Amid a sea of development and bland new construction, here?s a three-story home with charm and potential galore for a savvy investor or the DIY homeowner. Solid original pine floors lay the groundwork for the open floorplan with separate L-shaped kitchen at the rear. Those cute mint cabinets and white appliances are in working order but the footprint would allow multiple configuration options to create your showpiece kitchen. Use the closet with original glass-paneled door in the dining area to create a perfectly organized panty. The patio out back is a nice size to set up an urban oasis, and Greensgrow is just a few minutes away to help get you started. The second floor is occupied by two spacious bedrooms; the one at the front features two built-in bookcases and a large closet, while the other has lovely natural light from windows on two walls. The full bath is downright huge with a soaking tub and floating vanity that just await your updates. The third floor is a true blank canvas; use the exposed beams and brick to guide your design or start from scratch to create the ultimate primary suite. The basement is available for all your storage and laundry needs. Located convenient to the El and Frankford Ave, this home puts all of Fishtown at your fingertips.
