Here’s a cute little trinity located on one of those picturesque little Philly streets that capture people’s hearts. It’s just like in the movies–boy walks girl home in charming, cozy neighborhood on a rainy day. Who wouldn’t want that?

This time, it doesn’t matter if you’re the boy or the girl — this home is a great place to start your journey through life as a homeowner. It’s located in the heart of Bella Vista, on a quiet, secluded European-style courtyard off an equally quiet side street.

The first floor is given over to a renovated eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and lots of storage. It’ll easily be your favorite space to enjoy the mornings, with the brick fireplace and the breakfast area awaiting your presence. The rear door leads to your own private rear patio that offers space for relaxing or intimate entertaining.

The second floor, with its own fireplace, is flexible and can be used as either a bedroom or living area. The third floor offers the main sleeping space. Other pluses include the generous storage in the basement, a two-year-old hot water heater, and a new climate control system including central air conditioning.

For first-time buyers or homeowners in Philadelphia, the short walk to two supermarkets, the Italian Market, East Passyunk Avenue, South Street and a variety of cafes, restaurants, shops, and public transportation makes this location a great place to live.
