Classic architecture, thoughtfully updated interiors, and inviting outdoor spaces come together in this charming University City home. A covered front porch sets a welcoming tone. Inside, the foyer leads to a living room with a gas fireplace and an adjoining dining room with French doors opening to the front porch. The updated eat-in kitchen features 42-inch custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a breakfast bar, a large closet/pantry, upgraded appliances, and French doors opening to the back patio and gardens. An updated guest bath completes the main floor.
A central staircase leads to three spacious bedrooms and a beautifully updated hall bath. One bedroom opens to a covered rear porch—a quiet spot to start or end the day. The lower level offers a comfortable family room, wine cellar, and generous storage.
Outside, a large patio with a built-in firepit provides space to gather, overlooking a level, fenced yard. A detached two-car garage completes this wonderful blend of character, comfort, and everyday convenience.
