About This Property
When it comes to updating a Philly rowhome, the former artist-owner
of this extra-wide Fishtown/East Kensington gem proved that you can
break the mold. Working from a 17-foot-wide footprint, windows
galore and original random-width pine flooring, Bright Common
Architects' design created a floorplan with great flow and
incredible loft elements upstairs while utilizing passive solar
design. The kitchen's oversized black-and-white checkerboard
floors, refurbished vintage cabinets, sharp white appliances–GE
Artistry Series range, microwave and dishwasher and complementing
Fisher & Paykel fridge–create a retro-cool aesthetic, while a
peninsula with butcher block countertops, breakfast bar and inset
soapstone drying rack pack it with contemporary functionality. A
sweet first-floor powder room with a basin sink set on marble is
tucked behind a pocket door. Upstairs the massive front bedroom is
positively sun-soaked from two exposures and features a dramatic
lofted ceiling with white beams, gooseneck barn light sconces, and
a full wall of closets with custom systems. The good-sized rear
bedroom also has two exposures via four (!) windows and clever
built-ins. They share a bright and stylish hall bathroom with
subway tile tub surround with inset storage, large storage vanity
and basketweave tile floor. A bright and roomy laundry nook with
Samsung frontloaders and a folding station leaves the basement open
for storage. The incredibly spacious rear garden is set against a
cedar plank Trombe wall and is finished with pavers, and there's a
magical private breezeway with direct sidewalk access. Located on a
quiet little street off Frankford Ave, this home is three blocks
from the El and convenient to neighborhood favorites like Cook and
Shaker, Forin Cafe, Hello Donuts and Philadelphia Brewing Company.
