Welcome to this colorful and uniquely updated home in the heart of one of South Philly~s most desirable neighborhoods! The ship lap vestibule welcomes you to original 1920~s era wall paper that has been kept in pristine condition. The main floor offers refinished original hardwood floors throughout and a large living room with an additional space, perfect for working from home, storing bicycles or maybe even a mini yoga retreat? The possibilities are endless with this bright and cheery flex space! Hang your coat in the coat closet and cozy up to the custom built cherry fireplace in the living room. The hand painted silhouettes in the dining room spark plenty of conversation with dinner guests. The kitchen has been carefully updated using renewable and recycled materials making it a ~green kitchen~, featuring cork floors, recycled compress cardboard counters, recycled glass tile back splash and get this~ a section of countertop made from shredded and compressed REAL dollar bills! If you love Philadelphia architecture, you~re likely to be familiar with the recently restored Devine Lorraine Hotel. This is your chance to own a piece of that history with the salvaged glass French doors leading from the kitchen to the back ~sun room~ where you~ll find a cute half bathroom and entrance to the back patio area. The back patio is landscaped using grinding stones from a 150 year old farmhouse in Frankford. Follow the original railings up to the second floor to relax in the large back room that leads to one of 3 roof deck areas. You~ll also find a full bathroom with a claw foot tub, a front bedroom with restored original built-in armoire and nicely sized middle bedroom. Keep counting the stairs as you walk up to the third floor where you~ll find the master bedroom with exposed beams and brick as well as a 5th bedroom. Enter through the custom iron double doors to the 2nd roof deck area and up the staircase to the main roof deck with unobstructed 360 degree views of the city and a picture perfect view of the skyline. This location is a walker~s paradise being only a few blocks from Sprout~s Market and the Lincoln Square complex. The public library and DiSilvestro playground are just around the corner, and East Passyunk Avenue is just a short stroll away to enjoy shopping and restaurants. There is also as easy access to the Broad St subway line and SEPTA bus routes.
