2109 Murray St. Philadelphia PA

Welcome to a charming brick cape on a large, deep lot with fully-fenced back & side yards & driveway parking for two cars. This home is a tasteful blend of modernization and tradition, maintaining the cozy feel of a classic cape but with new baths, kitchen, windows, and heating system. It's been freshly painted in a modern, neutral color scheme, and features two-panel classic doors throughout the entire home. The main living area offers hardwood floors, a wood-burning brick fireplace, crown moldings & chair rail, and original arched doorways. The fully remodeled kitchen is spacious, filled with natural light, and boasts 40-inch cherry cabinets, ceramic tile floor, double sink, two windows, and a separate entry leading to the side & backyard. Two bedrooms on the first floor offer hardwood floors, custom trim, and generous closet space. A fully remodeled first floor bath features a tub/shower with ceramic tile surround, a ceramic tile floor, a pedestal sink, and brushed nickel fixtures, and there's a linen closet in the hall. The second floor has been completely renovated and designed as an open floor plan, "studio style" space. This light and bright area lends itself to many uses: main bedroom, home office, family room, etc. New drywall, recessed lighting and stylish wood-grain flooring comprise this versatile space. A second full bath on the second floor, completely remodeled, features a ceramic tile floor and stall shower. A side kitchen entrance also leads directly to the second floor. The full basement is accessed either from the interior of the house, or from the exterior through Bilco doors, making storage of even large items an easy feat. There's a separate storage shed, too. The impressive curb appeal of this home is created by a brick exterior accented by a Pennsylvania field stone retaining wall and a newer roof with architectural shingles. The maintenance-free siding, the new windows throughout, the 200-amp electric service, the newer furnace and water heater all mean the hard work's been done for you - you can just move in and enjoy. Add a convenient location to all its other charms, and this home deserves a reservation at the top of your must-see list!
