Property Description
Three-story Victorian-style twin home with mansard roof and huge side yard. Is this a duplex or a single family home? You choose. Fantastic three story twin, zoned as a 2-unit dwelling but set up as three OR rare opportunity for an owner-occupant who will live in one apartment, rent the 2nd, and use the 3rd studio apartment on the 3rd floor as a private in-home office, mother-in-law suite--or studio! Either way, this property is in superb condition with landscaped fenced side lot with treasured plantings including an historic red oak shade tree providing significant cooling in hot summer weather, possibly East Falls' largest! See floor plans posted here. 1st FLOOR: very attractive sunny 1 bedroom apartment with the high ceilings of a Victorian home. Large living room, large eat-in kitchen with exit to rear patio and side yard, very up-to-date full bath with shower stall, large bedroom with light-filled tall Victorian windows, handsome carved mantel, and antique floor to ceiling mirror. 2nd FLOOR: wonderful 1 bedroom apartment flooded with sunshine. From hall enter a large living room with decorative mantel. Large kitchen with plenty of storage. Full bathroom with shower over tub. Step up 3 steps to a bonus room (bedroom? office? playroom? exercise room?) which has another entrance to the hall. Large sun-filled bedroom with huge IKEA closet. 3rd FLOOR: bright studio apartment with plenty of storage, two windows, kitchenette, wall-mounted mini-split for heating and cooling and full bathroom with shower stall and skylight. FULL BASEMENT: unfinished, high ceilings, for utilities, storage and laundry. Gas hot air heater and gas hot water heater for 1st floor. Gas hot air heater and gas hot water heater for 2nd floor. Two 100 AMP CB electric panels: one for the 1st and 3rd floor together, and one for the 2nd floor. (We have electrician's estimate to combine 2nd and 3rd floor electric if desired.) Main mansard roof installed 2009. Main top pitched roof age unknown but maintained regularly with silver coating. East Falls is a walkable riverfront village boasting an active community association, variety of shops on Conrad Street and MIdvale Avenue (vegan restaurant around the corner, Le Bus Restaurant, Fiorino's on Indian Queen Lane, Vault & Vine flowers on Midvale, Wissahickon Brewing Company to name a few), popular Mifflin public elementary school 3 blocks away, private Penn Charter School nearby. Short walk to Jefferson University or to the East Falls campus of Drexel's medical school. The East Falls commuter station on the Norristown line is just down the street getting you to Center City in about 15 minutes. And all the recreational resources of the Schuylkill River (rowing, fishing, running, cycling) are just down the hill.
