This beautiful home in South Philly offers the ideal blend of contemporary, urban living with stunning, old-style architecture. From your front steps you can walk to Marconi Park, the Sports complex or any of the local shops or restaurants. Hop on the subway and you’re in center city Philly in 15 minutes or a 5-minute drive you are out of the state. Open the front door and step from the front porch into the tiled entryway. You are enveloped in an oasis of cool colors, high ceilings, and the warmth of sunlight. With lovely hardwood floors and unique architectural designs, such as detailed woodwork and carved stairway, this living space invites you to linger a little while longer. The open layout of the living room and dining room creates an ideal space for entertaining. Walk beyond the dining room to the kitchen. The new granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances make this kitchen a chef’s dream. Out back, you can personalize your own secret garden within the courtyard space that includes built-in brick planters with landscaped trees! The arched gate has a timeless look about it with iron hardware on the dutch door- a storybook piece that adds curiosity and even more charm. After dinner, escape upstairs to the spacious, sunlit owner’s bedroom. Hardwood floors, raised ceiling, exposed brick, and ambient lighting create a stunning oasis. Built-in closets and shelving, with detailed woodwork, offer heaps of storage while adding a unique charm. Curl up for a lazy Saturday of Netflix, or finally read that novel you’ve had on your reading list forever. Two additional bedrooms are equally as spacious and inviting for kids or guests or even a home office. A full bathroom completes the upstairs. Downstairs you’ll find an expansive basement with laundry area, workspace, and utility sink. This home is warm and welcoming and has been maintained by the same family for 32 years with love and attention. Walk through this home for yourself and let your stories find their way inside these walls, envision unpacking your treasures and putting your feet up as you “cheers” to your new chapter unfolding on Rosewood Street.
