728 S 20TH STREET, PHILADELPHIA, PA 19146

$567,000

Welcome home to 728 S 20th Street - a well proportioned home situated in Marian Anderson Neighborhood Academy catchment (formerly Chester Arthur) near the neighborhood's favorite restaurants and eateries and featuring both details that add character to the home as well as thoughtful updates. Enter through the vestibule entry and… Read More into the main living area which feels grand not only because the property is 17 ft wide, also because the ceiling height is higher than most. Details like the living room mantle, woodwork surrounding the front windows and at the stair banister, and crown molding all lend character to the home and make it feel special and warm. The kitchen is bright thanks to the large windows and under cabinet lighting, and with the additional island and pantry cabinet, you'll never run out of storage or counter prep space. For convenience, there is also a half bath on the first floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and the main bathroom. The primary bedroom can easily accommodate a king sized bed and features dual closets and continuation of the woodworking detail surrounding the windows. The main bathroom was beautifully renovated in 2021 to include white subway tile shower surround in a modern layout, large scale hex tile on the floor, a gorgeous emerald-colored vanity, and medicine cabinet for storage. The remaining two bedrooms on this level each have their own closets, and there is an additional storage/linen closet in the hallway. The main area of the basement is finished with LVP flooring and is currently set up with storage shelving along one wall, though previous owners used it as a rec room/tv room. Also in the basement is the laundry and storage room, as well as a bonus second full bath with shower. The back deck is an oasis in the city! The trex decking gives an elevated feel to the outdoor living space, which is large enough to accommodate a group of friends or family for outdoor entertaining and grilling. When it's too hot to be outside, you'll enjoy the central air conditioning inside the home, which was just replaced in June 2024 and has a 5 year warranty. In the neighborhood, you won't need to go far to find a good meal - Fitzwater Bagels is at the nearest intersection, Loco Pez is just 1 block away, and within 3 blocks are Pub & Kitchen, Sabrina's, Ultimo Coffee, and Sidecar Bar & Grille. The nearest parks and play areas include Marian Anderson Rec Center (with a pool in the summertime), Julian Abele Park, and Catharine Tot Lot, each within 3-5 blocks. Within a half to three-quarter mile are also Rittenhouse Square, Fitler Square, and Schuylkill River Park and Trail. Everyday conveniences like Target, Sprouts, Giant Heirloom, banks, etc are also within 1 mile or less walking/driving. Read Less
