Welcome to 2839 South 8th Street, a quintessential Philadelphia row home nicely tucked away on a quiet street in the East Marconi neighborhood. This two bed, one bath home offers so many conveniences and amenities, perfect for the first time home buyer; two outdoor spaces, abundance of natural light, fresh paint throughout, and the opportunity for private off street parking. At first glance, you'll find the front garden space surrounding a large old growth Yew tree and a patio, perfect for a bistro table or storage, as well as a hose bib for convenience when watering the garden. Once inside the home, you will appreciate the amount of sunlight, highlighting the fresh paint throughout, solid wood floors, and openness of the main living level. The dining area, with a Tiffany style hanging lamp, offers ample space for a nice sized dining table to welcome friends and family around. Maple cabinets, recessed lighting, and stainless steel appliances round out the well appointed kitchen. Upstairs you will find two bedrooms, a nice sized primary, and a secondary room, perfect for an office, guest room, or workout space. Additionally, in the hallway there is a brand new three piece bath with a timeless subway tile tub/shower surround and hex tile floor. Back downstairs, the walk out basement offers two defined areas, one offering ample storage space or the possibility of becoming a finished basement thanks to its nice ceiling height, and a laundry/utility section with W/D, and easily accessible mechanics. Through the basement door, the rear yard offers endless possibilities. A private little entertaining oasis? Urban farm? Or with an easy DIY removal of the fence, your own off street parking spot. Many neighbors have even built carports with decks above. Additional benefits are its location; just a few minutes away are access points to 76, 95, and the Walt Whitman bridge, making commuting a breeze, or a 10/15 min walk to the BSL to commute into center city. This home has been lovingly cared for and maintained throughout the years, and is ready to welcome its next owner.
