Description

If you’re looking for comfort, charm, and affordability, welcome to 215 8th Street! This inviting property greets you with a spacious, newly painted covered front porch — an ideal place to relax and enjoy the neighborhood. Step inside to a bright and welcoming living room, sized perfectly for both everyday living and entertaining. The room flows seamlessly into the formal dining room featuring rustic overhead lighting with fan, a sun-filled window, and access to the basement. A small adjacent closet adds convenient storage for cleaning supplies or small household items. Both the living and dining rooms feature newer flooring and paint, enhancing the home’s warm and cohesive feel. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint and is complete with cheerful finishes, chair rail detailing, and abundant storage. Two windows bring in generous natural light, creating a bright, inviting space. The kitchen is equipped with a Kenmore five-burner gas range and a Whirlpool refrigerator. Outside, you’ll find a spacious backyard with endless potential. Enjoy the covered back porch with an overhead fan, a garden bed ready for your flowers, and two storage sheds offering space for tools and garden supplies. The walkway also provides easy access to the front street. Upstairs, the home offers a thoughtful and flexible layout with two generously sized bedrooms, each with ample natural light (one with an overhead ceiling fan). The full bathroom is currently accessed through the primary bedroom, which also connects to a walk-in closet / nursery / small office area and a shared Jack-and-Jill closet between the two bedrooms. The existing footprint provides an easy opportunity for future owners to add a small hallway and create a more traditional shared-bath arrangement, if desired. See the MLS photos for a proposed layout concept. (uploading on 12/10) The large basement offers substantial storage, a washer and dryer, and houses the utilities. Including a 100-amp panel with circuit breakers, a 2012 Whirlpool hot water heater, and a 2014 Goodman HVAC system. Additionally, the main roof was replaced in 2012 and has been professionally coated twice since, as well as the porch roof being replaced in 2016 adding peace of mind for years to come. Street parking is readily available in addition to a resident only 8 car parking lot just a few houses down! Ideally located just minutes from I-95, this home offers convenient access to Philadelphia, Delaware, and New Jersey, as well as nearby shopping and dining. With its thoughtful updates, charming features, and manageable size, this property is an excellent option for a first-time buyer, someone seeking low-maintenance living, or an investor looking for a strong rental opportunity.
