedroom (which again extends over the alley) is large and features an updated en suite with walk in shower and closet. The 3rd floor landing has a deep closet and another closet that contains stairs leading to an old access hatch to the roof. The roof access was covered over at some point in the past, but the home next-door has similar entry to their own large roof deck. The basement was recently sealed and is clean storage and houses the washer, dryer & mechanicals. Greenfield Catchment, less than 3 blocks to Rittenhouse Square, grocery store, monthly garage parking, dry cleaners, restaurants, shops.... the best! Home has been updated throughout ownership and has newer windows and in the last 3 years new water and sewer lines from home to street.
