Trinity fans love them because of their ultra-efficient compact layouts and unique design.

In most cases, they’re as compact on the outside as they are on the inside, with only a diminutive rear patio for outdoor space.

This attractive trinity in Queen Village is an exception to that rule. Between its ample rear patio and the lovely courtyard it shares with its neighbors out front, there’s almost as much space for you to enjoy outside your home as within it.

Inside, there’s lots to like about this house too. Down below, you’ll find an up-to-date kitchen equipped with everything the serious cook needs, including a dishwasher and a farmhouse sink, plus a radiant heat floor.

The living room on the main floor boasts beautiful hardwood floors and a wood-burning fireplace.

The second floor consists of an updated designer bathroom, the laundry and a handsome den.

And on top you’ll find a bedroom with a skylit vaulted ceiling.

The front courtyard and rear patio turn your home into a quiet oasis for those times when you want to get away from urban excitement. Yet it’s right at your doorstep whenever you want to enjoy it. Bainbridge Green and South Street are just steps away to your north and Head House Square and the Delaware riverfront are just a little further away. Nearby SEPTA bus lines can take you to Old City and other Center City destinations when you don’t feel like walking.
