Property Description

Welcome to the 500 Block of South Melville, a beautiful, tree lined, low traffic, one way one-block nestled in Spruce Hill's Penn Alexander School Catchment, subtly adjacent to Baltimore Avenue. This charming, spacious, two story row has three bedrooms and a additional space of the rear bedroom, great for a playroom or office, on the upper level. This home is a ready canvas, with strong bones, hardwood floors with decorative inlays, a bright sunporch, and a garage and driveway--so there never a need to search for parking. Considering the proximity of the trolley at the end of the block, a car may not even be necessary at all and the garage could be utilized as a studio space or bicycle parking. The property may benefit from some updating to meet the modern taste (unfinished basement, kitchen), but the home is already in move in condition. Those looking for long term growth will easily recognize the potential here being in the Penn Alexander catchment, two blocks from Clark Park, walking distance to Penn's campus and the University of the Sciences, and to the restaurants and shops on Baltimore Avenue- All for under 400k! Don't let this opportunity pass by.
