About This Property

This extra-wide twin has all the right features: practical updates, uber-charming details, a spacious, airy floorplan and a large backyard. An enclosed front porch leads to the living room with original interior door, oversized front windows, side bay, decorative fireplace and turned staircase with original millwork. Wide original double doors open to the separate dining room with corner armoire. Tucked between the dining room and kitchen is the intact rear staircase. The kitchen offers ample storage and workspace with ceramic floors, a white hex tile backsplash and stainless steel Frigidaire appliances and leads to the powder room with washer and dryer. Whether you're a pet- or human-parent, an entertainer or a gardener, or some combination, the large rear yard offers endless possibilities. Upstairs the large front bedroom with bay window is adjacent to the handsome hall bath with full-wall veined ceramic tile tub surround and great natural light at the vanity. The rear bedroom has two exposures from four windows–one set into the original armoire. Both good-sized middle bedrooms are sun-soaked as well. This home overlooks greenspace on a tree-lined block that's less than two blocks from the Baltimore Ave trolley and offers easy access to recreation galore–Christy Rec center (with a pool) and Sherwood Park are steps away, while Cobbs Creek and Malcolm X parks are within easy reach. Please note photos were taken before current tenants moved in and property can be delivered vacant.
