1455 N EDGEWOOD STREET, PHILADELPHIA, PA 19151

This stylishly updated, move-in ready porchfront rowhome is a no-brainer for first-time buyers. The attractive facade with a contemporary deep blue-green and black color scheme sets the tone for inside, where fresh white walls are met with black door hardware, recessed lighting and contemporary light fixtures and ceiling fans throughout. Blond laminate floors run through the good-sized living room and separate dining room with a statement chandelier. The L-shaped kitchen with stacked elongated subway tile backsplash with charcoal grout and stainless steel Frigidaire appliance package, including a dishwasher and five-burner range, makes great use of space. There’s plenty of storage in white Shaker-style cabinets with black hardware and workspace on granite counters with undermount sink and black pulldown faucet. The adjoining mudroom leads to a nicely sized paved patio. The sunny upstairs bedrooms with brand-new engineered wood flooring share a hall bath with skylight, oversize black hex tile floor and black hardware that pops against the white walls and full-wall, stacked elongated subway tile surround with charcoal grout. The largest bedroom sits at the front; it has a west-facing bay window and a large closet. Both the good-sized rear bedroom, with two closets set into the original armoire trim, and the true middle bedroom are nice and bright from two exposures. On a quiet block in an area where flips are in the $200s, this home has nearby greenspace at Carroll Park and is super convenient to public transportation and both Haverford and Lansdowne commercial corridors.
