Excellent rowhome, fully renovated in 2012 with new roof, new HVAC, new windows, new deck, new kitchen, new floors and master bedroom suite, new baths. And since that time, the owner has kept her home beautifully. This is a 3 bedroom row home with 2 1/2 baths. The entry is large enough for furniture and leads to an open plan with large living room, formal dining room and a kitchen made for a great cook: stainless steel appliances including electric cooking, microwave, dishwasher, stainless steel sink with garbage disposal, plenty of cabinets and good counterspace. This kitchen is large enough for its own eating space. Behind the kitchen is a clean-as-a whistle mud room with powder room. Exit to a large deck high over the long green back yard that leads to a detached one car garage. The second floor offers the sunny master bedroom with its own bath with shower over tub, a second bedroom that is cleverly used currently as an enormous walk-in closet, a hall bath with shower over tub, and a third bedroom at the rear. There is a full basement, unfinished, but in such nice condition with a high ceiling that the current owners have used it as living space, too. Other parts of the basement house the utilities: electric hot air and cold central air, electric hot water heater, and 100 AMP circuit breaker service panel. The washer and dryer are there too, and an exit to the yard. Good thing to know: Even though no gas is used in the house now, there is a gas pipe that could be used if a new buyer wished to do so. This home is located in Southwest Germantown, one of the city's gems: a little known residential neighborhood that is quiet and peaceful yet sits not far from the juncture of the Roosevelt Boulevard Extension to the Expressway with Wissahickon Avenue. One is either 15 minutes from Center City by car, or a short walk to the Queen Lane commuter train station to Center City. Fernhill Park's green lawns and tennis courts are nearby. Please don't miss the virtual tour posted for this property!
